Using Software Distributor Tools
The latest version of Software Distributor (SD) tools are installed when
you cold-install or use the update-ux command to update your OS. If,
after updating the OS, you find that an SD tool is missing or out-of-date,
you need to update the entire SD toolset to the latest version from
HP-UX 11i v1 media.
Updating SD is easily accomplished using the install-sd command.
See “Re-installing SD” on page 187 in Appendix B for details.
Managing Software Depots
After updating your depot-management server to HP-UX 11i v1, you can
manage HP-UX 10.20, 11.0 and 11i software on the same system. This is
the preferred depot-management solution. If your depot-management
server is running HP-UX 11.0 and has Ignite-UX version 3.5 or higher, it
can also handle 10.20, 11.0 and 11i depots. However, if your 11.0
depot-management server is running an Ignite-UX version lower than
3.5, it will not be able to handle 11i depots.
For help setting up and using a depot-management server, see Chapter 4
in the Software Distributor Administration Guide, available on the
Instant Information CD and on this web site:
