2 Choosing a Migration Path This chapter provides information and scenarios to help you decide the most appropriate method to migrate your system to HP-UX 11i v2.
Choosing a Migration Path If You Have an Existing HP-UX 11i v2 System If You Have an Existing HP-UX 11i v2 System If your system is already running HP-UX 11i v2, you may only need to install one or more patch bundles to bring your system up-to-date or to enable new hardware. Check the following references: 34 • “Keeping Up to Date with the Latest Critical Patches” on page 134 • http://itrc.hp.com • http://software.hp.
Choosing a Migration Path Migrating from Previous HP-UX Releases Migrating from Previous HP-UX Releases You can cold-install HP-UX 11i v2 and its accompanying operating environment on any supported system listed in “Supported Servers and Workstations” on page 62. You can also choose to update to HP-UX 11i v2 from any of the supported paths listed in Table 2-1. Updating from any other release directly to HP-UX 11i v2 is not supported.
Choosing a Migration Path Migrating from Previous HP-UX Releases Table 2-1 OE Update Migration Paths to HP-UX 11i v2 To the following HP-UX 11i v2 OS/OEa From Current Configuration HP-UX 11i v1.6 Base OS • Base OS • Foundation OE • Technical Computing OE (Technical Servers only) HP-UX 11i v1.6 OE • Foundation OE HP-UX 11i v1.6 TCOE • Technical Computing OE (Servers only) HP-UX 11i v1.
Choosing a Migration Path Migrating from Previous HP-UX Releases Update Path Notes • If you are planning to update to a higher level server operating environment from a current HP-UX 11i v1.6 server operating environment (for example, HP-UX 11i v1.6 Foundation OE (base OE) to HP-UX 11i v2 Enterprise OE), you must proceed using the following steps: 1. Update to HP-UX 11i v2 Foundation OE 2.
Choosing a Migration Path Deciding Which Method to Use Deciding Which Method to Use Now that you have evaluated your system and ordered any additionally needed hardware, you need to decide whether to cold-install or update to HP-UX 11i v2 on your system. Cold-installing using Ignite-UX — This method overwrites everything on the target disk. Use cold-install for new systems and on existing systems when overwriting the root (/) volume will not cause loss of applications or data.
Choosing a Migration Path Deciding Which Method to Use • Your system configuration is not listed as a supported update path (see Table 2-1, “OE Update Migration Paths to HP-UX 11i v2,” on page 34). • You are migrating an HP Workstation to HP-UX 11i v2. You can cold-install from any supported configuration (see “Supported Servers and Workstations” on page 62). See Chapter 4, “Preparing to Migrate to HP-UX 11i v2,” on page 69 for more information about preparing your system for cold-install.
Choosing a Migration Path Deciding Which Method to Use You may need to select or specify other available networking drivers to enable other cards on your system (see “HP-UX 11i v2 Always-Installed Network & Mass Storage Drivers” on page 192). This can easily be done during the cold-install or update by following the instructions in “Cold-installing HP-UX 11i v2” on page 91.
Choosing a Migration Path Deciding Which Method to Use Alternate Cold-Install Methods In addition to the procedures described in this chapter, you can cold-install your system using the following methods: • Install from Software Depots Use Software Distributor commands to create depots containing OS, OE, and other software bundles, then install from the depot using Ignite-UX.
Choosing a Migration Path Deciding Which Method to Use Update Considerations VERITAS Enterprise Administrator Server Must Be Stopped Prior To Update Prior to updating to the latest version of HP-UX 11i v2, the VERITAS Enterprise Administrator (VEA) Server process must be stopped. Failure to do so will result in Update-UX not updating the VEA Server bundle on your system (see “VERITAS Enterprise Administrator Bundle Excluded During Update” on page 158).

Choosing a Migration Path Deciding Which Method to Use Using the HP-UX 11i v2 DVDs on an HP-UX 11i v1 (B.11.11) System If you plan to read the HP-UX 11i v2 DVDs on an HP-UX 11i v1 system, or update HP-UX 11i v2 from a depot on an HP-UX 11i v1 system, then you need to install the PHKL_28025 patch in order to read the DVDs. The PHKL_28025 patch is in the GOLDBASE11i bundle as of June 2003, which you can find on the Support Plus media for HP-UX 11i v1 or at the following web site: http://itrc.hp.
Choosing a Migration Path Install-time Security Considerations Install-time Security Considerations Beginning with HP-UX 11i v2, HP-UX Bastille (B6849AA) is included as default-installed software on the Operating Environment media and can be installed with Ignite-UX or Update-UX. HP-UX Bastille is a security hardening/lockdown tool that can be used to enhance security of the HP-UX operating system.
Choosing a Migration Path Install-time Security Considerations Security Choice Dependencies The Sec00Tools security infrastructure bundle is default-installed on your system. While this bundle does not implement any security changes at install- or update-time, it does ensure that the required software (see Figure 2-1) is installed. By installing Sec00Tools, you can opt to run HP-UX Bastille at a later time to lock down your system.
Choosing a Migration Path Install-time Security Considerations Secured Services and Protocols Each security configuration bundle provides incrementally higher security by locking down various protocols and services. HP-UX Bastille uses a series of questions to determine which services and protocols to secure. Using one of the Install-time Security Configuration bundles applies a default security profile, simplifying the lockdown process.

Choosing a Migration Path Standard HP-UX Bundle Considerations Standard HP-UX Bundle Considerations Overview Standard HP-UX bundles supply diagnostics and patches for HP-UX core files, applications, and diagnostic products. These bundles enable new hardware and fix known defects, and provide diagnostics tools. In some cases, a patch may deliver new software functionality. All bundle software is cumulative and replaces completely any previous bundle release for the same operating system (OS) release.
Choosing a Migration Path Standard HP-UX Bundle Considerations NOTE Please note that in the HP-UX 11.0 and 11i v1 releases, diagnostics and patch bundles are provided on a separate piece of media labeled “Support Plus” that has its own corresponding documentation. In HP-UX 11i v2, diagnostics and patch bundles are supplied on the core media and we include the documentation in this guide.
Choosing a Migration Path Standard HP-UX Bundle Considerations Methods to Install or Update the Bundles You have three ways to install or update diagnostics and patch bundles: 1. From core OE media the bundles are always-installed for install and update. You do not have the option to deselect the bundles. 2. From an Ignite-UX server (golden image) you have the option to select or deselect the bundles for install. See the Ignite-UX Administration Guide. 3.

Known Problems and Troubleshooting Character-code Handling with Perl Character-code Handling with Perl Although Perl 5.6.1 does not directly support wide characters, its experimental support of Unicode may be a suitable solution. JPerl 5.005_003 is another solution to handle Japanese multi-byte characters albeit by an older version of Perl. What to Do Get the patch jperl5.005_03 and apply it to Perl. This patch is open source and available at a number of non-HP FTP sites. Follow these steps: Step 1.

Controlling Memory Utilization of VxFS 3.5 on HP-UX 11i v2 C Controlling Memory Utilization of VxFS 3.5 on HP-UX 11i v2 This appendix discusses the effect of two VxFS tunables, vx_ninode and vxfs_bc_bufhwm, on system memory consumption and provides guidelines on setting them for machines with relatively low RAM.
Controlling Memory Utilization of VxFS 3.5 on HP-UX 11i v2 Introduction Introduction VxFS 3.5 resorts to caching objects in memory as a way to improve performance. Most of the memory consumed by VxFS is used to cache inodes (in the inode cache) and metadata (in the buffer cache). The sizes of these caches and the behavior of VxFS are controlled by a set of tunables.
Controlling Memory Utilization of VxFS 3.5 on HP-UX 11i v2 Controlling the inode Cache Controlling the inode Cache As a matter of course, VxFS file systems allocate and free up inodes as required by the load on the file system. VxFS caches these inodes for better performance (faster lookups). In general, larger inode caches help file systems perform better for file/web server loads. The global (static) tunable vx_ninode represents the maximum possible size of the VxFS inode cache.
Controlling Memory Utilization of VxFS 3.5 on HP-UX 11i v2 Controlling the Buffer Cache Controlling the Buffer Cache VxFS 3.5 implements a private buffer cache used exclusively for metadata. The allocations made for this buffer cache are not static but grow and shrink during system usage, depending on the load on the file system. The global (static) tunable vxfs_bc_bufhwm represents the maximum possible size of the VxFS buffer cache.
Controlling Memory Utilization of VxFS 3.5 on HP-UX 11i v2 Conclusion Conclusion VxFS uses in-memory caches for objects that result in improved file system performance. The cache sizes are controlled by tunables that are auto-tuned at boot time by the driver. For situations where the auto-tuned values are not optimal, you are provided with the ability to set these tunables.
