Reinstalling iCOD Software
Preserving current iCOD information
If you reinstall HP-UX on an iCOD system (for example, installing
HP-UX by either cold-installing or installing from a “golden image”), all
information in the iCOD configuration file disappears unless you do the
following:
1. Before the reinstall, manually save your iCOD data and processor
allocation history by backing up the following files:
a. /etc/.iCOD_data
b. /var/adm/.iCOD_log
c. /var/adm/.iCOD_log.back
These files will be restored in
Step 3 below.
2. Reinstall the iCOD B.05.x software bundle B9073AA from the
Support Plus media or the HP Software Depot (software.hp.com).
3. Restore your iCOD data and processor allocation history files:
a. /etc/.iCOD_data
b. /var/adm/.iCOD_log
c. /var/adm/.iCOD_log.back
If this is not done, you will lose all of the iCOD change history and
contact information.
Installing “Golden Images” on a non-iCOD System
If you attempt to install a golden image of an iCOD B.05.x system onto
another (non-iCOD) HP enterprise server, the result on the target
system is an invalid installation. That is, the iCOD B.05.x software will
be in a non-operational state. You can successfully remove the iCOD
software when the system is in this state by entering the following
command:
/usr/sbin/swremove B9073AA
