IMPORTANT:
You must use the updated Ignite-UX and Update-UX tools from September 2007 OE
Update release (or later) to correctly install patches and HP-UX 11i v3 patch bundles.
HP supports the following cold-install or update cases with a network depot that
includes HP-UX patches or patch bundles.
To cold-install HP-UX 11i v3 using a network depot, use any release of HP-UX 11i v3
to create the network depot, and then copy the desired patch bundles into that depot.
Use Ignite-UX version C.7.3 (or later) to cold-install HP-UX 11i v3. Get the latest
Ignite-UX version from the IUX download page: http://docs.hp.com/en/IUX/
download.html
To update to the latest release of HP-UX 11i v3, start with the desired HP-UX 11i v3
OE bundles from the September 2007 release (or later) to create the depot, and then
copy the desired patch bundles into the depot.
Updates to a network depot with the HP-UX 11i v3 OE bundles from February 2007
and 11i v3 patch bundles from September 2007 release or later cannot be supported,
due to known problems with the initial release of 11.31 HP-UX software management
tools (that get installed with OE bundles from February 2007).
