Create the Depot Directory
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.
2. If it does not exist, create the base directory for the depots as follows:
# mkdir /var/depot
Get Patches for HP-UX 11i v2 Operating Systems
NOTE: If you are running HIDS v4.1 on HP-UX 11i v3, you do not have to install any patches.
Perform this procedure only on agent systems running 11i v2 (PA-RISC / Itanium-based).
NOTE: If you have installed any software updates, some of these patches may already be
present on your systems. You can first install the HP-UX HIDS software and run the
/opt/ids/bin/IDS_checkInstall command to check the patches that you do not need to
download.
If you attempt to install a patch that is already there, the swinstall command will note that
fact and just install the other patches.
1. Log in as superuser (root) on the depot system; see “Create the Depot Directory” (page 22).
2. Create a directory in which you can save the patches and make a temporary depot. This
procedure uses /var/tmp/idspatch_11i.
3. Go to the HP Support Website:
