Updating HP-UX

Updating HP-UX Software

NOTE For an OS update, you will also need to repeat the update steps with the

appropriate bundle on the HP-UX Extension Software which came with

your HP-UX media. This provides core-related patches for the current

version of HP-UX. (See “Using HP-UX Extension Software”, in this

chapter, and the patch descriptions on the disc.) The system will

automatically reboot after updating with this bundle.

Updating a Patched

System

If you are updating the OS of a previously-patched HP-UX 10.x system,

you will need to remove the old patches after installing. The cleanup

tool is available to accomplish this selectively by examining the IPD and

removing references to old patches. You can get cleanup via the patch

PHCO_12140, available from your HP support service.

If You are Updating

from HP-VUE to CDE

The HP-UX 10.20 CDE ﬁlesets do not contain updated versions of

SharedPrint or HP VUE ﬁles. Therefore, when updating from HP VUE to

CDE, the old versions of SharedPrint or VUE remain on the system. As a

result, you will see SharedPrint and VUE errors appearing in the

swagent.log, and the swverify.log (if swverify has been run).

These messages can be ignored, as no functional problems are implied.

The following ﬁlesets will produce these failed verify error message:

SharedPrint.SHP-ENG-A-MAN

SharedPrint.SHPRNT-CLI

SharedPrint.SHPRNT-PCL

SharedPrint.SHPRNT-SRV

VUE.VUE-RUN

VUE.VUE-HELP-INFO

VUE.VUE-MAN

VUE.VUE-RUN-AUX

(Non-English systems will display the localized ﬁleset names.)

In addition, note that your 10.01 and 10.10 ﬁles will work on HP-UX

10.20, as binary compatibility between versions has been maintained.
