Re-installing SD-UX
The software product called SW-DIST provides all SD-UX functionality,
commands, and tools. This product is included on your HP-UX 11i media.
If the files that make up SW-DIST are deleted or corrupted, you may need
to re-install the product. The install-sd command lets you install the
SD-UX product from HP-UX 11i media or a depot. This command also
installs any SD-UX patches that exist in the source depot.
•The install-sd command is not supported on HP-UX versions
10.20 or 11.00.
You need the 11i version of SW-DIST to install or copy any HP-UX
software that has been packaged in the 11i SD-UX format.
The update-ux command replaces the swgettools script used by
previous versions of SD-UX for OS updates.

Prerequisites
The install-sd command and an accompanying swagent.Z file require at
least 2 MB of free space in the /var/tmp directory. If there is not enough
space in this directory, install-sd will fail. To determine if /var/tmp has
adequate space, enter:
bdf /var/tmp
