Setting Up the Ignite-UX Server
If you are having problems with terminal emulation, see also “Ignite-UX and other Curses Applications” on
page 25.
For complete information on Ignite-UX, see the document Ignite-UX Administration Guide.
Ignite-UX Versions
vPars A.03.xx and A.04.xx have different version requirements. This version information has been moved to e
the HP-UX Virtual Partitions Ordering and Configuration Guide.
NOTE PA-RISC only: When using Ignite-UX version C.06.XX or later, the bootable kernel path has
changed from
/opt/ignite/boot/WINSTALL in Ignite-UX B.05.XX and earlier
to
/opt/ignite/boot/Rel_B.11.NN/WINSTALL in Ignite-UX C.06.XX and later.
Thus, when using Ignite-UX C.06.XX or later, you must specify the absolute path for the
bootable kernel for the vparboot -I command line. For more information and an example, see
“(PA-RISC only) The WINSTALL Boot Kernel Paths with Different Versions of Ignite-UX and
the vparboot -I command” on page 24.
Determining the Ignite-UX Version
To determine which version of Ignite-UX you are running, execute the command similar to:
# swlist -l fileset -a revision Ignite-UX.FILE-SRV-11-11
Example
If your swlist output shows
# Initializing...
# Contacting target "rust"...
#
# Target: rust:/
#
Ignite-UX.FILE-SRV-11-11 B.5.4.50
then your Ignite-UX version is B.5.4.50.
