Installing from the Ignite-UX Server

Conﬁguring the Installation

Ignite-UX. "HFS" is the standard ﬁle system format. The File System

tab will give you additional opportunities to conﬁgure the LVM

volumes. In the File System tab, you can edit the sizes of LVM

partitions, or use the values that Ignite-UX computes for you.

•"Logical Volume Manager (LVM) with VxFS" (Journaled File

System) This will format multi-disk systems to combine the disk

space into a single, large disk pool, and then allocate volumes as

needed. "VxFS" is the same as the Journaled File System (JFS), and

allows ﬁle system size to be changed after installation. With the

optional HP OnlineJFS you can resize, defragment, or make a

"snapshot" of a mounted ﬁle system.

See the “File System Tab” section for detailed information on File System

conﬁguration.

Root Disk To change root disks, select this button, select another disk from the list

of available disks, and select OK in that screen.

For example, a root disk is usually located at SCSI bus location 6.

Root Swap The amount of root swap space depends on the applications being loaded.

You can choose to use the default which Ignite-UX computes, based on

available memory on the target system. Or you can select "Root Swap"

and select from the choices that appear in the list. You can also edit the

ﬁeld directly and type in the amount of swap space you wish. The swap

will be rounded to a multiple of 4 MB.

See the manual System Administrator Tasks for how to compute swap

space.

Languages

The languages available in your HP-UX system will be shown when you

select this ﬁeld. Select the item(s) you want, if it is other than the

default. The dialogue screen allows you to select more than one

language. Highlight the additional items by double-clicking on each. You

can also drag the pointer down the screen to highlight a range of items;

then press the mark/unmark button.

You can make any of the selections the system default language. This

will become the system default language after it is installed.

Locale Each language will have a corresponding locale (language variant).
