Regarding setting up ignite-ux

[Satish Kumar_5]

Dear Experts,

I have PA-RISC Rp3440 Server with local SCSI tape drive and HP-UX 11iV2. I want to protect 2x Integrity Rx2660 with HP-UX 11iV3 update 2.So my queries are:

1. Can we use different version of HP-UX used as Ignite server to recover other HP-UX servers?
2. If yes, is there any special way of doing it?
3. Can i store the recovery image of other server to local SCSI tape drive and same can be used for recovery?

Please guide me in right direction as i used ignite quite a long back during HP-UX 11iV1 days and with same OS and plateform.

Thnaks in advance for your support and time.

You can use an 11.23 server to manage 11.11 clients - no problem. Overall there are not so much changes comparing to the version you already know.

Hi Torsten,

thanks for the response. In my case my server is HP-UX 11iV2 (PA_RISC) and the system i want to protect are HP-UX 11iV3 Itanium servers. will it work that way? please help as per queries.

Thanks.

It will work.

HI Torsten,

Thanks a lot for your advice. How to check what is the IGNITE_UX version currently installed? Also do i have install same version of ignite on all servers? I am basically intersted in recovery only.

"swlist" will tell you the version.
It's better to run the same version everywhere.
