Before You Begin

Before you update to HP-UX 11i v3, make sure that:

You are updating from a supported migration path. See “Supported Update Paths to HP-UX 11i v3”.
Your system meets the system requirements to update and operate HP-UX 11i v3. For more details see Chapter 2: “System Requirements for Cold-Installing and Updating”.
You have completed the preparation tasks required to update your system. For more information see Chapter 4: “Preparing to Cold-Install or Update to HP-UX 11i v3”.

NOTE: Updating from a release of HP-UX to a version of HP-UX that was released earlier in time is not supported. This could cause system incompatibilities and unpredictable results. If you attempt to update to an earlier version of HP-UX, the update process will stop without making any changes to your system and you will get the following error message:

ERROR: You are attempting to update from your release of HP-UX to
a version of HP-UX that was released earlier in time.  This is not
supported.  The update process has stopped without making any changes
to your system.  Please see the 'Supported Update Paths' section of
the HP-UX 11i v3 Installation and Update Guide for more information.
