To rerun hpinstal and finish applying the CSLT:

  1. Remount the CSLT created by HPINSTAL.

  2. Reinvoke HPINSTAL and resume previous installation.

    :HPINSTAL
  3. If you are performing an Add-on or Update task, go to Step 4.

    If you are performing a Modify Remote System task, go to Step 5.

Add-on Tasks, Update Tasks

  1. Resume previous installation.

    1. Type YES at the prompt.

      If the CSLT was created on the system you are updating, the system displays a message saying it located an old audit trail of an incomplete installation (that is, HPINSTFL.INSTALL.SYS). You must respond YES and resume the installation to complete the task.

    2. Go to Step 5.

    However, if you accidentally responded NO, you can continue by performing the following:

    1. Exit hpinstal by selecting Option 8.

    2. Reinvoke HPINSTAL using the recovery parameter:

      :HPINSTAL RECOVERY
    3. Go to Step 5.

  2. If you are applying a CSLT to a Remote system, go to Step 6.

    If you are performing an Add-on or Update task for the local system only, go to Step 8.

Remote Tasks

  1. Deny any previous installation, if it exists.

    Type NO at the prompt.

    If you are modifying a remote system (the CSLT was created on a local system) and the following message displays, it indicates that HPINSTAL located an old audit trail of an incomplete installation (that is, HPINSTFL.INSTALL.SYS). You must respond NO to properly complete your remote installation task.

  2. From the HPINSTAL menu, select option 5, "Complete the update of this system using a CSLT created on another system," to start the update process on the remote system.

    1 Update this system
    2 Update this system and install patches from a PowerPatch tape
    3 Create a CSLT for another system
    4 Create a CSLT with PowerPatch patches for another system
    5 Complete the update of this system using a CSLT created on
    another system
    6 Add SUBSYS products to this system
    7 Add SUBSYS products and install patches from a Powerpatch
    tape

    Enter your choice >>5

    Go to Step 8.

  3. Restore the STORE portion of the CSLT.

    Mount the CSLT tape and put the tape drive online. If using DDS tape, remove the tape and reinsert it now.

    Mount the CSLT and put the tape drive ONLINE.
    Skipping system files...
    The HP-supported software files will be restored.

    The system then restores files, processes STORE files, creates the accounting structure, and processes installation files.

    FILES RESTORED.
    The SUBSYS tape has been successfully restored.
    Processing STORE Files . . .
    DONE
    DONE

    The time it takes to restore the software files varies depending on which specific subsystems you have on your system.

  4. Follow any additional instructions displayed on the screen, such as mounting other tape volumes (if using half-inch magnetic tapes). Reply to tape requests, if necessary.

    When HPINSTAL finishes the task, you will see the following message:

    The installation is now complete.
  5. Install products that cannot be installed automatically.

    Refer to the list of products in Appendix A “Manually Installed Products” and follow the directions on installing these products.

    • Rerunning HPINSTAL completed. Go to the next section on your checklist.
