[Rakesh Jha_1]

I have HPUX server rp3440 running OS version B.11.11. The deatils of CIFS server currently running are -
CIFS-Client A.01.09.01 CIFS Client
CIFS-Development A.02.04a HP CIFS Server Source Code Files
CIFS-Server A.01.10 HP CIFS Server (Samba) File and Print Services

I want to upgrade CIFS server to latest version. For this I have downloaded following depot -
B8725AA_A.02.04a_HP-UX_B.11.11_32_64.depot

When I tried to install I get following error -

I am not able to determine dependency issue. Pl help.

How did you downloaded the depot, download it again with all its dependencies.

Dependency you can Check while downloading depot from "Patch Database"

or check "sw* logs"

if you still prefer to ignore the dependencies you can while using option in ignore dependencies "man swinstall"

Its not advisable to install a base software without dependencies.
So its better to check dependencies before going ahead with ignore_dependencies.

Thanks for prompt reply. I downloaded the depot from HP site and it did not infrom anything about the dependecies.

Do I need to uninstall earlier version of CIFS server?

[Torsten.]

Do you have all the prerequisites?

[Kapil Jha]

what does your sw logs says.It must be throwing some error.

Check this out some s/w are mandatory for CIFS 02.01.Go ahead and install them, these are some security related products so I suppose you may have to keep it in mind :)

>The software dependencies for 6 products or filesets cannot be resolved.

If you look at the various SD logfiles you can find out the dependencies but better to look at the CIFS documentation:
http://www.docs.hp.com/en/netcom.html

[Johnson Punniyalingam]

As mentioned On earlier post, You need to check. CIFS Installation documentation
CIFS Server:
http://h20392.www2.hp.com/portal/swdepot/displayProductInfo.do?productNumber=B8725AA

The installation instructions are included on the download page.

2.) Backup your old config files.

Please refer to page 28-29 of the attached CIFS Admin Guide.



3)Backup your system using Ignite and proceed for the CIFS installation.
