Client installation from Ignite-UX hangs at swinstall

[Bejoy C Alias]

If I do a client installation of 11.11 from the Ignite-UX Server ( C.7.7.93 ) , the installation hangs just while starting the swinstall. The same client works fine with 11.23 & 11.31 installations from the same ignite server. I tried setting the env_vars += "SDU_DEBUG_RPC=1"
sd_command_line += "-x logdetail=true -x loglevel=2" parameters , but there are no further debugging information.

This is the last output I could see on the client console , it does not go further.

* Starting swinstall of the source (HP-UX B.11.11).
* Running command: "/usr/sbin/swinstall
-s192.168.1.10:/var/depot/B.11.11
-f/tmp/ign_configure/software_file -x os_release=B.11.11 -x
os_name=HP-UX:64 -xpatch_filter=*.* -xpatch_save_files=true -x
logdetail=true -x loglevel=2"

I tried keeping the system at this point for complete 1 day :) to see anything happening at the background. But nothing ...

Anyone else faced this problem before ?

hi


perhaps need o check with a running 11.11 client if the depot from the Ignite server 192.168.1.10 at the directory /var/depot/B.11.11 is installable using swinstall ...

might be more clear what is the HW paltform the Ignite Installtion is being carried out?

just few thoghts

Sujith, Its works fine for normal package installations on 11.11 from the same depot. The system on which I am trying to install 11.11 is rp3410 with latest BMC/MP firmware installed.

Triage suggestions:
- look in s192.168.1.10:/var/depot/B.11.11/swagent.log, see if anything is logged from this swinstall attempt
- turn on Ignite debug levels, easiest way is from initial ignite console panel, Advanced Options
- wondering if you are crossing routers with some required swinstall LAN protocols disabled..?
