My hope is to install the enablement bundles and vpar software while it's on the N class. Then, clone that archive onto the rp8420.
Anyone done this before?
thanks!
ps.. points for all replys!
Solved! Go to Solution.

Vpar software.

Yes the N4000 is supported for vpar.
Well as some the other members have said, it depends a bit on how mutch time you have to test. I think if you download all the latest patch bundles, latest ignite version and drivers for the kernel on your new RP, you will have a good change of succes. But do you realy like to build a new server with a potential problem ?
Hope this helps a bit,
Robert-Jan

Re: Ignite/UX to migrate from N4000 to rp8420?
One thing you mention is moving printers -- there is a handy trick you can do with SAM, to save the entire print spool config to a file, in case you need to restore it. This is just one of the normal options in SAM, in the printer and plotter section.
If you just move that file to the new server and restore it there (from SAM), it should install all printer queues that existed on the N4000 on your shiny new rp8420.
Exporting and importing Volume Groups is pretty easy and straightforward as well. Hopefully you can nail it all down on one, and the other(s) will fall like dominos.
Best Regards, --bmr

Re: Ignite/UX to migrate from N4000 to rp8420?
And Yes, you can use Ignite/UX to migrate your existing 11i rp7400 environments to your rp8420. Or you can simply transport the disks over and "fix vg00".
I've done migrations of 11i environments in the past and there were no issues. If you're licensed for Enterprise OE from your smallest PA8700+/PA8800 systems to the biggest, you should be able to migrate OS's easily and safely via Ignite/UX or simply transporting the OS disk.

Re: Ignite/UX to migrate from N4000 to rp8420?
We have make an Ignite tape from N4000 HPUXi to rebuild an RP8420 and when the server start booting we have this screen :
Boot Path Initialized.
HARD Booted.
ISL Revision A.00.43 Apr 12, 2000
ISL booting hpux
Boot

Re: Ignite/UX to migrate from N4000 to rp8420?
Is this after your ignite tape recovery completes? As you can see you are booting from disk not tape. If your recovery completed and you are exected to boot from disk, how long does it hang there? My 8420 stops at that point for about 6-8 minutes.

Installation from ignite tape working fine and a new kernel is build a the end.
After that, the RP8420 is rebooting and stoping when he's logind kernel.. but since 2 days, the server is always stop at this point.....
Strange....
