Installing HP-UX
Verifying and Completing the Installation
NOTE Multi-User License Software: If you are loading HP-UX from a
CD-ROM, multi-user licenses (to allow more than two users on the
system) are on one of the additional Application CDs, which also
contains optional products such as LVM disk mirroring.
This means that, when your system reboots after loading the software
from the first CD, no more than two users will be able to log back in. If
yours is a multi-user system, you must load your multi-user license from
another application CD before bringing the system back online. You may
want to set up a network depot to make this process easier.
Installing Extension Software
The Extension Software which comes with HP-UX contains essential
patches and hardware-specific updates for the current version of HP-UX.
If you are updating with the HP-UX Extension Software, please go to
“Updating HP-UX Software” and “Using HP-UX Extension Software”, in
this chapter, to get information. The system will automatically reboot
after updating with kernel-related Extension Software.
Installing Applications Software
For the procedures for installing additional software from CD-ROM or
network depots, see “Updating HP-UX Software”, in Chapter 3,
“Updating HP-UX,” in this manual. Or see the manual Managing HP-UX
Software with SD-UX.
You will also find further instructions on building your system in the
System Administration Tasks manual.
