Ignite setup on the SA Core

To provision HP-UX servers, you must set up Ignite Configurations. This includes:

  • updating the configuration file
  • updating the Index file
  • copying the golden image archives on each SA core

For detailed information on Ignite-LUX software on a server running Linux, see http://www.hp.com/go/ignite-ux-docs.

The following tasks are required to set up the 11.31 golden archive-based configuration on the SA Core:

  • Copy over the sample golden image to the following location:

    /var/opt/ignite/archives/B.11.31/

  • Copy over the corresponding .cfg file to following location:

    /var/opt/ignite/data/Rel_B.11.31/B.11.31_archive_IA.cfg

  • Add an entry in /var/opt/ignite/INDEX for the configuration as follows:

    cfg "HP-UX B.11.31 Opsware Archive" {

    description "This selection supplies the sample golden archive

    created by the IUX team"

    "/opt/ignite/data/Rel_B.11.31/config"

    "/opt/ignite/data/Rel_B.11.31/hw_patches_cfg"

    "/var/opt/ignite/data/Rel_B.11.31/B.11.31_archive_IA.cfg"

    "/var/opt/ignite/data/config.local"

    }

If you use HP-UX OS Provisioning, the following steps are required on the SA Core with Ignite installed:

  1. Edit the /etc/exports file
  2. Change the following line:

    /var/opt/ignite/clients *(ro,no_root_squash,async)

  3. to

    /var/opt/ignite/clients *(rw,no_root_squash,async)

  4. Run "exportfs -a"
