Update HPUX Base OS auxiliary

Hi,

I have a HPUX 11.23.0609 ia64 system with HPUX Base OX Auxiliary B.11.23.0609.
But I want to install a new software in the system that it needs a minium version of HPUX Base OX Auxiliary B.11.23.0706.
So, I need to upgrade the HPUX Base OX Auxiliary package.
Could I update only the HPUX Base OX Auxiliary ?
Do I need to update all the SO ?
Can I download the HPUX Base OX Auxiliary B.11.23.0706 from HP website ?

Thanks in advance.

Re: Update HPUX Base OS auxiliary

To update the subrelease of your OS you'll need a valid software contract. Under your profile you should have a link for software update manager. From there you should be able to order the cd's for an updated 11.23.

For example under request updates I can select Ent OE Media for 11.23. However the last update is dated from June 3 2008.

The link Sooraj provided has instructions on how to update your OS with update-ux. (Chapter 6) Be sure to take a backup of your system before updating.
