For Phase II of HP Patch/iX, you must log onto the system Console and have exclusive access to your system.

To rerun HP Patch/iX and finish applying the CSLT or STORE tape:

Log onto the Console.
```
  :HELLO MANAGER.SYS,INSTALL;HIPRI
```

Lower session and job limits.
```
  :LIMIT 1,1
```
Warn, then log off users.
```
  :WARN@ PLEASE LOG OFF! SYSTEM UPDATE ABOUT TO BEGIN
```
Use the SHOWJOB command to determine session and job numbers. Then, for each job and session still executing (except yours), type:
```
  :ABORTJOB #Jnn
  :ABORTJOB #Snnn
```
where:

Jnn

the ID number for each job to be aborted.

Snnn

the ID number for each session to be aborted.

Ensure that the network is not running.

  :NSCONTROL STOP
  :NSCONTROL ABORT
  :NETCONTROL STOP

Reset the outfence.
```
  :OUTFENCE 14
```
Stop each automatically spooled network printer.
```
  :SPOOLER print_device;STOP;OPENQ
```
where print_device is the LDEV or class of the network printer.
Make sure the LP and STREAMS device are up.
```
  :OPENQ LP
  :SPOOLER LP;START
  :STREAMS streams_device
```
A common streams_device value is 10. An LP device must be configured in SYSGEN.
Rerun HP Patch/iX.
```
  :RUN PATCHIX.INSTALL.SYS
```

You must respond YES to resume the installation and complete the task at the prompt:

  HP Patch/iX has found a recovery file that indicates phase I
  completed successfully, are you ready to begin phase II of
  HP Patch/iX (y/n)?

NOTE: This prompt is provided to allow you to continue, in the event that you halted the HP Patch/iX process prior to completing the CSLT creation (Phase I).

If you accidentally type NO, HP Patch/iX purges all audit files and rebuilds them. If you did not complete the CSLT/STORE or STORE only creation (Phase I), you will have to start your patching process from the beginning. However, if you have completed the steps and procedures correctly up to now, you can go directly into Phase 2 of Patch/iX by typing: :PATCHIX PHASE2

If you are performing an Add-on (SUBSYS) task, proceed to Step 11.
If you are performing a Manage Patch task only, proceed to Step 12.

Add-on Tasks

Mount the SUBSYS tape when prompted, put the tape drive online, and press [Return].
The time it takes to restore the software files varies depending on which specific subsystems you have on your system. Watch for this message that the files are restored:
```
  FILES RESTORED.
  The SUBSYS tape has been successfully restored.
  Processing STORE Files . . .
  DONE
  DONE
```
Go to Step 12.
Mount the CSLT tape, put the tape drive online, and reply to the prompt.
```
  Mount the CSLT and put the tape/DDS drive ONLINE.
  The HP-supported software files will be restored.
```
The system then restores files, processes STORE files, creates the accounting structure, and processes installation files.
Follow any additional instructions displayed on the screen.
Reply to tape requests, if necessary.
When HP Patch/iX finishes the task you specified, you will see the following message:
```
  The installation is now complete.
```
