Hardware Enablement Patch Bundle for HP-UX 11i v2
The Hardware Enablement Patch Bundle for HP-UX 11i v2 (HWEnable11i) provides
patches required for new systems and for add-on hardware supported on HP-UX 11i v2,
including I/O adapters and devices.
Summary of Change
The HWEnable11i bundle for June 2006 includes HP-UX support for the future release of
the new “Dual-Core Intel Itanium (2) processor 9000 sequence” in the following HP
servers:
HP Integrity rx2620 server (2 sockets) with zx1 chipset
HP Integrity rx4640 server (4 sockets) with zx1 chipset
HP Integrity rx7640 server (8 sockets) with sx2000 chipset

HP Superdome server (16 sockets) with sx2000 chipset

Minimal HP-UX support will require other HWE components from the June 2006 OE
Update release that includes diagnostics and I/O driver bundles, along with the
Ignite-UX product. HP recommends an update to the desired OE option from the June
2006 OE Update release for full HP-UX support with the latest versions of the
manageability and configuration tools.
