Making Depots
It is a good idea to gather the various pieces of software into depots that you can use
with the swinstall command. These instructions tell you how to prepare three
combination depots. You will need at most three of them: one administration depot and
one or two agent depots. The three depots are described in Table 2-3.
After you select the two or three that you need, we recommend you go through the rest of
this section and the next one (“Installing the Depots” on page 28) and mark the substeps
that you will need to complete.
Create the Depot Directory
Step 1. Log in as superuser (root) on a system where you can build a software depot. The current
or intended HP-UX HIDS administration system is a good choice.
Step 2. If it does not exist, create the base directory for the depots now.
mkdir /var/depot
Get Patches for HP-UX 11i v1
Perform this procedure only if one or more of your agent systems is running HP-UX 11i
v1 (PA).
