HP-UX Host Intrusion Detection System Release 4.1 Release Notes for HP-UX 11i v1 | HP-UX 11i v2

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
HP recommends that administrators 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 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 depots that you need, HP recommends that you go
through “Installing the Depots” (page 42) and mark the substeps that you will need
to complete.
