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

ERROR: The system install or recovery session cannot continue. The
system will now reboot.
If Ignite-UX detects only the minimum amount of RAM on the client system, you will see these
messages:
WARNING: RAMFS Setup memory issue.
WARNING: The system does not contain the minimal amount of memory needed
for install or recovery. Ignite-UX requires minimum_amount of available
memory for the “B.xx.xx” release. The system has only actual_amount of
memory available for use (this may be less than physical memory installed
due to space reserved by system firmware). The install or recovery may
or may not complete, and it may take an extraordinary amount of time
to complete. It is advised to increase the amount of memory in the
system.
NOTE: The system install or recovery session will now continue.
CAUTION: Any data on the client disks that are used for installation, including the operating
system, are removed entirely as part of this installation process.
IMPORTANT: During HP-UX 11i v3 installation and recovery, connected Active/Passive devices
will cause long delays (one hour or more) or may cause a system to hang. Similarly, connecting
an Active/Passive device before installing the Active/Passive Switch (APSW) plug-in can cause
some commands to take a long time. Disconnect any Active/Passive devices connected to your
system before installing or recovering HP-UX 11i v3. After installation or recovery, it is important
that the APSW plug-in be installed before connecting an Active/Passive device to the system.
Making Boot Decisions When Using the Client Console
When deciding which method to use when operating from the client console, you should take your
server/client configuration into consideration. See Chapter 2 (page 24) for information on
configuring your Ignite-UX server for your environment.
This section provides an overview of options when booting from the client console.
Boot Using the Network
A decision tree for booting and installing HP-UX from the client console using the server is shown
in Figure 33. If you want to boot a client without using an Ignite-UX server, see Figure 34 (page
98).
Use the decision tree below when you want to install from the Ignite-UX server and control the
installation from the client console.
