We're having two HP-UX boxes. Their model names are specified as '9000/785'. (Output of uname -m).
Can we install the 'HP-Ux 11i V2' OS on these boxes. If not please let us know the appropriate (cheap & best) machine on which we can install HP-Ux 11i V2.
Thanks and Regards,
Srinivas/Joshi

Re: Compatible hardware for installing HP-UX 11i V2
General criteria:
The box must have a procesor that supports a 64 bit processor.
But thats not all, a D380 supports this but is not on the support list.
As far as the best machine goes, that depends on your needs. A power hungry oracle server will require more hardware than a web server.

Re: Compatible hardware for installing HP-UX 11i V2
If money is an issue, buying a new box might be a problem, just as an option you can go and get a refurbished system from HP, might be cheaper if the model you need is available, or just go with an used box from some third party reseller, but if you can buy a new box, that would be the best solution, you will get a warranty for it, the support for it with the warranty, besides spare parts for boxes outthere on the street are really expensive, just in case the machine breaks.

jaime.

Re: Compatible hardware for installing HP-UX 11i V2
Here is the output of the command "model"
# model

I want to know whether I can install HP UX 11i V2 on this.
Thanks in advance.

SolutionYou could try installing it, but I don't think it's going to work. For one thing, 11v2 only comes on DVD and I highly doubt you've got a DVD drive in that box.

Re: Compatible hardware for installing HP-UX 11i V2
Yes, this is of PA8500 CPU set, Kernel Width suppot 64 bit.
As you said, this is not in officially supported list.
Can I replace the existing CDROM with DVD and try to install. Pl let me know will there be any issues with that.
I suppose, ss per the HP site, thsi hardware can go upto 11i v1.
To have 11i v2, we have to have Itanium, is n't it, pl clarify.
Thanks in advance.

All *supported* systems are listed in the release notes on http://docs.hp.com
Your systm is *not* supported, but you can just try to install it - please let us know the results.
Have fun and good luck!
Hope this helps!
