Ignite-UX Administration Guide for HP-UX 11i (B3921-90079, October 2013)

Getting the Ignite-UX Software
Ignite-UX is available in standard SD (Software Distributor) depot format from OE and AR media,
and from the HP Software Depot Website.
Any Ignite-UX bundle is safe to install at any time. None of the filesets in Ignite-UX bundles will
cause a reboot to occur.
• OE and AR Media
Ignite-UX released on OE or AR media can only be installed on a server running the HP-UX
version supported by the OE or AR media.
This Ignite-UX is the complete product. (The Ignite complete product is capable of installing
and recovering all supported versions of HP-UX.)
If you require a version of Ignite-UX that can be installed onto any supported version of HP-UX,
read the next section about downloading Ignite-UX from the HP Software Depot Website.
• HP Software Depot Website

The Ignite-UX depots available at Software Depot contain the latest Ignite-UX version and can
be installed on servers running any supported version of HP-UX.
• Support for Installation and Recovery of all Supported HP-UX Operating System Versions
Each Ignite-UX bundle contains the Ignite-UX tools, plus the data files required to install and
recover the particular HP-UX operating systems indicated by the bundle name.
See the figure below for a list of available bundles and the HP-UX versions the bundles can
install and recover.

NOTE: As of Ignite-UX version C.7.1, the name of the Ignite-UX complete product bundle that
installs all supported versions of HP-UX has changed from B5725AA to IGNITE.
Each bundle can be installed on a server running any version of HP-UX. For example,
Ignite-UX-11-23 can be installed on a server running HP-UX 11i v1 (B.11.11). You can install one
or more of the individual Ignite-UX-11-xx bundles onto your system.
HP recommends you install the complete Ignite-UX product (IGNITE) unless you want to block the
use of a specific version of HP-UX, increase the download speed from the Software Depot website,
or conserve disk space on the server.
As a best practice, do not swremove Ignite-UX before updating to a new version. Doing so will
cause some files to be reset, including the INDEX file, thus you will lose any customizations.
