HP-UX 11.00 Patches

[Bill Remenapp]

I have just taken over support for a K580 that appears to have not had any patches applied to it since June, 1999.
What is the best way to get the OS up to the current level?

Use the custom patch manager from the itrc. You need a support contract to use it, but this is the best option, otherwise use the support plus cd's with quarterly patches.

Hi:

Order the latest SupportCDROM or download the latest bundles via this link:

http://us-support2.external.hp.com/common/bin/doc.pl/screen=commonExtensionSW/sid=3c05659b1224df4213

You will want to install the latest 'Quality Pack' and probably the "Hardware Enablement' bundle along with the current DIAGNOSTICS bundle.

Regards!

Hi Bill,

To bring the system to the latest patch level, do a cpm analysis, download and install the patches as a bundle,

check out the faq in the link for more info.

Hope this helps.

Hi Bill:

The best way will be the Custom Patch Manager. With this you can selectively download the patches applicable for your system. Start from here for a better idea:

Hi,
First, you have to get the " support plus CDROM ".
Then, install :
"Quality Pack" and then the "Hardware Enablement" bundle.
With this your system will be at last patch level.
Maybe, then you will need to install additional patches for same aplication.
I hope this help you.
Juanma.
