Procedure C: Update to HP-UX 11i

By now you should have successfully installed update-ux onto the target
system and, optionally, created an update depot containing all software
bundles to be installed. Now you can proceed to update your target
system as follows.
update-ux -s source_location [-?] [-a 32|64] [-n|-y] [-i]
[-x option = value ] [ sw_spec ]
where:
-ssource_location Specifies the source containing the new software
depot. Possible locations are a local directory, a
mounted CD containing a depot, or a remote
system-and-depot combination. All paths used in the
source_location must be absolute paths. If
source_location is a remote system/depot combination,
the remote system should be specified first, followed by
the absolute path to the remote depot, separated by a
colon with no spaces; for example:
swperf:/var/spool/sw
Prints the usage statement.
-?
Specifies the OS architecture (word width), 32 bit or 64
-a 32|64
bit. Omitting this defaults to the system's currently set
OS word-width. update-ux will halt if directed to
install an unsupported word-width (only 64-bit OS is
supported on B-, C- and J-class systems). Changing an
existing system from 64-bit OS to 32-bit OS is not
supported.
update-ux issues a message and waits for your
-n | -y
response to continue whenever something unexpected
is attempted. Specify -n at first (or omit this option) to
have update-ux "not continue" when an error is issued.
When you have reviewed/resolved all errors, use -y
instead of -n to have update-ux ignore all messages
which would otherwise cause update-ux to wait for a
user response.
Specifies the swinstall interactive user interface to
-i
select software products from a depot or bundle during
the update. For more information, see the
