Updating Using Interactive Software Selection
To interactively select software for an update, use the -i option. For
example:
/usr/sbin/update-ux -s /cdrom -i
update-ux displays swinstall’s interactive user interface with software
already selected to match the default update. Now you can change
software selections. For example, you can select a non-default network
driver or a web browser before performing the update. Since update-ux
selects OS, networking, language, and diagnostic bundles by default, the
interactive user interface provides a way to deselect the default software.
CAUTION Do not combine -i and -x options in the same update-ux command.
IMPORTANT swinstall’s interactive user interface does not provide for selecting
mutually exclusive selectable software bundles. As a result, if you select
more than one HP-UX Bastille security configuration bundle from the
SecurityChoices section of the Select Additional Software screen (for
example, Sec20MngDMZ and Sec30DMZ), HP-UX Bastille will apply the
highest security configuration selected.
For help using swinstall in interactive mode, see the swinstall (1M)
manpage or the Software Distributor Administration Guide.
Updating Selectable Software
To update to HP-UX 11i v2 and include additional selectable software
such as one of the HP-UX Bastille Security Configuration bundles, like
Sec30DMZ (see “Install-time Security Considerations” on page 43):
Step 1. Assuming you are updating from the DVD media, as root, enter:
/usr/sbin/update-ux -x /dvdrom HPUX11-OE Sec30DMZ
