You may also wish to log all messages directed to the console by using the
script command. For example, to log all messages into a file named:
/tmp/updateOS, enter:
script -a /tmp/updateOS
To halt the script log process, enter: exit
You can run other commands during an update, such as viewing files,
tail, etc. However, do not run other Software Distributor commands
during an update; doing so may cause the commands to function
improperly.
If you encounter a problem during the update process, review Appendix
B in this guide for possible solutions.
After updating to an HP-UX 11i operating environment (OE), some OE
products will need post-installation configuration to make them
functional. This may be indicated by a message logged in
/var/adm/sw/swagent.log. Refer to each product's installation
instructions for details. Location of OE product documentation is listed
in the tables at the back of the Read Before Installing or Updating to
HP-UX 11i booklet and in the HP-UX 11i Release Notes. Release notes
are in /usr/share/doc/ and on the Web:
docs.hp.com/hpux/os/11i/
The update-ux command updates the HP-UX OS and any software
specified in additional software bundle(s) available on the source media.
When an OE is specified, some products in the OE such as Apache Web
Server, will not automatically get updated if a version of the product not
previously installed with an OE already exists on the system. You'll have
to update or re-install those products after updating 11i.
To verify the software versions after updating, list the products using the
swlist command. To verify that all software products are compatible with
the new OS, run swverify. These operations are explained in Chapters 3
and 4.
After you update, please back up your system. We recommend using the
Ignite-UX make_tape_recovery or make_net_recovery command to
create a recovery archive immediately after updating to HP-UX 11i. By
backing up your system, you will have a reliable system image to return
to if subsequent system changes or a system failure corrupts your
