HP-UX 11i v3 Installation and Update Guide, September 2010

Table A-2 Known install and update problems (continued)
Description/actionProblem
DRD updates directly from media will fail unless you install the September 2010
OE (or later) versions of DRD, SWM, and SW-DIST.
What to do
In order to use a media depot to do a DRD update, you will need to first install
September 2010 (or later) versions of DRD, SWM, and SW-DIST products from
the media. This must be done before the clone is created, so the new DRD, SWM,
and SW-DIST are on the active system and on the clone.
To install these products execute a command like the following. (This assumes
that the first DVD of the September 2010 or later release is mounted to
/SD_CDROM.)
swinstall -x autoselect_dependencies=false -s /SD_CDROM \
DRD SWM SW-DIST PHCO_36525
Now you can create the clone, then perform an OE update from media on the
clone.
DRD updates directly from
September 2010 OE (or later)
media require the September
2010 OE (or later) versions of
DRD, SWM, and SW-DIST
At the end of an update, Dynamic Root Disk (DRD) recommends that you run
swm job log -v <job_id>. However, this feature sometimes aborts with a
stack trace.
What to do
To view the log on the inactive image, run this command instead:
drd runcmd view /var/opt/swm/swm.log
The view program is identical to vi except that the “read-only” editor option is
set. You are able to search the document and when you’re done, you can exit the
editor program.
At end of update, DRD
recommends a non-functional
feature
