After selecting Go! to initiate a new installation, and also after confirming a repeat installation, Ignite-UX executes a preinstallation consistency check to identify any errors that must be corrected before the installation occurs (Figure 10-49).

Figure 10-49 Installation Confirmation Dialog Box

Installation Confirmation Dialog Box

The confirmation dialog box lists disks that are to be written to during the installation process, and a preinstallation analysis log of any notes, warnings, or errors.

  • If you do not want to proceed with the installation at this time, click <Back.

  • View the preinstallation analysis using the scroll bars. Be sure to inspect all of the information and ensure that the correct disk is identified for installation.

  • All listed errors must be corrected before you can proceed with the installation.

After you have reviewed all of the information and determined whether or not the client installation can continue, click Go!.

As the installation proceeds, a Client Status... dialog box is displayed to allow monitoring of the installation progress.

Client Status... Dialog Box

The information is updated automatically as the status of the client changes.

You can view specific installation information using the View Logfile... button, which invokes a dialog box displaying the log file as it is written to during the installation.

Installation Log File

Carefully review the scrolling status information for errors. Continuous scrolling is the default behavior. Toggle scrolling on and off with the Automatic Scrolling checkbox.

The complete installation log is available on the Ignite-UX server in /var/opt/ignite/clients/hostname/install.log.

NOTE: Because errors can occur during the installation that result from other components within HP-UX, all errors may not be written to this log file.
