This chapter describes how to install a basic
Ignite-UX server configuration for network booting and installing
HP-UX on clients registered with the server. This chapter does not
discuss support for anonymous clients. For information about how
to set up anonymous clients, see Chapter 4.
For PA-RISC clients, a basic server setup will
use the instl_bootd daemon to answer
boot requests, will not use DHCP for initial system boot, and will
register clients’ IP addresses and LAN addresses in /etc/opt/ignite/instl_boottab.
For Itanium-based clients, a basic server setup
will use the bootpd daemon to answer
boot requests, will not use DHCP for initial system boot, and will
have clients’ IP addresses and LAN addresses registered in /etc/bootptab.
Setting up software depots is the same for PA-RISC
and Itanium-based systems.
