HIDS Becomes Unbundled during Update
The following warning message may appear in your swagent.log after
the update process, or from running swverify.
* [20255] Running “checkinstall” script for fileset
“IDS.IDS-AGT-KRN”.
WARNING: Excluding fileset IDS-AGT-KRN because the IDDS driver is
already configured. An unbundled IDS-AGT-KRN fileset may
result. If your system contains an unbundled IDS-AGT-KRN
fileset, the installation, configuration and operation of
HP-UX Host IDS is not affected. You can safely ignore the
unbundled IDS-AGT-KRN fileset.
NOTE: [20259] The “checkinstall” script for “IDS.IDS-AGT-KRN
gave an “exclude” return (exit code “3”). The script location was
“/var/tmp/BAAa04878/catalog/IDS.2/IDS-AGT-KRN/checkinstall”.
NOTE: [140257] This software will be excluded from further
processing.
* [20255] Running “checkinstall” script for fileset
