Conﬁguring an Ignite-UX Server

Setting Up an Ignite-UX Server

HP-supplied software is packaged in this form. See the

make_bundles(1M) manpage for information on making SD bundles

in an SD depot.)

For example, to make compiler depot bundles available type the

following:

/opt/ignite/bin/make_config -s hpfcxxx.hp.com:/depots/compiler -c \

/var/opt/ignite/data/Rel_B.10.20/compilers_cfg

/opt/ignite/bin/manage_index -a -f /var/opt/ignite/data/Rel_B.

10.20/compilers_cfg

2. The depot server name (in this example hpfcxxx.hp.com) should be

replaced with the server you have the SD software on. Note that the

depot server can be a different system from the Ignite-UX server.

NOTE The make_config command will need to be re-run each time new

software is added or modiﬁed in the depots.

The make_config tool constructs Ignite-UX conﬁg ﬁles which

correspond to SD depots. When an SD depot is used as part of the

Ignite-UX process, it must have a conﬁg ﬁle which describes the

contents of the depot to Ignite-UX. This command can automatically

construct such a conﬁg ﬁle, when it is given the name of an SD depot

to operate on. This command should be run when adding or changing

a depot which will be used by Ignite-UX.

The manage_index tool is used to manipulate the

/var/opt/ignite/INDEX ﬁle. This utility is primarily called by

other Ignite-UX tools but can also be called directly.

For non-SD application

software:

If the source is not an SD depot, the make_config command is not

applicable. You will need to create a unique conﬁg ﬁle that references the

non-SD software. A sample of a conﬁg ﬁle that does a non-core archive

can be found at the following location:

/opt/ignite/data/examples/noncore.cfg

1. Copy this ﬁle ﬁrst to /var/opt/ignite/data/Release/conﬁgx.

Then make the changes to the copy in that directory.

2. After copying and editing this ﬁle, you can use manage_index to

insert a reference the copy of the conﬁguration in the following

location:

/var/opt/ignite/INDEX
