Backdating Your System
Performing the Backdate
Restore FOS and SUBSYS
Refer to “Rerunning HPINSTAL” in Chapter 5 , “Modifying Your System,” for additional
information about these steps.
1. Remount the Factory Preload Tape (FPT).
2. Invoke HPINSTAL.
:HPINSTAL;INFO="RECOVERY"
The following is a sample system response:
MPE/iX HPINSTAL B.10.00 (c) Hewlett-Packard CO.
Mount the CSLT and put the tape/DDS drive online
The HP-supported software files will be restore.
**********Please stand by****************
The HP-supported software files are being restored.
The FPT is called the CSLT on the console screen. That is because the FPT is a type of
CSLT created at the factory.
3. Mount the FPT and put the tape drive online. This restores the STORE portion of the
FPT. If using DDS tape, you need to remove the tape and reinsert it now.
• The system then restores files, processes STORE files, creates the accounting
structure, and processes installation files.
• HPINSTAL automatically streams the installation jobs that complete the installation
of most products.
The message may indicate zero installation files. This only means that the products
you are installing do not require an installation file. HPINSTAL continues with the
product installation.
The time it takes to restore the software files varies depending on how many and
which specific subsystems you have on your system.
4. Follow any additional instructions displayed on the screen, such as mounting other tape
volumes (if using half-inch magnetic tapes).
Reply to tape requests, if necessary.
5. List and record any manually installed products HPINSTAL cannot completely install.
A warning message displays and lists manually installed products, if applicable.
WARNING -- This program cannot install the products listed
below. (INSTWARN #1)
Record any product names that the program cannot install.
6. When HPINSTAL finishes the task you initially specified, you will see the following
message:
The installation is now complete.
