Cold-Installing HP-UX 11i v1

Chapter 5 79

Some initial calculations have been performed by the install program,

and a recommended value has been set for you. You can either accept this

value or change it before continuing.

Step 5. On the File System Type screen, select the type of file system you want

to use. Unless you have other requirements, use the default value chosen

by the install program.

NOTE If you select VxVM, the root disk cannot be moved to another SCSI bus or

address that results in a change in the hardware path to the device. If it

is moved, you may not be able to boot safely from it. This is similar to the

limitation present in LVM.

Step 6. On the Root Group screen, specify how many disks you want placed into

the root disk volume group. If you have more than one disk, select Yes to

choose the Striping option.

Step 7. On the Languages screen, browse the available languages, marking the

desired selections. During the first boot, you may have been asked this

already.

Step 8. On the Additional Software screen, select any additional software

that you want loaded onto your system. Browse the list, marking your

selections, then continue to the next step.

Step 9. On the Pre-Install Disk Information screen, identify which disks to

overwrite during the install process. If you see a disk in the list that you

do not want included, back up to the root disk selection and choose

another disk. Otherwise, continue on to the next step.

Step 10. On the Pre-Install Check Information screen, review any errors,

warnings, or notes. Warnings are simply informational. If there are any

errors, you need to resolve them before the installation can continue.

Step 11. On the System Summary screen, use the

Show Summary button to view a

summary of how your system will be configured. If you see any problems,

or want to change any of your selections, back up to the appropriate step,

and make the needed changes. Otherwise, select

Finish (at the bottom of

the tabs). You can

Cancel at this time. If you cancel, you can start again.
