Installing HP-UX 11.0 and Updating HP-UX 10.x to 11.0 HP 9000 Computers Edition 1

Appendix C 241
Ignite-UX System Administration
Section 2: The Install Archive
Note that “/var/opt/ignite/config.local” should be last. The last
config file has the highest priority to override values in prior config files.
The file “/opt/ignite/data/Rel_B.11.00/config” supplies the disk
and file-system layout defaults, plus other control information required
by Ignite-UX. It must be first in every cfg clause.
Each “cfg” clause appears as an available configuration to Ignite-UX.
Therefore, the string “HP-UX B.11.00 archive” will now appear as a valid
configuration.
Step 2.3
Ensure NFS file system is exported correctly.
In the above “sw_source” clause, we specified the location of the OS
archive to be a file on an NFS server. You need to ensure target systems
have access to this directory.
Make sure the NFS configuration is correct. Use the “exportfs -v”
command to view the current status and ensure the directory containing
the archive is correctly exported. Ignite-UX will automatically try to
export /var/opt/ignite/clients for its use. In our example
/var/opt/ignite/archives/Rel_B.11.00 must also be exported
because that is where we placed the OS archive.
Here’s our /etc/exports file:
/var/opt/ignite/clients -anon=2
/var/opt/ignite/archives/Rel_B.11.00 -ro
If these are not correct, use SAM to set them up correctly.
Step 3: Reboot and Gain Control of Target
System
Since the Ignite-UX server knows about your new OS archive, you can
now use Ignite-UX to load the OS archive onto a target system. To do
this, you need to get the target system to inform Ignite-UX that it is
ready to install a new OS. There are two methods for doing this.
Method 1): If the system is currently running HP-UX 9.X or HP-UX 10.X:
From the Ignite-UX server, use the bootsys command to reboot the target
for which you wish to install the new OS. The target system can be
booted in a mode in which it can be controlled by the Ignite-UX user
interface.
# /opt/ignite/bin/bootsys -w -v <system_name>
