Realize new workload migration and consolidation possibilities

If you wish to boot from an Ignite-UX server, then boot the vPar to EFI and create a dbprofile with the following

command:

Shell> dbprofile –dn mybootprofile –sip {IP_address_of_ignite-server}

-cip {IP_address_of_vPar} -gip {IP_address_of_gateway} –m {network_mask}

-b “/opt/ignite/boot/nbp.efi”

Once you have done that, use the dbprofile to boot the install kernel:

Shell> lanboot select –dn mybootprofile

Once you have installed HP-UX (11i v3, March 2012 update release or later), boot the system to a regular shell prompt

and ensure that you can see all of the disks and devices that you expect.

Update applications and I/O paths as necessary

HP recommends that you update your applications to versions that explicitly support HP-UX 11i v3. Also, if the

applications that you are using store hardware paths in configuration files, you will have to edit these files to reflect the

new paths. If that is necessary, HP recommends that you switch to using the new “agile” addressing model so that future

edits to configuration files will be unnecessary.
