HP-UX Virtual Partitions Administrator Guide (includes A.05.07) (5900-1229, September 2010)

TIP: The parmodify command requires major path components to be separated with a
slash (/). For example, 0.0.6.0.0.5.0 would be specified as 0/0/6/0/0.5.0 when
using parmodify.
7. Install the latest and OS-applicable Update-UX bundle onto each virtual partition that will
be updating the HP-UX Operating Environment—including all virtual partitions updating
to HP-UX 11i v2 and vPars A.04.05.
This does not update the operating system, only the Update-UX bundle.
Use Ctrl-A to switch between consoles.
To list the current Update-UX bundle, use the swlist command. For example:
azure2 # swlist -l product | grep Update
If necessary to update the Update-UX bundle, use the swinstall command.
Example where target OS will be HP-UX 11.23
azure1 # swinstall -s depot1:/release/1123/HPUX11i-OE-Ent.DVD Update-UX
Ctrl-A
azure3 # swinstall -s depot1:/release/1123/HPUX11i-OE-Ent.DVD Update-UX
Example where target OS will be HP-UX 11.11
azure2 # swinstall -s depot1:/release/1111/HPUX11i-OE-Ent.DVD Update-UX
8. Use Update-UX to install the latest OE and vPars bundle on each virtual partition that is
updating to HP-UX 11i v2 and vPars A.04.05
CAUTION:
Using Update-UX Update-UX allows for both the OE and vPars bundles to be updated in
the same session. To simultaneously update both the OE and vPars bundles in the same
session, they both must be in the same source depot.
If you update from a depot which does not contain the vPars bundle, your disk will no
longer boot in vPars mode. See the Ignite-UX Administration Guide and Using Golden Images
with Virtual Partitions for information on how to setup your Ignite-UX server.
In the following example the target OS will be HP-UX 11.23 (the HPUX11i-OE-Ent Enterprise
OE bundle) and vPars will be updated to vPars A.04.05 (the T1335BC bundle).
azure3 # update-ux -s depot1:/release/1123/HPUX11i-OE-Ent.DVD HPUX11i-OE-Ent T1335BC
NOTE: The update virtual partitions must not be rebooted at this point. Once the update
completes, keep the systems halted while other virtual partitions are being updated.
9. Install iCAP v8.03 on all HP-UX 11i v1 virtual partitions that are updating to vPars A.03.05.
iCAP v8.03 must be installed before vPars A.03.05 is installed. For details see the HP Instant
Capacity User's Guide for Versions 8.x.
