how to learn HP-UX
Hello,
I am in the process of learning HP-UX on L-Series system.
My job requires me to use it as a test system to test tape drives with leading industry backup apps. and test patches.
So what I need, is to be able to install, make changes to the config/system, install patches, troubleshoot tape drives and run backup apps.
so far I can install the OS, run tar etc. but I do have problem troubleshooting when it comes to for example; if tape drive is not seen by the OS or compression not working etc.
I am reading "HP Cerified" HP-UX Admin. book by Rafeeq Ur Rehman, can someone please recommend a faster way to accomplish above mentioned tasks? if possible i-e to the point approach.
Thanks in advance.

Re: how to learn HP-UX
You will get numerous answers most
with the exact commands to use. You can
then do a man on the commands to learn further
details. I call this hands on learing. Not only are
you learning but your getting your job done at the same time.
When you do post a question please include all the details
OS version Patch Level error messages etc... the more
detailed the better.
Oh yes and don't forget to award points for those who take
the time to help and educate you.

Also, go through the forums and technical documents in itrc.hp.com. All these will be a good start for you and the rest you will learn from experience.

Re: how to learn HP-UX
If you need to know, spend time in your book. Sure, theory may not be required, but knowledge is.
Skimming past the theory parts may help, but the knowledge is absorbed at your pace, not any books.
Remember that in all Unices, man pages are your friend. not only do they give info on the command you want, but at the end of the man page they will list other commands that are relevant.
Regards,
Shannon

Re: how to learn HP-UX
Lean a form of programming. Shell is great place to start, once you are comfortable with that turn your hand to something like perl.
Here are a couple of postings of valuable shell scripts:
