Getting the Ignite-UX Software

Ignite-UX is available in standard SD (Software Distributor) depot format from OE and AR media, and from the HP Software Depot Website.

Any Ignite-UX bundle is safe to install at any time. None of the filesets in Ignite-UX bundles will cause a reboot to occur.

OE and AR Media

Ignite-UX released on OE or AR media can only be installed on a server running the HP-UX version supported by the OE or AR media.

This Ignite-UX is the complete product. (The Ignite complete product is capable of installing and recovering all supported versions of HP-UX.)

If you require a version of Ignite-UX that can be installed onto any supported version of HP-UX, read the next section about downloading Ignite-UX from the HP Software Depot Website.

NOTE: As of Ignite-UX version C.7.1, the name of the Ignite-UX complete product bundle that installs all supported versions of HP-UX has changed from B5725AA to IGNITE.

Each bundle can be installed on a server running any version of HP-UX. For example, Ignite-UX-11-23 can be installed on a server running HP-UX 11i v1 (B.11.11). You can install one or more of the individual Ignite-UX-11-xxbundles onto your system.

HP recommends you install the complete Ignite-UX product (IGNITE) unless you want to block the use of a specific version of HP-UX, increase the download speed from the Software Depot website, or conserve disk space on the server.

As a best practice, do not swremove Ignite-UX before updating to a new version. Doing so will cause some files to be reset, including the INDEX file, thus you will lose any customizations.
