Can I create a software depot from the HP-UX update DVDs?

All,

I need to install a package (DHCP v4, to be specific) on a system that doesn't have it, and I don't have the original install DVDs.  I do, however, have the March 2015 update discs.  Is there a way that I can install the package I need from that disc?   Will I need to convert the directory structure that's on the disc to a depot package?

 

Thank you for the help,

Jason

If you want a directory depot, you can use swcopy to copy the depot.

If you want a tape depot, you need to use swpackage.
