Installing HPUX on an Integrity blade
Also, does this model of blade have any mirroring capability by default, or do I have to purchase a mirroring controller?
Thanks

Re: Installing HPUX on an Integrity blade
This makes a difference (iLO2 vs. iLO3; different disk controllers).
Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.

Re: Installing HPUX on an Integrity blade
You could boot the system off a network based Ignite server and completely install without a DVD.
I see to reason for a mirroring controller.

This procedure has a network based boot built in:

Re: Installing HPUX on an Integrity blade
Thanks for the quick response. I have the BL860c i2. Not sure what that means.
Also, going back to my 2nd question, is there a controller built-in for mirroring, or do I have to buy it separately?

Virtual Media requires a purchased license from HP to enable this iLO feature.

Re: Installing HPUX on an Integrity blade
An old ignite image will probably not install easily on this new hardware.
i2 blades are Itanium 2 blades.
You would want to use a Golden image which is more hardware independent, to migrate a system configuration to this hardware. Make a Golden Image and then boot and install from that.
http://docs.hp.com/en/B2355-90772/ch07s02.html
It is nice to have Ignite infrastructure for server recovery and replication.
You can not migrate and change a major OS. You would need to use 11iv2 or 11iv3 image taken off an IA-64 Itanium 2 system to this hardware. More than likely it would have to be based on a recent OE(Operating Environment).

Re: Installing HPUX on an Integrity blade
If you can't setup an Ignite server, ust purchase a USB DVD drive. Your VSOE DVD should be 2011 to support installation on the i2 blade.

Re: Installing HPUX on an Integrity blade
You will see the current setting during boot to EFI.
Use saupdate.efi (from firmware bundle available at hp.com) to change the setting.
Hope this helps!

Torsten.
