Will Installing HP-UX HIDS Release 3.1 Reboot My Agent System?
The installation scripts for HP-UX HIDS try to avoid unnecessary system reboots. However,
in some circumstances, a system reboot might be required. Those circumstances are (in order
of priority):
1. If you choose the Reinstall Filesets option in the graphical interface to swinstall, all
HP-UX HIDS filesets will be installed, and a system reboot will occur.
2. If you pass the -x reinstall=true option to the command-line invocation of swinstall,
all HP-UX HIDS file sets will be installed, and a system reboot will occur.
3. If you are installing HP-UX HIDS Release 3.1 on a system for the first time (a fresh
install), a reboot will occur.
4. If you upgrade HP-UX HIDS from Release 1.0 or 2.x to Release 3.1, a reboot will occur.
