Common Install and Update Error and Warning Messages
Appendix B154
Multiple OE Errors Installing both the HP-UX 11i Operating Environment and
the Enterprise Operating Environment on the same system is
not a standard update path. If you continue with this
operation, use the swremove(1M) to remove the Enterprise
Operating Environment after the update is complete.
Complete the update. Then remove the HPUX11i-OE-Ent
bundle using the swremove command.
Changing from the Enterprise Operating Environment to
the Mission Critical Operating Environment at the
same time as you change from a 32 bit OS to a 64 bit
OS is not a tested operation...
Although you can change OS word-width and move from one
OE to another at the same time, we recommend performing
separate operations. In this case:
• Update OS to new word-width:
/usr/sbin/update-ux -s /cdrom -a 64
• Install the desired OE:
/usr/sbin/update-ux -s /cdrom HPUX11i-OE-MC
For more about changing OEs, see “Adding or Upgrading an
OE” on page 106.
