DescriptionInstallation Type
Software and administration tools needed to create a minimally bootable and
maintainable system. Only the drivers for basic hardware are included in this
Required (always-installed)
category. You might need to install additional drivers to use all hardware
components. Software in this category cannot be deselected.
The following table lists the required software in all OEs:
• Table 18: “HP-UX 11i v3 required software” (page 86)
Software bundles that HP recommends you install because they fulfill software
dependencies, if any exist. You can, however, manually deselect the bundles before
you install or update your system.
Recommended (default-installed)
To install a minimal operating system configuration (base OS) you can deselect
the recommended bundles. Only the minimal core OS will be installed on your
system when you deselect the recommended bundles.
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.
Software might have unstated dependencies. Deselecting software might prevent
products with dependencies on the software you deselected from functioning
correctly.
The following tables list the recommended software in each OE:
• Table 19: “HP-UX 11i v3 BOE recommended software” (page 87)
• Table 21: “HP-UX 11i v3 VSE-OE recommended software” (page 92)
