Upgrading HPUX
- Thread starter Mag0007
- Start date
You can upgrade from the install cd's, however, wouldn't recommend it - best to rebuild from scratch, a nice clearout and a fresh start.
I built many systems, no issues. I've upgraded 2 and both had problems, even though I followed the recommended procedure.

HP offer documentation about upgade, has been a while since I've done it, seem to recall you just run whatever the command was and leave it to it.
I really would recomend a re-build, yes, takes longer and is more hard work, but the final outcome is that you know exactly where you are.
I work for a large company (+1800 servers, of various types) and as a rule we never "upgrade", always rebuild - have had too many issues.
