Modifying Your System
5.11 Securing the System
5.11 Securing the System
This section includes logging off users and shutting down the system.
To prepare and secure the system for updating:
1. If you are performing a Distributing Staging Area, or Modify Remote System task, log
on from the remote system console.
If you are performing a Manage Patch, Add-on, Update, or Re-Install task, log on from
the local system console.
:HELLO MANAGER.SYS,PUB;HIPRI
:SPOOLER LP;START
:STREAMs streams_device
A common streams_device value is 10. An LP device must be configured in SYSGEN.
Already spooled and streamed messages might display.
2. If you are performing an Add-on, Update, or Remote CD-ROM task, go to Step 3.
If you are performing a Manage Patch, Staging Area, or Add-on tape task, go to Step 4.
CD-ROM Tasks
3. Remove and reinsert CSLT tape.
a. If you are on the remote system, insert the CSLT tape for the first time.
If you are using DDS tape and you are modifying the system on which you created
the CSLT, be sure to remove the CSLT tape from the tape drive before performing
the modification. Reinsert the CSLT tape.
b. Go to Step 4.
4. If you are performing an Update task, go to Step 5.
If you are performing an Add-on, Manage Patch, Staging Area, or Remote system task,
go to Step 6.
Update Tasks
5. Run HP Predictive Support and turn it off.
If you are using the HP Predictive Support software as part of your Hewlett-Packard
hardware support contract, ensure that an HP Predictive Support run completes
successfully.
a. Issue the HP Predictive Support command:
:RUN PSCONFIG.PRED.SYS
This run of HP Predictive Support may include a transfer of files to the
Hewlett-Packard Response Center. If a transfer is needed,
be sure it completes
because the system update overwrites the information in the file
PSDCFILE.PRED.SYS.
