Lightbulb 10.20 Support Plus ODE useage and password
Hello.
I have inherited an HP 9000 workstation and it came bundled with the HP-UX 10.20 Support Plus diagnostics. I would like to use these diags on my system but when I execute them I am prompted for a password. Is there a general password for using this disk, or is there a way around this?
Also, how do I create a dedicated partition to install the diags onto my HP-UX system and make it bootable?

Thank you,
Gerard.

At the time, you had a password that was issued by HP and changed every month...And was for HP staff (from what I remember...) but depending of your support level you may have had access...
Now that its out of support I have no idea... But Im surprised its asking you a password at all, I remember it asking for certain tools only such as copyutil and some fancy scsi facilities...
