This section provides hints and information to help you determine your disk needs for HP-UX 11i. If you need more disk space (HP-UX 11i generally requires a 4GB root volume), be sure to order the equipment and plan on installing it after backing up your current system as explained later in this chapter.

Planning Hints

  • Record the hardware path to the CD or DVD drive.

  • Develop a clear configuration plan, including:

    • File system sizes

    • Swap space size

    • Dump device

    • Disk and file-system parameters

    • Mirroring information

  • If installing application programs other than those supplied within an HP-UX 11i Operating Environment (OE), consider the vendor's size recommendations.

  • When planning disk space, refer to these books:

    • Managing Systems and Workgroups: A Guide for HP-UX System Administrators or HP System Partitions Guide: Administration for Partitions — Both manuals are available on the HP-UX 11i Instant Information CD and at the Hewlett-Packard documentation web site:

      http://docs.hp.com

    • Disk and File Management Tasks on HP-UX — Prentice-Hall Hewlett-Packard Professional Books, 1997.
