See this swlist command:

The Ignite-UX product itself does not require a reboot. 

If you have the desired version of Ignite-UX already installed on a server, this server can then be used as the swinstall source to upgrade other servers as follows.

Create the depot on the "installed" server using the pkg_rec_depot command.

myserver1# /opt/ignite/lbin/pkg_rec_depot

pkg_rec_depot is nice in that it creates a depot using currently installed files, so the disk space required for the depot is much less.  See the pkg_rec_depot manpage for additional info. 

Once the depot has been created on the source you can upgrade other servers.

myserver2:  swinstall -s myserver1:/var/opt/ignite/depots/recovery_cmds Ignite-UX

After installation use "swlist -l fileset Ignite-UX" to verify the new version and that all filesets are at the same revision.
