See Managing HP-UX Software with SD-UX and the swcopy (1M), swinstall (1M) and swremove (1M) man pages for complete information on all aspects of HP-UX installation.

For information about migrating from HP-UX 10.x to HP-UX 11.0, see Installing HP-UX 11.0 and Updating HP-UX 10.x to 11.0 (B2355-90153).

Migration Procedures

HP highly recommends that you do a system backup before starting to do an update.

Migrating a System Without Retaining Cell Configuration

If you are migrating an HP DCE 1.5 server on HP-UX 10.20 to HP DCE 1.7 on HP-UX 11.0, but you do not want to preserve your existing cell configuration:

  1. Stop the cell using dce_config STOP at each cell member or run DCM from SAM to stop the entire cell.

  2. Use dce_config REMOVE or run the DCM from SAM to remove the cell databases.

  3. Upgrade the system from HP-UX 10.20 to HP-UX 11.0.

  4. Install HP DCE 1.7 software as described in Chapter 4, and reconfigure DCE.

Migrating a System and Preserving Current Cell Configuration

If you are migrating an HP DCE 1.5 server on HP-UX 10.20 to HP DCE 1.7 on HP-UX 11.0, and you want to preserve your existing cell configuration, perform the following steps:

  1. If you are migrating a security server system, stop secd using the dcecp -c registry stop replica-name command.

  2. Stop DCE on the system, using the dce_config STOP command from the main menu; DFS will not run on HP DCE 1.6 or 1.7; if DFS is running, ignore any warnings concerning running processes.

    CAUTION: Hewlett-Packard recommends that you create a single network source area (depot) containing HP-UX 11.0 and HP DCE 1.7 software, so you can simultaneously install HP-UX 11.0 and HP DCE 1.7. If you do not install HP-UX 11.0 and HP DCE 1.7 at the same time, your old HP DCE 1.5 servers will be automatically started when your system reboots after HP-UX 11.0 installation completes. This is an unsupported configuration.

  3. Prepare the network source area (depot) using swcopy. The depot should contain both HP-UX 11.0 and HP DCE 1.7 software.

  4. Upgrade the system from HP-UX 10.20 to HP-UX 11.0. If you installed from a unified network source area as recommended above, installation of HP DCE 1.7 is complete.

    NOTE: If you did not install from a unified network source area, you must continue with Steps 5 through 7.

  5. Perform this step only if you did not install HP-UX from a unified network source area as recommended above.

    Stop DCE on the system, using the dce_config STOP command from the main menu.

  6. Perform this step only if you did not install HP-UX from a unified network source area as recommended above.

    Install HP DCE 1.7 as described in Chapter 4.

  7. Perform this step only if you did not install HP-UX from a unified network source area as recommended above.

    Restart DCE using the dce_config START command from the dce_config main menu or using DMC.
