10 Chapter1

Preparing for Software Migration

Introduction

This guide describes migrating HP 9000 systems to HP-UX 11i. This new

version of HP-UX delivers hardware enablement, software functionality,

and bundles of important HP-UX applications in Operating

Environments. HP-UX 11i Operating Environments (OEs) are

introduced in the Read Before Installing or Updating to HP-UX 11i

booklet supplied with the HP-UX 11i OE CDs.

HP-UX 11i is the recommended next-level enterprise release for all

HP-UX systems currently running HP-UX 10.x and 11.0.

This manual deals only with the software steps required to update your

HP-UX operating system. For hardware upgrades, either see the

documentation included with your hardware or consult your HP Support

Engineer.

IMPORTANT Be sure to review this entire guide before proceeding to install or update

your system. If you plan to update to HP-UX 11i rather than cold-install

it, carefully review Appendix B for situations that may apply to your

system.

If you have just received a system that was ordered with “Instant

Ignition,” the HP-UX 11i Operating Environment has already been

installed. You do not need to re-install it.

Migration

overview Here’s an overview of this guide and migration process shown on the

• Chapter 1— Prepare for migration to HP-UX 11i. Assess your system

and select the migration path, either cold-installation or update. Back

up your current system and, if needed, create an install depot or

archive. Order and install any additional hardware and software.

• Chapter 2— Migrate to HP-UX 11i using either cold-installation or

update.

• Chapter 3— Verify the migration.

• Chapter 4— Update other applications, as needed.
