hpux 11.0 CD media and basic configurations

[Hanry Zhou]

Now, I still have following questions leftL

1. How come I don't have "Core OS CD" in my media box? I have install/update/recover CD, but not Core OS CD.

2. What configurations I should choose within "Basic Configuration":
- HP-UX 11.0 default configurtion or
- Technical Computing configuration or
- The Commercial Servers configuration

Hi:

1. The Install/Update/Recover CDROM is the Core OS CD.

2. Choose the 'Commercial Servers" configuration. If I recall correctly, the default configuration leaves out some CDE and langtools filesets.

Regards!

Hanry,

1) Same thing, different names. It used to be called Core OS, HP like changing the names of things to confuse people, I think.

2) Depends. First off, what do you intend to use the server for. In your previous thread, I believe Cheryl posted a link to the Installing and Updating document which would probably explain your choices better than I can as I've never faced this choice.

The document only listed these 3 options within Basic Cofiguration, but I am not so clean on what exactly option people should choose.

Harry,

Three weeks ago I ordered everything from June 2003 on 11i, Core OS, Applications and Patches.

The only thing that came in so far is Patches.

I believe there is a manufacturing or shipping problem.

If your need is urgent, HP can probably get you the March 2003 Core OS overnight.

Contact your representitive by phone.
