Installing on L3000

Brian Burton — Fri, 19 May 2006 15:08:51 GMT

hello,
I have a HP 9000 I have been trying to install HP-UV11i v1 on it. I can get to the base OS but the installation never completes successfully i cant figure it out and it stops at a different spot everytime i try the install. i have however installed this copy on a HP 9000 L2000. When i do get the os to come up on the L3000 nothing is installed or nothing will work sam wont work and stm wont work it gives me some kind of memory error....

thanks in advance

You are using a CD/DVD media or ignite?

If you are using an ignite backup, how it is made?

Use the HP-UX diagnostic or offline diagnotic environment (ODE) to run memory tests and check GSP logs for memory errors - this just smells like a real hardware issue.

Shalom,

An L3000 is more than capable of running this OS.

It must be a hardware related issue. The best thing to do is dispatch HP hardware to diagnose and correct.

I'd be interested in seeing the /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log file.

Do you have an OS running now? Try to use the online diags memory exerciser.

Remove them and try again (if you have some memory left now).
