Updating an Existing Operating System and Software

Installing Applications Software

Installing Applications Software
If your applications software is already in a depot (SD packaged), it can
be loaded with the Ignite-UX installation. If it is in a non-SD format, you
can create a bundle by using the Ignite-UX tool make_bundle and
install or update it on the the target system.
Applications software in SD format can also be loaded later using
SD-UX. For the SD procedures for installing additional software from
tape, CD-ROM or network depots, see "Updating HP-UX Software" or the
manual Managing HP-UX Software with SD-UX.

Adding Additional Functionality

In case you need to add more bundles for the functionality of your new
HP-UX, such as JFS or NFSD filesets, use the "Match What Target Has"
option described in this chapter, and then select additional bundles
which you have purchased.
If you need further details, see the manual Managing HP-UX Software
with SD-UX.

Networking Products on Additional Media

If you are using certain networking products or other Independent
Software Units (ISUs) which are not present on the CORE HP-UX CD or
tape, then you may need to follow modified update procedures. Some of
the networking products affected include FDDI, Token-Ring and 100VG
AnyLan, which are provided on the HP Applications CD-ROM or tape.
Since optional networking products are shipped on separate media from
the CORE HP-UX, their drivers are removed from the kernel during the
update process. This means that if you update using the CORE medium or
a depot made from it, the optional networking will not be available after
reboot.
If the networking which was removed provides access to the remote SD
depot or cd-rom drive, then, after reboot, any swinstall of applications,
including networking will need to be performed from a local CD-ROM
drive or tape drive or a local disk depot.
