Boot and Install Client from Media

Cold install or update a single system directly from media kit DVDs

You can use the HP-UX 11i media kit DVDs with Ignite-UX to cold install or update a system. For more information, see the HP-UX Installation and Update Guide for your version of HP-UX, available at http://www.docs.hp.com.

Cold install from custom media

This option assumes you have already created custom installation media. Custom installation media can be a tape or DVD with either a golden image or a recovery image on it. All installation media are bootable. After you boot from media, choose Media only installation as a Source Location Option from the Ignite-UX User Interface and Media Options screen. For more information, see Chapter 14.

Recovery from tape

This option assumes you have already created a recovery tape. For more information, see “Creating and Using Recovery Tapes”.
