Any other products would really depends on what the server will be used for, but I would always install Glance, Mirror Disk and Online JFS.

Appropriate patch bundles.
Online Diagnostics
ISEE
SSH
Glance/OnlineJFS etc if you have licenses.

Other usefuls are tools like tusc, which can be handy for debugging etc.

What else you install depends on what the server is, development, production etc?

Re: Additional Products to Install in HPUX

In addition to the purpose of the system, how much money do you have.

Some of the "must have" utilities are cost products. (Glance, MirrorUX, OnlineJFS, etc)

I would still try to wring the $ out, these are very worthwhile products.

Add to the list; PerfView, sudo, lsof, updated PERL, Ignite, cfg2html. PerfView is a cost product, the others you can download for no cost.

By no means is this list exhaustive.

Re: Additional Products to Install in HPUX

I always like getting the C and C++ compilers purchased, and I like putting in Java. Bastille is always a good one, and HP has a souped up version of an Apache distribution that I have put in when needed. There are always people who want joe and emacs editors. I also like to have handy lsof, tusc, and rpl. Load also the ssh set so that you can use ssh, scp and sftp.
