I want to create a golden image of the client. Not sure if these versions' difference pose a problem. Please suggest.

Re: ignite server and client - ignite software versions
Try this on the 11iv3 client:
# swlist -l depot @ ignite_server_ip_address
Does it show a list of valid software depots? If you get the same RPC error, then you can attempt to re-start the swagent daemon on both systems by:
# swagentd -r
Also try the swlist command on ignite_server to see if /var/opt/ignite/depots/recovery_cmds is a valid software depot.
# swlist -l depot
If it's not showing up, you can register the software depot on the ignite server by:
# swreg -l depot @ /var/opt/ignite/depots/recovery_cmds
I always make it a point to upgrade Ignite-UX to the latest version at least once a year during our annual patching. Note that you don't have to remove the old version when upgrading. Ignite-UX upgrade will also not change the existing configuration on the Ignite-UX server. Just make sure you download the complete Ignite-UX bundle, then when you do the swinstall, use the "Match what target Has" method.

Re: ignite server and client - ignite software versions
Hi,
>> am trying to install :/var/opt/ignite/depots/recovery_cmds depot from ignite server to my client.
If you want to install the recovery_cmds on the client from ignite-UX server, then I would suggest you to perform the following:
On the Ignite-UX Server:
1. Start the Ignite-UX TUI.
2. Go to "Actions" menu -> "Add a new client for recovery" -> enter the client details to add
3. Once the client is added, Select the client and go to "Actions" Menu --> "Create Network Recovery Archive"
This operation would install the Ignite-UX recovery command on the clients.
NOTE: Ignite-UX TUI, will not initiated the "make_net_recovery" command automatically on the client. User needs to initiate it after the above 3 steps. Whereas in case of Ignite-UX GUI, the complete backup is automated.
Regarding your query on Golden Image:
>> I want to create a golden image of the client. Not sure if these versions' difference pose a problem. Please suggest.
Its normally recommended for the Ignite-UX Server to have the higher or the same Ignite-UX version as on client. But in case of Golden Image Creation it doesnt matter as we only use the make_sys_image script file to create the golden archive.
Please refer the HP Ignite-UX Guided Configuration and Troubleshooting guides for step by step instruction to create and configure the golden image.
