Additional HP-UX 11i v2 (B.11.23) and 11i v3 (B.11.31)
drivers and patches
Introduction
For full support of the HP Integrity rx2660, rx3600 and rx6600 Servers, HP recommends the
installation of the following:
• For HP-UX 11i v2, please install the HP-UX 11i v2 OE Update Release for June 2007 (or later)
• For HP-UX 11i v3, please install the HP-UX 11i v3 OE Update Release for September 2007
(or later)
Earlier OE releases will require the addition of key HP-UX components from the above listed
OE releases for minimal HP-UX support with new hardware:
• HWEnable11i patch bundle (with changes in HP-UX commands and kernel)
• OnlineDiags and SysFaultMgmt bundles (with HW monitors and diagnostics)
• I/O driver bundles (for new I/O adapters and storage devices)
• Ignite-UX product (with install kernel and backup support)
New servers may need the latest version of other HP-UX applications from the current OE release
for hardware support with updated manageability and configuration tools. These new servers
also require HP-UX patches and I/O driver bundles that are documented in the below sections.
