Resuscitating an old D-Class server

[J_Bromberger]

So, just for the fum of it all, I have gotten my hands on an old D-Class server and I want to get it up and running again.  I have the install media for HP-UX 10.20, which was the last version I used at about the time that these systems were newish.  What I am trying to find are the patches needed to bring it up to "the final state".  Now, it seems that none of the patches have ever been archived in a public place, so I am forced to knock on the HPE castle door looking for stale scraps of bread.

I suspect that this is not going to be free in any stretch of the imagination.  But if I want to buy a short term (say, one month or one quarter) of minimal service just so I can download the patches, does anybody know what level this is called and possibly how much I will spend?

Thanks in advance for helping me bring my personal dinosaur out of Jurrasic PA-Park and back into the sunshine!

I'm in the same boat, except mine is a Itanium system.   I've tried everything.   Including trying to get a price listing for a Licence to use but not even that turned out to be possible.  I was bounced back and forth between HPE and various partners, all to no avail.

So I suggest you just give up now.   HPE has absolutely no interest in enthusiasts, hobbyists, people with HP-UX certifications or even the Legacy of HP-UX.

Rikki.
