Updating HP-UX
Updating SD-UX Before Installing/Updating Software
Further examples are in the next section. After you have updated
SD-UX, you can use swinstall to update your system to HP-UX 10.20.
CAUTION Do not reboot your system after running swgettools and before you run
swinstall or swcluster to update HP-UX.
If you do reboot, you must run swgettools again before updating
HP-UX.
