HP-UX Virtual Partitions Administrator's Guide (includes A.03.05 and A.04.05)

you can perform these steps within a vPars environment; you do not need to boot the system
into standalone mode.
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.
NOTE: Before using the update-ux command, make sure you have the latest Update-UX
bundle installed for each virtual partition:
# swinstall -s source_depot Update-UX
After the latest Update-UX bundle has been installed, you can use the update-ux command,
the syntax is:
# update-ux -s source_depot OE_bundle vPars_bundle
For example, the command line used in this section is
• # update-ux -s depot1:/release/1131/HPUX11i-OE-Ent.DVD HPUX11i-OE-Ent T1335CC
where
— depot1:/release/1131/HPUX11i-OE-Ent.DVD is the source depot
— HPUX11i-OE-Ent is the OE bundle
— T1335CC is the vPars A.05.xx bundle
Since both the OE and vPars bundle are the parameters for update-ux, both the OE (including
the OS version) and the vPars version are updated in this single step.
NOTE: When using the 11.31 binaries for update-ux, there is now a -p (preview) option similar
to the swinstall preview option.
If you are unfamiliar with the Update-UX product or would like information on using or
debugging Update-UX, read the HP-UX 11.31 or 11.23 Installation and Update Guide. Also, see the
applicable Software Distributor and Ignite-UX documents available at http://docs.hp.com.

• Foundation OEHPUX11i-OE
