HP-UX 11i v3 Installation and Update Guide, September 2009 (Update 5 Release)

Information DVD and on the web (http://www.docs.hp.com/en/
oshpux11iv3.html#Release%20Notes).
CAUTION:
HP recommends that you do not deselect recommended software bundles or remove
them from your system unless you know for certain that the software contained in
these bundles is not required for your OE.
If you deselect recommended software during the update, the old version of the software
you deselected will remain on your system. The old version may or may not be
compatible with the newly updated HP-UX 11i v3 OE. In addition, software may have
unstated dependencies. Deselecting software may prevent some products from
functioning correctly because they have dependencies on the software you deselected.
The flag M (Match) appears when software has been matched to software currently
installed on your system. The flag P (Partial) may appear if you select only a component
of a software object or if such components are automatically selected due to
dependencies.
The software products in each category have an associated flag that is displayed in the
left-hand column and are described below:
• S is selected by the user.
• ! is deselected by the user.
• D is a dependency.
• A is automatically selected.
• P is partially selected.
• M is selected because it matches software installed on your system.
• E means an error has occurred when selecting this item.
• . has no status (is not selected or installed).
• N is newer than the software on the system.
• O is older than the software on the system.
• I is currently installed on the system.
Step 5: Analysis (preview)
a. After selecting the software you wish to update, enter p (preview) to preview,
without modifying the system, the actions that will occur for the update.
The output window appears and begins displaying messages beginning with:
Analyzing software to be installed.
In this step, the update-ux TUI analyzes the software you have selected.
The Analysis window displays status information about the analysis process. If
the preview shows problems, these will be displayed in the Analysis window.
