HP-UX Host Intrusion Detection System Release 4.0 Release Notes for HP-UX 11i v1 | HP-UX 11i v2 | HP-UX 11i v3

Preinstallation
Before installing Release 4.0 on a system that has a previous version of HP-UX HIDS
installed and running, HP recommends that you stop the idsagent process.
IMPORTANT: For systems that do not currently have any version of HP-UX HIDS
installed, HP recommends that you make a full backup of all administration and agent
systems before you install HP-UX HIDS. Installation on agent systems requires a kernel
rebuild (automatic) and reboot.
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 least two of them: one administration depot and
one or two agent depots. Table 2-3 lists and describes these depots.
After you select the two or three that you need, HP recommends that you go through
the rest of this section and “Installing the Depots” (page 33) and mark the substeps
that you will need to complete.
