Updating HP-UX and Veritas Products Using the update-ux Command
This section describes how to update an HP-UX 11i v2 system to HP-UX 11i v3 with Veritas VxVM
5.1 SP1 and VxFS 5.1 SP1 using the update-ux command.
To update the operating system from HP-UX 11i v2 to HP-UX 11i v3, complete the following steps:
1. Copy the contents of the HP-UX 11i v3 OE media to an HP-UX depot by entering the swcopy
-s command:
For example, to copy the contents of a DVD, such as /11v3OE_DVD to a depot called /var/
depots/my_hpux_depot, enter the following command:
# swcopy -s /11iv3OE_DVD \* @ /var/depots/my_hpux_depot
If there are multiple HP-UX 11i v3 DVDs, repeat this step for DVD.
2. Alternatively, you can copy the DVD contents in an interactive mode wherein you mount the
DVD and use the Find Local CD-ROM option in the Specify Source screen by entering the
following command:
# swcopy -i \* @ /var/depots/my_hpux_depot
3. Copy the contents of the HP-UX ServiceGuard and StorageManagement Products media into
the depot folder you created:
# swcopy -s /11iv3SG_DVD \* @ /var/depots/my_hpux_depot
