Patches and Patch Bundles
For vPars A.04.03, please make sure to install the following patch bundles and patches:
• From HP-UX 11i v2 (11.23) release:
— FEATURE11i (required patches for vPars install)
— HWEnable11i (required patches for new hardware)
— QPKAPPS & QPKBASE (recommended OS patches)
— OnlineDiag, NPar, iCAP, WBEM (changes for vPars support)
• From the HP ITRC or Patch Hub:
— PHKL_33432 (DVD device patch)
— PHKL_34088 (bootloader patch for sx2000 systems)
— PHKL_35144 (kernel patch for nPartition-able PA systems)
NOTE PHKL_34088 is required for vPars systems running the sx2000 chipset.
Without this patch, your vPars system will not properly load the vPars
Monitor.
PHKL_35144 is intended only for PA systems and should be available in
mid-October 2006. This patch eliminates a problem with an HPMC when
booting vPars after an nPartition configuration change. For 11i v1 PA
systems, the equivalent 11.11 patch is PHKL_34915 and is available now.
CAUTION December 2006 Update
Please note that the 11.11 kernel patch PHKL_34915 mentioned in the
September 2006 Release Notes under “Patch and Patch Bundles” has been
found to be bad. The original context for this patch in the September 2006
Release Notes is below:
“PHKL_35144 is intended only for PA systems and should be available
in mid-October 2006. This patch eliminates a problem with an HPMC
when booting vPars after an nPartition configuration change. For 11i v1
PA systems, the equivalent 11.11 patch is PHKL_34915 and is available
now.”
The replacement to PHKL_35144 is PHKL_35795 and should be available
in February 2007.
