Installing HP-UX 11.0 and Updating HP-UX 10.x to 11.0 HP 9000 Computers Edition 1

Ignite-UX System Administration
Section 6: Using Ignite-UX Across Gateways
On the install server (on one side of the gateway):
1. cd /opt/ignite/boot You can make the changes to the actual boot
files in this directory, or copy INSTALLFS to another file and make
changes to that file by adding a -F option spec to the instl_adm calls
below. The rest of this section assumes you just use the “real” version.
These changes aren’t very extensive, so this should be acceptable.
2. Run: instl_adm > fs_cfg
3. Run: cp fs_cfg fs_cfg.orig This will save a copy of the current settings,
in case you need to restore them later. There already should be a file
“fs_cfg.def” which may also be useful as a backup
. 4. Edit fs_cfg:
1. Make sure the “server” spec is set to point to this machine.
2. Make sure the “is_net_info_temporary” spec is set to “false”:
is_net_info_temporary=false
3. Set proper “route_gateway” spec for the *target* machine. In other
words, it should be the gateway that the target machine needs to get
across to this server. **This will be different than what would currently
be in there**. For example, there should be two lines in the file like:
route_gateway[0]=”15.2.48.1”
route_destination[0]=”default”
4. Add the lines (examples):
ip_addr=”15.2.43.1”
netmask=”255.255.248.0”
system_name=”a_name”
The effect of the “is_net_info_temporary=false” spec and the ip_addr,
netmask, and system_name specs is to use this information for the
install (thus avoiding DHCP) AND leave it in /tmp/install.vars on the
target system after installation. Set_parms will then run and pick up
this info as defaults. If is_net_info_temporary is set to true, the network
information will be lost.
The ip_addr and system_name do not need to be (but can be) the final
values, just valid temporary values.
You could also set “final” net info (actually cause I-UX to put it in the rc
startup files) by adding additional “final” specifications for
system_name, ip_address, etc. Remember, setting a “final”
