Step 4. (Optional) Create a software depot to minimize system reboots
Creating a depot is beneficial when you are completing two or more of the following
tasks:
• Installing patch bundles (GOLDQPK11i or HWEnable11i)
The patch bundles include kernel patches. Installation of a patch bundle
requires a system reboot.
• Installing PHKL_* patches
The PHKL_* patches are HP-UX kernel patches. Installation of these patches
requires a system reboot.
• Installing/upgrading WLM
The installation or upgrade of WLM requires a kernel rebuild and system
reboot.
Completing two or more of the above tasks will cause multiple reboots unless you
create a software depot. With a depot including all the patches, the patch bundles,
and WLM, you can combine the installation steps into a single operation, thereby
limiting the number of installation reboots that must occur.
If you do not mind multiple reboots or your system will not be subject to multiple
reboots because its software is up-to-date, proceed to Step 5, “Disable PRM from
starting automatically” on page 33.
In order to install these items with a single swinstall(1M) command, all of the
related filesets must be collected into a single software depot distribution directory.
The following steps outline how to create a software depot. The steps use examples
showing how to include the following items in your depot:
• Quality Pack GOLDQPK11i (also known as a patch bundle)
• Patch PHKL_32619
•perl
•WLM
NOTE To satisfy SD-UX, it may be necessary to copy dependency filesets
into this common depot.
