Abstract Ignite-UX is available from multiple sources and supports multiple HP-UX releases. This white paper attempts to clarify how to obtain Ignite-UX, what parts of Ignite-UX to install, and how to address common problems related to installing and updating this product. In addition to this white paper, information on installing Ignite-UX is available in the Ignite-UX Administration Guide available at http://www.docs.hp.com/en/oshpux11iv3.html#Ignite-UX.

As an alternative to selecting the “All supported HP-UX versions” option, you may download more than one OS-specific bundle to get the combination of HP-UX support that you need. When you install an OS-specific Ignite-UX bundle, you will also see the IGNITE bundle in the swlist (1M) output of your installed software. If you only want to download the software required to support system recovery of a specific client, select the applicable OS-specific option.

Obtaining Ignite-UX from the recovery commands depot Getting Ignite-UX software from the recovery commands depot requires that you have already installed and set up an Ignite-UX server. To determine whether the recovery commands depot exists, type: # swlist -l depot Look for /var/opt/ignite/depots/recovery_cmds in the list of available depots.

Problems related to installing and updating Ignite-UX Related problems include: • Cleaning up old Ignite-UX software when an update didn’t match what was already on the system • Needing to ignite and recover an HP-UX release that Ignite-UX no longer supports • Needing to move back to an earlier version of Ignite-UX • Identifying the source from which Ignite-UX was installed • A change in the name of the full product bundle in version C.7.0 and later • Mismatched filesets after updating to version C.7.

Moving to an earlier version of Ignite-UX If you have installed a newer version of Ignite-UX and then wish to revert to a previous version of Ignite-UX, you should remove Ignite-UX completely from the system and install the version you wish to have. If the system being downgraded is the Ignite-UX server, removing Ignite-UX and installing it again will not remove any per-client information.

Mismatched filesets after updating to version C.7.0 or later Ignite-UX version C.7.0 fixes a defect in the pkg_rec_depot command. From Ignite-UX version C.6.0 to C.6.10, the command contained a defect that caused all the BOOT-KRN-11-XX filesets to be included in every Ignite-UX-11-XX bundle in the recovery commands depot (/var/opt/ignite/depots/recovery_cmds).
