igniting a C3000 from a B180l

[real2ime]

I have a B180l as an engineering station for our TXP control system. I would like to upgrade to a faster C3000. The B180l is running HPUX 10.2 with has ignite. The initial thought, was to ignite the C3000. I was a tape with make_recovery -A -C. I can resore the B180l using a different harddrive, not the original. When I run the tape on the C3000 it gives a FLT B800 message. The C3000 is fine hardware wise it is running 10.2 initial install from when we got it. No CD's available.
The B180l has 3 lvolums lvol1 is /stand lvol2 is swap and lvol3 everything else.
How to I upgrade the B180l to C3000, essentially run same software on both.

If I remember correctly, Ignite is dependent on hardware so if your C3000 and your B180l are different hardware wise I think the ignite recovery will fail.

Im not sure if during the ignite recovery there is an option there to skip hardware checking.

The other option is to make a golden image of the B180l. and theh restore it on the C3000

check this thread for the FLT B800 message.

Hope I understood your problem correctly.
