3. Answer “y” (yes) to indicate that you want to change the console port settings:
Do you want to modify the Local Console Serial Port settings? (Y/[N])
y
4. Answer “n” (no) to the questions about modifying the “Serial Port bit rate” and the “Current
Flow Control”
Current Local Console Serial Port bit rate: 9600 bits/s
Do you want to modify it? (Y/[N]) n
Current Flow Control: Software
Do you want to modify it? (Y/[N]) n
5. Indicate which terminal type you want to use, then answer “y” (yes) to confirm your change:
Enter Terminal Type ([Vt100] / Hpterm):
New Terminal Type: hpterm
Confirm? (Y/[N]): y
-> Terminal Type will be updated.
6. Answer n (no) to the question about updating the “Remote Console Serial Port Modem
settings”:
Do you want to modify the Remote Console Serial Port Modem settings?
(Y/[N]) n
You will see a message indicating the command execution will take a few seconds and then a
message indicating that your settings have been updated.
The virtual partitions that you create will use this terminal-type setting for their virtual console
displays.
TIP: If you get a garbled display, you can press Ctrl-L to refresh the display.
Increase in Size of /stand File System
Due to the vPars files that will exist in /stand, you should increase your planned size of the
/stand file system by 100 MB. For example, if you originally had planned to create /stand
with 1 GB for your HP-UX instance, you should plan for 1.1 GB when that HP-UX instance resides
in a virtual partition.
VxFS (Veritas File System) (vPars A.03.xx)
To avoid hangs on VxFS file systems, install kernel patch PHKL_27121 or its successor on the
operating systems of each virtual partition. This patch is available from the IT Resource Center
website at http://itrc.hp.com.
SecurePath
Before installing the SecurePath product, install the vPars product and create and install all the
virtual partitions.
NOTE: The SecurePath product is not supported on HP-UX 11i v3 (11.31). Use the native
multipathing available with the HP-UX 11i v3 mass storage stack, as described in the white paper
The Next Generation Mass Storage Stack. This paper can be found in the Network and Systems
Management section of http://docs.hp.com, under Storage Area Management.
Bundle Names
You can install vPars on an existing HP-UX installation directly from a depot, DVD, or by using
an Ignite-UX server.
