error using update-ux with drd runcmd

John Williams_5 — Mon, 08 Mar 2010 18:52:06 GMT

I am trying to use drd runcmd with update-ux to upgrade my current 11iv3 system to 0909. I have the most current drd downloaded from HP and installed update-ux from my depot fro 11iv3 0909. Here is the output:
cl #drd runcmd update-ux -p -v -s ignite:/var/opt/ignite/depots/Rel_B.11.31/DCcoreSept2009|more

======= 03/08/10 13:46:46 EST BEGIN Executing Command On Inactive System Image (user=root) (jobid=cl)

======= 03/08/10 13:46:46 EST END Executing Command On Inactive System Image failed with 1 error. (user=root)

I see that update-ux is not in my drd_safe_command_list.

what is the Update version of your installed OS?
Use swlist to check, I think it needs to be 0903 (March 2009) to actually support the update

Shalom,

Any update process involving update-ux should be abandoned. The tool has never worked for me in the lab more than 50% of the time and I've never let it out of the lab.

Thanks for help Turned out to be a mis-copied depot. I have a mixed PA/IA shop and forgot to turn off depenancies during the copy. Therefore only one of the filesets got copied from the bundle instead of the three in it.
