Cold-Installing HP-UX 11i v1

Chapter 586

Step 6. You are prompted to answer a few questions before you can use the

system. The first is whether or not you plan to use the system on a

network. Enter the basic network information for your system.

Step 7. Confirm your choices. You are now finished with the install procedures

and presented with a login screen.

Step 8. Log in to the system as root.

Step 9. After the cold-install, store the HP-UX CDs or DVDs in a safe place. You

may need them to install drivers or other software later.

Step 10. After installing or updating applications, insert the HP-UX Support Plus

CD and install the Quality Pack patch bundles to fix defects in the

operating system and OE applications to ensure your system is

functioning at the highest quality. For example:

/usr/sbin/swinstall -s /cdrom/GOLDQPK11i \

-x patch_match_target=true -x autoreboot=true

The depot named GOLDQPK11i includes two quality pack bundles,

GOLDBASE11i, which provides defect fixes for the Base OE (including the

always-installed and selectable driver products), and GOLDAPPS11i,

which provides defect fixes for the OE applications.
