In addition to providing core USB drivers, the USB-00 product, version C.01.00.00, will enable USB DVD boot support for future HP servers. The FEATURE11i patch bundle (delivered on the Operating Environment [OE] media) includes required patches for the installation of the USB-00 bundle.[13] To enable USB DVD boot functionality on Itanium®-based servers, USB-00 version C.01.00.00 is now available as an always-installed product in the HP-UX 11i v2 Operating Environments.
The new version of the USB selectable product differs from its previous versions in the following ways:
If you require multi-seat (multiple monitors) or multi-head (multiple graphics cards), or USB hubs, you should revert to the legacy USB driver delivered as a part of the core kernel by uninstalling this product. See the product README notes for more details. The FEATURE11i patch bundle (delivered on the Operating Environment [OE] media) includes required patches for the installation of the USB-00 bundle.[14] Selection of USB-00 (using the swinstall command) will automatically select the required patches from the FEATURE11i bundle on existing HP-UX 11i v2 Itanium®-based servers. The FEATURE11i bundle is also always-installed for the initial installation or update to a selected OE. With the exception of the X server, the new USB product will not be compatible with any application that accesses human interface devices (HID) through the legacy HID device special files in /dev/hid. The device special files for USB-00 are located in /dev/deviceFileSystem. A future release will ship with a device file system, DevFS, which will dynamically create and destroy device nodes. For further information, review the product README files and the bundle INDEX file in /var/adm/sw/products/USB-00.2/pfiles. |
