Chapter 6120

Step 4: Select

Software

The Software Selection tab appears. The Software Selection tab displays

the software contents of the OE you selected on the OE Selection tab.

This tab displays only the software that is compatible with the current

system release. On this tab you can adjust the software contents you

want to include within the OE. The software that matches what is

currently installed on your system is automatically selected.

You can select optional software or deselect recommended software you

do not want to update. Deselecting recommended software will deselect

standalone software, network and storage drivers, and recommended

software that is common to all operating environments.

Figure 6-5: Software Selection Tab

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 operating environment.

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 operating system. In

addition, software may have unstated dependencies. Deselecting software may

prevent products with dependencies on the software you deselected from

functioning correctly.
