Powering Up Your System
Powering Up Your System
After you have connected the various parts of the computer—for details,
see the J5000/J7000 Installation Sheet that came with your computer—
you are ready to power up the system. At this point, there are two
possibilities:
• Your computer has been "ignited;" that is, the HP's Instant Ignition
process has installed the operating system already. In this case, when
you power up the computer, you will be presented with a series of
questions asking you the machine's hostname, IP address, subnet
mask, and other basic configuration questions (see next page for
details). When these are answered, the CDE login screen will appear.
• Your computer has not been "ignited;" that is, the HP's Instant
Ignition process has not installed the operating system already. In
this case, you will need to install the operating system from the CDs
found in the HP-UX 10.20 Software for Workstations ACE (June
1999) media kit; for details, see the CD Booklet included with the
CDs. The ACE bundles reside on the IPR media, and are also
available
from
operation system (HP-UX 10.20) and the HP-UX 10.20 ACE (June
1998) are both installed, you'll need to answer the questions noted
above for the ignited system. After the questions have been answered,
the CDE login screen will appear.
Once the CDE login screen appears, and you can log in as root—initially,
there is no password. When you have logged in, you will be able to create
other users' accounts and do whatever other configuration and
installations you require to get the machine into its desired state. Use
the Help facility of SAM (the System Administration Manager) or see the
HP CDE Getting Started Guide and User's Guide for instructions on
typical tasks.
