Disk Space Requirements for an Update
To ensure a successful update to HP-UX 11i v1, make sure that you have
at least as much disk space allocated to the file partitions listed in
Table 2-1 on page 34, and that each partition (most importantly, /usr,
/opt, and /var) has at least 10-20 percent free space to allow for any
growth. Additionally, make sure that you have at least 1 GB allocated for
/swap.
Extra Space
Needed with TCOE
and MTOE
Cold-installing or updating the HP-UX 11i v1 Technical Computing OE
(TCOE) and the Minimal Technical OE (MTOE) installs all CDE
languages rather than just a selected language.
To remove unneeded CDE language bundles after installing the TCOE or
MTOE, list them using swlist and remove unneeded bundles using
swremove. You can also choose to deselect unneeded bundles during the
installation process. For information on how to deselect software bundles
that are installed by default during a cold-install, see “Task 4:
Deselecting OE Software Bundles” on page 80. For information on how to
deselect software bundles that are installed by default during an update,
see “Task 3: Using update-ux (Required)” on page 99.
See Chapter 8, “Verifying System Install or Update,” on page 117 for
examples of swlist and swremove. Refer to the HP-UX 11i v1 Release
