This step is needed only if you are installing SoftBench from an HP-UX Application CD. Skip this step if you are installing from a software depot.

SoftBench requires a codeword to allow you to install SoftBench from the CD. The codeword is shipped with your HP-UX Application CD on a certificate entitled Codeword For Updating Software.

To use the codeword, edit the file /etc/update.lib/codeword on each system where you plan to install SoftBench and enter the codeword into that file. Make sure that you have:

  • copied the codeword correctly

  • not entered any extra lines, spaces, or other characters

  • not mistaken any 1 (one) characters for any l (el) characters

  • not mistaken any 0 (zero) characters for any O (uppercase oh) characters

If you are installing SoftBench on more than one system, you can avoid entering the codeword on every system by using a netdist server or a software depot. Refer to the swcopy(1M) reference page for information on creating a software depot.
