The latest version of Software Distributor (SD) tools are installed when you cold-install or use the update-ux command to update your OS. If, after updating the OS, you find that an SD tool is missing or out-of-date, you need to update the entire SD toolset to the latest version from HP-UX 11i v1 media.

Updating SD is easily accomplished using the install-sd command. See “Re-installing SD” in Appendix B “Known Problems and Troubleshooting” for details.

Managing Software Depots

After updating your depot-management server to HP-UX 11i v1, you can manage HP-UX 10.20, 11.0 and 11i software on the same system. This is the preferred depot-management solution. If your depot-management server is running HP-UX 11.0 and has Ignite-UX version 3.5 or higher, it can also handle 10.20, 11.0 and 11i depots. However, if your 11.0 depot-management server is running an Ignite-UX version lower than 3.5, it will not be able to handle 11i depots.

For help setting up and using a depot-management server, see Chapter 4 in the Software Distributor Administration Guide, available on the Instant Information CD and on this web site:
