Hi, Set up Ignite-UX sever ======================== 1) Install the product #swinstall -s 2) Verfiy the installation and note down the versions #swlist -l product|grep -i ignite 3) Modify PATH and MANPATH variables PATH=$PATH:/opt/ignite/bin export PATH MANPATH=$MANPATH:/opt/ignite/share/man export MANPATH 4) Create software depots #mk_depots -r B.11.31 -s #mk_depots -r B.11.31 -s /dev/dsk/c0t0d0 The software depot is normally created in the following directory, but can be placed in a common deployment location on another server: /var/opt/ignite/depots/Rel_B.11.31 5) Create Ignite-UX configuration file #mk_config -c -s eg. #/opt/ignite/bin/make_config c /var/opt/ignite/data/Rel_B.11.31/core_cfg -s 192.168.112.231:/depot/HPUX-11.31 6) Create Index #manage_index -a -f /var/opt/ignite/data/Rel_B.11.31/core_cfg -r B.11.31 7) Verify and examine the configuration file for following parameters. (/var/opt/ignite/data/Rel_B.11.31/core_cfg) source_format= SD sd_server= sd_depot_dir= ==================================== sw_source "core" { description = "HP-UX Core Software" source_format = SD sd_server = "192.168.112.231" sd_depot_dir = "/depot/HPUX-11.31" source_type = "NET"

load_order = 0 =================================== 8) Verify and examine the Index file(/var/opt/ignite/INDEX) for following parameters. Check for the entry, cfg "HP-UX 11.31 Default" ================================================== cfg "HP-UX B.11.31 Default" { description "This selection supplies the default system configuration that HP supplies for the B.11.31 release." "/opt/ignite/data/Rel_B.11.31/config" "/opt/ignite/data/Rel_B.11.31/hw_patches_cfg" "/var/opt/ignite/data/Rel_B.11.31/core_cfg" "/var/opt/ignite/config.local" ========================================================

9) Check the entry in /etc/dfs/dfstab and ensure that NFS is running . share -F nfs -o anon=2 -d "Ignite Clients" /var/opt/ignite/clients share -F nfs -o anon=2,ro -d "HPUX 11.23 Depot" /depot/HPUX-11.23 share -F nfs -o anon=2,ro -d "HPUX 11.31 Depot" /depot/HPUX-11.31 #ps -ef|grep nfsd

10) Check the entries in /etc/inetd.conf for tftpd,bootpd tftp dgram udp wait root /usr/lbin/tftpd tftpd\ /opt/ignite\ /var/opt/ignite bootps dgram udp wait root /usr/lbin/bootpd bootpd

11) Collect Client MAC address. Shell>lanaddress Shell> lanaddress LAN Address Information LAN Address Path ----------------- ---------------------------------------*Mac(001B787AF2EA) Acpi(HWP0002,PNP0A03,100)/Pci(1|0)/Mac(001B787AF2EA) Mac(001B787AF2EB) Acpi(HWP0002,PNP0A03,100)/Pci(1|1)/Mac(001B787AF2EB) Mac(001B787AF2E6) Acpi(HWP0002,PNP0A03,200)/Pci(2|0)/Mac(001B787AF2E6) Mac(001B787AF2E7) Acpi(HWP0002,PNP0A03,200)/Pci(2|1)/Mac(001B787AF2E7)

12) Edit /etc/bootptab and enter client inforamtions #vi /etc/bootptab ignite-defaults:\ ht=ethernet:\ hn:\ bf=/opt/ignite/boot/nbp.efi:\ bs=48 :\ tc=ignite-defaults:\ ha=001B787AF2EA:\ ip=192.168.112.177:\ sm=255.255.0.0:\ gw=192.168.114.252:\ ds=190.1.48.11 13) Restart inetd #inetd -c
