Make_net_recovery

I have a system that is running hp-ux 11.0 in Production the client can't upgrade to newer OS. When this system was loaded the utility ignite wasn't loaded. Where can I find the client software for this package. Be nice to me this is my first day supporting hp.

Your best bet would be to look on any HP-UX applications CDs that you have. It should be on one of them, thought I don't remember which one. Maybe #1?

The problem is that HP-UX 11.0 is out of support and there is no software available for download for it anymore.

I have found a cd-rom for hp-ux 11.0 but find the package for ignite client I have not been able to do. Can you by change tell me what directory to look in.

I think just about every application CD/DVD set has a catelog or index ascii file in the first directory.

grep though it. It will tell you the package name "Ignite-ux" and what CD it is on.

or (something like)

swlist @ /cdrom |grep -i ignite

Joseph,

Follow the steps like:

1. Mount CD/DVD rom to /cdrom(create it if it is not present) folder.

ioscan -fnkC disk |grep -i dvd
mount /dev/dsk/cxtxdx /cdrom
or
mount -F cdfs -o ro /dev/dsk/c?t?d0 /cdrom

2. swlist -i -s /cdrom

see if you can find Ignite-ux in the list.

cheers!!
