Preserving
current iCOD information |
 |
If you reinstall HP-UX on an iCOD system (for example, installing HP-UX
by either cold-installing or installing from a “golden
image”), all information in the iCOD configuration file
disappears unless you do the following:
Before the reinstall, manually save
your iCOD data and processor allocation history by backing up the
following files:
/etc/.iCOD_data
/var/adm/.iCOD_log
/var/adm/.iCOD_log.back
These
files will be restored in Step 3 below. Reinstall the iCOD B.05.x
software bundle B9073AA from the Support Plus
media or the HP Software Depot (software.hp.com).
Restore your iCOD data and
processor allocation history files:
/etc/.iCOD_data
/var/adm/.iCOD_log
/var/adm/.iCOD_log.back
If this is not done, you will lose all of the iCOD change
history and contact information.
Installing “Golden
Images” on a non-iCOD System |
 |
If you attempt to install a golden image of an iCOD B.05.x
system onto another (non-iCOD) HP enterprise server, the result
on the target system is an invalid installation. That is, the iCOD
B.05.x software will be in a non-operational state. You can successfully
remove the iCOD software when the system is in this state by entering
the following command:
/usr/sbin/swremove B9073AA
