Hi,

Install update-ux from the media to the system with:
# swinstall -s /SD_CDROM Update-UX

then
# /usr/sbin/update-ux -s /SD_CDROM HPUX11i-OE

1) I recommend against upgrade-ux. A cold install produces better results.

2) If you do run upgrade-ux, when done, all the HP provided applications should be upgraded to the 11i version.

3) Vendor applications like Oracle have their own instructions. Some don't support the upgrade, require a new, cold install. Some require you to relink the application.
