HP-UX 11i Version 2 May 2005 Release Notes

General System Administration
Ignite-UX
Chapter 5
123
Summary of Change
Ignite-UX, version C.6.2. x delivers the following:
• The “Creating Your Own Installation Media” chapter of the Ignite-UX
Administration Guide has been updated to include the creation of installation DVDs.
Additionally, the process of creating installation CDs has been updated.
• The Ignite-UX binaries are no longer linked to libc.1 (known to work incorrectly
with modern NSS/PAM technologies) to allow Ignite-UX to function correctly in an
LDAP environment.
• The missing dependencies in the BOOT-KRN-11-00 and BOOT-KRN-11-22 filesets in
Version C.6.1.
x have been corrected so that the Ignite-IA-11-00 and
Ignite-IA-11-22 bundles install properly.
•The make_config command has been enhanced to include a header that indicates
the file name, creation time, and Ignite-UX version used to create the file.
• The support for reading CUSTOM files from the LIF area on all disks has been
removed to improve the invocation time of the Ignite-UX user interface.
•The save_config command:
— Was corrected to execute properly when both LVM and VxVM volumes are active
on a system and one of the LVM logical volumes has a unmounted VxFS file
system.
— When a file system is CDFS, gives a WARNING message that the contents of this
file system cannot be included in the back-up.
— Handles the VxVM “lazy/alternate” device files correctly. However, VERITAS
does not recommend the use of the “lazy” set of device files.
• Partial-system recovery archives can now be used to clone other systems.
• The Patch PHKL_32037 delivered in the December 2004 HP-UX 11i v1 (11.11) HWE
patch bundle, and included in the IUX WINSTALL kernel, could create a boot hang so
it has been removed from the kernel in this release. The issue arises on the following
HP servers if they contain a FXE graphics card (A4982A or A6150B):
— server models (rp3410, rp3440, rp4440, rp5430, and rp5470)
• The postconfigure script, which formally produced an error for inactive volume
groups during the recovery of a Serviceguard system, has been resolved.
• The patch for the pax (1) command for HP-UX v1 (B.11.11) was updated from
PHCO_28414 to the current patch PHCO_30420.
• The following commands have been added to enable functionality that will be
included in a future release of Ignite-UX. They should not be used with the current
release.
— /opt/ignite/binia/make_ipf_tape
— /opt/ignite/lbinia/ansitape
— /opt/ignite/lbinia/writetapedb
Modifications have been made to make_tape_recovery (1M) to enable new
functionality for a future release.
• Ignite-UX manpages and online help are now available in Japanese.
