Mixed OS (HP-UX 11i v1/v2/v3) Considerations in vPars

Mixed HP-UX 11i v1/v2 vPars
vPars A.04.05 was released with HP-UX 11i v2 (11.23) and is designed to support a mixed HP-UX
11i v1/v2 vPars environment. This mixed environment allows the user to boot a vPars A.04.05
monitor that supports virtual partitions running both HP-UX 11i v1 and HP-UX 11i v2 in the same hard
partition as shown below in Figure 3. Note that the virtual partitions running HP-UX 11i v1 must
have vPars A.03.05 or later installed for it to operate in a mixed HP-UX 11i v1/v2 vPars environment.
Since HP-UX 11iv1 is supported only on PA-RISC systems, support for mixed HP-UX 11i v1/v2 vPars
environment is applicable for PA-RISC systems only.
