HP-UX systems include system configuration logs which describes the current configuration of the system. They are in /var/adm/su/. If you change the system by installing or upgrading it, you should maintain the information in the log and keep it up to date. Log all changes and keep that information for future reference.

When preparing to set up a C2-level trusted system, you could be in any of the following situations:

  • You have just received a new HP computer and you need to install HP-UX Release 10.10 on it.

  • You have an HP computer running an HP-UX release prior to Release 10.10. You need to upgrade HP-UX to Release 10.10.

  • You have an HP computer running HP-UX Release 10.10. Skip to "Conversion Prerequisites."

In the first two cases, you must bring the system up to HP-UX Release 10.10. The installation and upgrade process is beyond the scope of this manual. Refer to additional documentation for information as described below:

  • You should read the Readme Before Installing or Updating to HP-UX 10.10 before referring to other installation or upgrade manuals. It comes with HP-UX Release 10.10 and contains information about last-minute changes to HP-UX Release 10.10 and to the procedures for installing or upgrading your system.

  • You can use the Software Distributor--SD-UX commands to install or update software from a software source (that is, a depot or physical media) to your local host. Refer to Chapter 2 of Managing HP-UX Software with SD-UX for details on installing or copying HP-UX software.

  • If you are currently running 10.x, refer to Installing HP-UX 10.10 and Updating from HP-UX 10.0x to 10.10 for additional installation or upgrade information.

  • If you are currently running 9.x, you must upgrade the system to 10.01 before you can update to 10.10. This involves some pre-upgrade preparation in addition to the upgrade itself. For this you need the package "HP-UX Upgrade Tools for 9. to 10.", which you should have received with HP-UX 10.10. The package includes the manual Upgrading from HP-UX 9.x to 10.x, which explains the upgrade process.
