update-ux(1M) update-ux(1M)
NAME
update-ux - updates the HP-UX operating system from new HP-UX media
SYNOPSIS
option=value] software_file] [[sw_selections]...]
DESCRIPTION
The command updates the HP-UX operating system to a newer version.
Use when updating the operating system (OS), and installing or changing operating environments (OEs). works only with source depots con-
taining the OS and OEs such as HP-UX 11i OE DVDs. When using other non-OE media as the source (such as AR), use swinstall(1M) instead.
will always attempt to update the OS. In order to update a system successfully, an Operating Environment must exist in the source. A bun-
dle name does not need to be specified on the command line. By default, update-ux will install the software from the source that matches
and updates the software that is installed on the system. However, if a system does not contain a previous version of an OE, one must be
specified on the command line or in the interactive Terminal User Interface (TUI).
If the current OS is 11.11 or 11.22 , first install onto the existing system. For example:
source_location
where source_location is the path to a depot containing the 11i Update-UX product.
Options
supports these options:
Perform the OE update in the interactive terminal user interface (TUI). For
more information, see the swm(1M) manpage.
Previews an update task by running the session through the analysis phase only.
Turns on verbose output to stdout. (The
logfile is not affected by this option).
Specify the source location. Possible locations are a local
directory, a mounted DVD containing an SD depot, or a remote machine and depot combination. If source_location
is a DVD, expects to install from one DVD. If source_location is a remote machine and depot combination, the
remote machine should be specified first, followed by the absolute path to the remote depot, separated by a
colon with no spaces; for example:
Print the usage statement.
Set swm(1M) options.
Read the list of sw_selections from software_file instead of (or in addition to) the command line.
sw_selections Software selections support the same syntax as the SD commands plus the syntax outlined in below (see swin-
stall(1M) for details on SD's supported syntax).
Software Selections
In addition to the SD syntax, the following syntax is supported for
pattern-matching-expression
Where version can be:
Where op can be:
or
The (equals) relational operator lets you specify selections with the shell wildcard and pattern-matching-expressions:
The syntax causes that selection to be deselected even if it was listed on the command line as part of other selections.
RETURN VALUE
The command returns a value when it is not successful:
Error during execution; update aborted.
DIAGNOSTICS
Standard Output:
An session writes messages for significant events, including:
o Begin-session and end-session messages.
o Major task messages.
Logging:
Errors are recorded in: and
EXAMPLES
To update from the OE depot on an HP-UX 11i OE DVD mounted at enter:
The example above updates the HP-UX 11i Operating Environment (OE).
To install all bundles and products in sw_server that match and update software that is installed on the system:
Which is equivalent to:
The syntax selects all software in the source that matches what is already installed on the system.
To select only software in HPUX11i-OE that matches the software on the target system:
The syntax selects only software in the specified bundle that matches what is already installed on the system.
To update to HPUX11i-OE and include the HP-UX Bastille Security Configuration bundle:
To interactively select software for an update, use the option:
To update the operating environment (OE), explicitly to the MCOE:
To update all the software that is part of the OE except Mozilla:
To select all of HPUX11i-OE except for Perl, which is part of HPUX11i-OE, you could specify the following:
The only exception to this is if the selection is in the Operating Environment's required contents list, in which case it cannot be
deselected without deselecting all of the Operating Environment. Note that deselections have precedence over selections. Thus the
order is not important. The example above would be the same as the following command:
