Overview

This is the definitive guide to installing and administering HP-UX 11i Version 2 in any environment, on both HP 9000 and HP Integrity server families.

Drawing on 18 years of on-site HP-UX consulting experience, Marty Poniatowski offers unparalleled practical insight into running HP-UX 11i efficiently and reliably, illuminating features even experienced HP-UX sysadmins find confusing. Poniatowski organizes this book around your day-to-day needs and your system's lifecycle. He begins with in-depth coverage of installation and bootup, then walks through everything from LVM and kernel configuration through networking. He especially focuses on the capabilities and tools that make HP-UX unique—and how you can use them to save time and money. Coverage includes

  • Partitioning from start to finish—including vPars and nPartitions installation, creation, and modification

  • Booting HP Integrity systems with EFI, and HP 9000 systems with PDC, ISL, or hpux

  • Mastering the Management Processor (MP): console, virtual front panel, and command menu

  • Using HP-UX's new kernel-building commands: kcconfig, kcusage, kctune, kcmodule, and more

  • Working with HP-UX's new web-based tools: pd (devices), parmgr (partitions), and kcweb (kernel)

  • Mapping LBA to slot numbers: clear explanations of a non-intuitive technique

  • Using Ignite-UX to boot and recover systems across the network

  • Managing disks, devices, backup, users/groups, and much more
