ignite post load problem

[Denny Denekas]

I need to start over with this. I am using HPUX 10.20 Ignite Version A.2.6.358 with a Golden image to ignite over the network to my HPUX client install base (not a recovery tape). I am using a corporate made "golden Image" and then customing a few files for my admin environment. ie I want to modify some system files for CDE/VUE , nsswitch.conf and so on. For some reason the post load will copy some file into places below /etc/ but not others. Example: /etc/vue/config/sys.vuewmrc and /etc/nsswitch.conf will not copy but /etc/passwd and /etc/profile will. I notice the /etc/ and /etc/vue and /etc/vue/config all have permissions of 555. I have even set permissions on etc and so on to 777 for a test prior to the post load command and still does not work. I am using the Ignite post load script to execute a /usr/bin/cp command. The following line is
in my COE (common operating environment) cfg
post_config_script += "/var/opt/ignite/scripts/S700_coe_setup.sh"
Thanks for the first response but I am not using a recovery tape.

Hi,

Just a thought:

If you are not using -R option with cp command, then make use of it.

# cp -R ( for recursive subtree copy)

HTH,

The first thing I'd still do is upgrade your version of Ignite. The current version of Ignite/UX for 10.20 is A.3.6.82.
