You can cold-install from any supported HP-UX OS. (See Table 3-1,
Supported Systems, on page 44.)
The cold-install process using Ignite-UX is described in Chapter 5. See
Preparing to Cold-Install Your System on page 81 for more
information.

Update When...
You can update rather than cold-install HP-UX 11i when you are
updating from HP-UX 10.20 or 11.0 as well as the following:
NOTE
Current disk space is sufficient for HP-UX 11i (see Planning Your
Disk Space Needs on page 76).
update-ux removes all HP-UX 10.x patches from the system prior to
updating to HP-UX 11i. Any 10.x applications left on the system after
the update may not be supportable if they required those patches. After
migrating your system, consult the documentation for those remaining
applications for HP-UX 11i requirements.

N-Class
Chapter 2
HP strongly recommends that you install any firmware patches after you
have completed the cold-install or update process and your system is
running HP-UX 11i. Specific HP-UX 11i firmware patches are available
at the following website:
http://itresourcecenter.hp.com
MLIB Temporarily Removed from TCOE Operating Environment
With the December 2002 release of HP-UX 11i, MLIB was temporarily
removed from the OE media. A supplemental CD-ROM has been
provided and instructions for installing or updating MLIB can be found
in Installing MLIB (TCOE Customers) on page 132
Updating Network Drivers
Installing or updating to HP-UX 11i will install a minimum set of default
networking drivers that apply to the system (see Table 4-1, HP-UX 11i
Software Bundles and Descriptions, on page 70). You may need to select
or specify other available networking drivers to enable other cards on
your system (see Table 4-2, HP-UX 11i Selectable Drivers, on page 72).
This can easily be done during install or update by following the
instructions for your selected migration path.
Installing or updating HP Apache-based web server
If your system already is running any version of the HP Apache-based
Web Server, installing or updating to an HP-UX 11i Operating
Environment will not install the version of Apache included with the
HP-UX 11i OE. If you wish to install the version of Apache provided with
HP-UX 11i, you should swinstall it after migrating your system to
HP-UX 11i. See Chapter 8 for example uses of the swinstall command.
Chapter 2

NOTE
CAUTION
If you have NDS version B.02.00.05 and are updating to HP-UX 11i, be
sure to either select the new version of NDS during the update or remove
the old version from your system. If you run NDS version B.02.00.05
with HP-UX 11i, the server will cease to work and all client systems may
lose the ability to have anyone log in.

Chapter 2
Update Considerations
The following sections provide additional information to assist you in
your decision to update to HP-UX 11i:
Updating from an HP-UX 11i TCOE With MLIB
Due the the temporary removal of MLIB software from the the TCOE
operating environment media, if you are updating your system from a
previous or current version of the HP-UX 11i TCOE operating
environment, you will need to remove MLIB prior to installing MLIB
from the HP Math Library (MLIB) supplemental CD. For more information,
please review the update procedures in Chapter 6, Updating to HP-UX
11i, on page 101 and Installing MLIB (TCOE Customers) on page 132.
VxVM Rootability Not Enabled with update-ux
With the September 2002 release of HP-UX 11i, you can not enable
VxVM rootability through the update process using update-ux. If you
wish to manage your root volume with VxVM, you can choose to either
enable rootability by:
Chapter 2

Updating to 64-bit OS
update-ux defaults to the OS word-width that your system is currently
running. For example, if the target system is running 32-bit OS, this will
be the default for the new OS to be installed.

Chapter 2
(New drivers installed by default are listed in Table 4-1, HP-UX 11i
Software Bundles and Descriptions, on page 70. Other drivers can
be specified in the update-ux command or installed later using
swinstall.)
To determine if any EISA drivers are installed on the system, use
swlist. For example:
/usr/sbin/swlist -l bundle 100BaseT-00 FDDI-03 \
TermIO-01 TokenRing-02
If any EISA drivers are on the system, remove them. For example, to
remove the TermIO-01 EISA MUX driver, as root enter:
/usr/sbin/swremove -x autoreboot=true TermIO-01
The kernel will automatically regenerate and the system will reboot
after you remove each driver. After removing all EISA drivers,
proceed to update as explained below.
If you're updating from HP-UX version 11.0 or higher, update-ux will
determine if your hardware and firmware are compatible with 64-bit
operation. If you're updating from HP-UX version 10.20, however, refer
to the Software Transition Kit available on the HP-UX Applications
media. The STK contains tools and documents to assess applications or
libraries that run on HP-UX 10.20 and 11.0 and help transition them to
the HP-UX 11i 64-bit operation. The ITRC web site

Cold-Install Considerations
The following sections provide additional information to assist you in
your decision to cold-install HP-UX 11i:
Using VxVM Rootability
Ignite-UX now provides you the option to install and configure VxVM 3.5
on your root volume. If you plan to configure your root volume with
VxVM 3.5, make sure you read the supporting VxVM 3.5 documentation
included on the Instant Information CD. For additional information, see
VxVM Rootability on page 77
Cold-Installing on Partitioned Systems
HP-UX must be installed on the boot disk assigned to each partition
after the partition has been configured. Configuring the boot disk is
explained in the HP System Partitions Guide manual, available on the
HP-UX 11i Instant Information CD and on HPs user-documentation web
site:
http://docs.hp.com
Once each partition has been configured for installation, follow the
cold-installation instruction on the following pages to install HP-UX on
each partitions boot disk.
Instant Ignition
For customers ordering new systems with the Instant Ignition option
(also known as factory integrated), the cold-installation process
described here has already been performed. Skip this chapter and
proceed to install application software.
Alternate Cold-Install Methods
In addition to the procedures described in this chapter, you can

How to Identify Your Systems Model, OS and Software
The following topics will show how to obtain your current system
information:
Identify model
Identify OS and OE To identify the OS version that your system is currently running, enter:
uname -r
To update to HP-UX 11i, your system must be currently running either
B.10.20 or B.11.00. After cold-installing or updating to HP-UX 11i,
youll notice that uname identifies the HP-UX 11i release as B.11.11.
When a system has HP-UX 11i installed, you can determine which
revision of HP-UX 11i is installed by entering the following command:
/usr/sbin/swlist -l bundle
The HWEnable11i and HPUXBaseAux bundles indicate the current
installed revision level. The revision level is indicated both in the bundle
version number (for example, B.11.11.0209) and the description text
(for example, Hardware Enablement Patches for HP-UX 11i, March
2003).
To identify the Operating Environment currently installed on your
system, use swlist. For example:

VxVM Rootability
With the September 2002 release of HP-UX 11i, you can choose to
manage your root volume using either HPs Logical Volume Manager
(LVM) or VERITAS Volume Manager (VxVM) 3.5.
You can choose to configure your root volume during installation with
Ignite-UX, or you can use the conversion tools installed with VxVM 3.5 to
configure your root volume at a later time. For more information, please
read the VERITAS Volume Manager 3.5 Installation Guide for more
details.
NOTE
You can not configure your root volume with VxVM during the update
process using the update-ux command. Instead, you must use the
cold-install process using Ignite-UX to enable rootability.
IMPORTANT
Before you consider setting your root volume to VxVM 3.5, be sure to
read the VERITAS Volume Manager 3.5 Release Notes and the VERITAS
Volume Manager 3.5 Migration Guide for more detailed information
about VxVM and rootability

Ignite-UX recovery For recovering a system, a better alternative to using fbackup and
commands
frecover is to use the recovery commands available with Ignite-UX,
which offer more flexibility than fbackup and frecover, including the
ability to recover non-bootable systems.
The Ignite-UX server software for HP-UX 11i is provided on the HP-UX
11i OE CD1 or DVD1, and can be either cold-installed along with HP-UX
11i to create a new server or specified in the update-ux command to
update an existing Ignite-UX server to HP-UX 11i. See Chapter 2 for

Before you update your system, we recommend that you take the
following actions:
Record Software Versions
To identify what software still needs updating after the OS update, print
a swlist listing of all products and bundles prior to the update. For
example, enter:
/usr/sbin/swlist | lp
Then compare it with a similar swlist executed after the update.
Rebuild Kernel
Your update could fail if the HP-UX kernel build fails in the starting
environment. To ensure that you have a reliable starting point, rebuild
the kernel before you update:
1. As root, enter:
/usr/sbin/mk_kernel
2. Fix any problems listed in the mk_kernel output.
3. Reboot your system to ensure that your new kernel boots.

place. You may need them later to install drivers or to install or change
the OE.
If you specified Ask at first boot during the installation screens, the
set_parms command runs now so you can set the root password, date,
time, time zone, IP address, and other network parameters. You may
need to customize NFS mounts, gateways, file systems, and so forth after
you log in. Changes to the kernel, such as adding devices, will require a
reboot to enable them.
Step 13. The depot named GOLDQPK11i includes two quality pack bundles,
GOLDAPPS11i, which updates OE applications, and GOLDBASE11i, which
updates the Base OE (including the always-installed and selectable
driver products).
After installing or updating applications, insert the HP-UX Support Plus
CD and install the Quality Pack patch bundles to update the Base OE
and OE applications on your system. For example:
/usr/sbin/swinstall -s /cdrom/GOLDQPK11i \
-x patch_match_target=true -x autoreboot=true
For more about this package, see the Quality Pack page available at the
following web site:

Updating Tips
Before You Begin
Your Update:
Rebuild Kernel
Your update could fail if the HP-UX kernel build fails in the starting
environment. To ensure that you have a reliable starting point, rebuild
the kernel before you update:
1. As root, enter:
/usr/sbin/mk_kernel
2. Fix any problems listed in the mk_kernel output.
3. Reboot your system to ensure that your new kernel boots.
During The
Update:
106
Chapter 6
Configuring OE Applications
After updating to an HP-UX 11i operating environment (OE), some OE
products will need post-installation configuration to make them
functional. This may be indicated by a message logged in
/var/adm/sw/swagent.log. Refer to each products installation
instructions for details. Location of OE product documentation is listed
in the tables at the back of the Read Before Installing or Updating to
HP-UX 11i booklet and in the HP-UX 11i March 2003 Release Notes
(available on the Instant Information CD and http://docs.hp.com).
All Software Does Not Get Updated
The update-ux command updates the HP-UX OS and any software
specified in additional software bundles available on the source media or
depot. When an OE is specified, some products in the OE such as HP
Apache-based Web Server, will not automatically get updated if a version
of the product not previously installed with an OE already exists on the
system. Youll have to update or re-install those products after updating
11i. For more information about how to update these additional software
bundles, please see Update Selectable Software on page 120.
Chapter 6
107
108
Chapter 6
IMPORTANT
Step 4: Verify the Update on page 120: Shows you how to verify the
update once update-ux has finished.
TCOE Customers: With the December 2002 release of HP-UX 11i, MLIB
was temporarily removed from the TCOE OE media. A supplemental
MLIB CD-ROM has been provided for you to install MLIB after you have
completed updating your system.
In Case of Trouble
The update-ux command returns an error value when it is not
successful:
1 - Error during execution; update aborted.
2 - Update aborted via user action (-n or keyboard press).
Chapter 6
109
NOTE
If you are now attempting to update your system from a network depot,
start with Step 1: Install the update-ux Command (Required Task!) on
page 111
As root, follow this procedure to create a network depot from the HP-UX
11i CDs or DVD onto a depot server or other system running HP-UX 11i
in your network:
Step 1. Verify that you have at least 1,230 MB of free space to create the network
depot on another system in your network. If this space is not available,
use sam to either create a new volume group or extend an existing
volume group. For help, see either SAM help or the Managing Systems
and Workgroups manual.
Step 2. Log in as root and mount the logical volume on a new directory named
/update. This directory will hold your network depot.
Step 3. Insert the HP-UX 11i CD1 or DVD1 and wait for the drives busy light to
stop blinking.
Step 4. Find the CD-ROM or DVD-ROM device file name:
ioscan -f -C disk | more
/dev/dsk/c1t2d0 is a typical CD-ROM device name.
110
Chapter 6
111
From a depot:
swinstall -r -s depot_server:/var/depots/my_depot \
Update-UX \@ /var/adm/sw/update-ux.root 2> /dev/null
TIP
The \ at the end of the first line is not needed if you enter the complete
command on one line.
The -r option writes log files to the specified alternate root (pseudo-root)
location, update-ux.root (Do not specify any other alternate root
location). Since the HP-UX 11i Software Distributor tool contains many
keywords that 10.20 and 11.00 SD do not recognize, installing
update-ux initially at this alternate root location eliminates many
unnecessary update-ux warnings.
112
Chapter 6
NOTE
Chapter 6
113
Update to HP-UX 11i OS (OE Installed) on page 115 shows you how
to update to HP-UX 11i with an operating environment
114
Chapter 6
For example, to update to 11i and install the default 11i OE, insert an
HP-UX 11i CD1 or DVD1 in the local drive mounted at /cdrom or
/dvdrom. As root, enter:
CD: /usr/sbin/update-ux -s /cdrom HPUX11i-OE
DVD: /usr/sbin/update-ux -s /dvdrom HPUX11i-OE
Alternately, if you wanted to update to HP-UX 11i and include the
Enterprise OE, you would enter:
CD: /usr/sbin/update-ux -s /cdrom HPUX11i-OE-Ent
DVD: /usr/sbin/update-ux -s /dvdrom HPUX11i-OE-Ent
NOTE
We recommend that you install all of the selectable OE bundles that you
want (such as Ignite-UX, IPFilter/9000, and the selectable network
drivers) at the same time that you do your update. See Update
Selectable Software on page 120 for more information
For details on what is included in each of the Operating Environments,
see Chapter 4 of the HP-UX 11i March 2003 Release Notes or the HP-UX
11i OE Contents section of the Read Before Installing or Updating to
HP-UX 11i media booklet. These books can be found on the HP
documentation web site: http://docs.hp.com/hpux/os/11i/
Chapter 6
115
NOTE
If you do not specify an OE bundle update-ux will only the install the
OS, networking, diagnostic and CDE bundles listed on page 70. Any
additional software bundles associated with an OE are not installed.
For example, to update the HP-UX 11i OS, insert HP-UX 11i CD1 or
DVD1 in the local mounted drive and enter the following command:
Adding or Upgrading an OE
To install an OE on an 11i system not containing an OE, or to upgrade
11i to higher-level OE (for example, HP-UX 11i OE to Enterprise OE)
insert the HP-UX 11i media in the CD or DVD drive and specify the new
OE using update-ux. For example, to add the default HP-UX 11i OE,
enter:
If you are using CDs, update-ux will prompt you to replace 11i OE CD1
with 11i OE CD2, then complete the update. Similarly, if you did not
initially install or upgrade a workstation with the Minimal Technical OE
or Technical Computing OE, you can add that bundle using update-ux
from the Technical Computing OE media. For example, to install the
no-cost MTOE, enter:
When the update is complete, the original OE bundle wrapper (if one
existed) will be removed and replaced with the new bundle wrapper.

For a cold-install, compare your listing with the list of software products
provided with 11i, as listed in the tables in the Read Before Installing or
Updating to HP-UX 11i booklet.
For an update, compare your listing with the swlist output obtained
before the update. Software products whose versions have not changed
have not been updated. Use the swverify command to determine
whether those products are compatible with HP-UX 11i.
Step 2. Run swverify to verify that each bundle is intact. For example, to verify
that HP-UX 11i OS is intact, enter:
/usr/sbin/swverify HPUXBase64
Or, to verify all software on your system, enter:
/usr/sbin/swverify \*
The Selection process locates all required filesets for the product. After
the list you should see:
124
Chapter 7
Then the Analysis process verifies that each required file is loaded
(existence and version), all required dependencies are met, and runs any
available verification scripts for the product. This will take some time.
After the analysis you should see:
* Analysis succeeded.

125
The indicated software (xyz) has not been updated to 11i. To update the
software, mount the HP-UX 11i Applications CD that contains the
software and install the new version using the swinstall command. For
more details on using swinstall, see Chapter 8.
The best way to verify each applications operation is to exercise it. Open
each application, view a working document or project, and perform
typical production operations (edit a file, print a report, etc.). If the
application does not work as expected, refer to the applications help or
documentation to determine the problem.

Many of the HP-UX 11i firmware patches rely on HP-UX 11i tools and
system calls. During the cold-install or update process, your system is
still running either the 10.20 or 11.0 kernel. The firmware installation
fails because of system call differences between the HP-UX 11i kernel
and older kernel versions.

What To Do
The swinstall analysis on software from HP-UX 11i CD1 failed and
update-ux quit. Correct the indicated problem and run the command
again.
The indicated software (xyz) has not been updated to 11i. To update the
software, mount the HP-UX 11i Applications CD that contains the
software and install the new version using the swinstall command. For
more details, see Chapter 8.
This error indicates that other processes have locked the root volume,
preventing update-ux from completing a successful update.

You are using a version of diagnostics earlier than February 1999 (an
STM version lower than A.14.00). To check your version, enter:
/usr/sbin/cstm
The STM version is displayed in the start-up messages. Exit by
entering: quit
AND:
To achieve the same results as with the obsolete monitors, use the EMS
Hardware Monitors on the updated system. See the EMS Hardware
Monitors User's Guide available at:
http://docs.hp.com/hpux/diag/
NOTE
Appendix B
177
A fix for the problem will be made available in the earliest follow-up
patch release for 11i. In the meantime, if you depend on the SCR, you
should either not update to 11i, or remove the floppy drive.
NOTE
If /dev/floppy exists, hpuxci sets default attributes for the device. The
code that does this does not null-terminate the string passed to atoi()
which results in a segfault (segmentation fault). The fix for this will
terminate the string correctly.
To fix this problem install patch PHNE_25833 (or any patch that
supersedes it).

In this example, you would need to increase the file system size of /var
by 10 MB, which actually needs to be rounded up to 12 MB.
Increasing /var
Follow these steps to increase the size limit of /var:
Step 1. Determine if any space is available for the /dev/vg00:
/sbin/vgdisplay /dev/vg00
You should see output like this:
- Volume groups VG Name
/dev/vg00
VG Write Access

The "Free PE" indicates the number of 4MB extents available, in this
case 79 (equivalent to 316 MB).
Step 2. Change to single user state:
/sbin/shutdown
This will allow /var to be unmounted.
Step 3. View mounted volumes:
/sbin/mount
You will see a display similar to the following:
/ on /dev/vg00/lvol1 defaults on Sat Mar 8 23:19:19 1997
/var on /dev/vg00/lvol7 defaults on Sat Mar 8 23:19:28 1997
Appendix B
183
Increasing /stand
In some cases, you will need to increase the size of /stand prior to
completing a successful update to HP-UX 11i. If the update-ux
command fails with a message indicating that /stand is too small, follow
these steps to increase the size of /stand.
To increase /stand, youll first have to create a larger /swap volume,
since both require contiguous blocks and are adjacent volumes. If you
need help with this procedure, refer to the Managing Systems and
Workgroups manual, available on the HP-UX 11i Instant Information CD
and on HPs documentation web site:
http://docs.hp.com/hpux/os/11i/oe/
Step 1. As root, use sam to create a new contiguous /swap volume of the required
size, say, 300 MB. Name the new volume /dev/vg00/swap.
Step 2. Using sam, verify that there is no bad block relocation and the new
/swap volume is contiguous.
Step 3. As root from a console window, remove and add primary swap and dump
devices:
1. Remove the current dump device:
lvrmboot -v -d lvol2 /dev/vg00
2. Add a new dump device:
lvlnboot -d /dev/vg00/swap
3. Remove the current swap device:

Step 7. To verify that the same configuration exists as before the reboot, enter
(again):
lvlnboot -v
Step 8. As root, use sam to remove the old lvol2 entry from /dev/vg00.
Step 9. Using sam, increase /stand to the required new size. Also change the
size of any other volumes as needed.
Step 10. Define your new volume as the boot volume at the next reboot:
lvlnboot -b lvol1 /dev/vg00
Step 11. Reboot your system again.
Return to Chapter 2 to update your system to HP-UX 11i using the
update-ux command.
Appendix B
185
The boot may fail in other ways. For example, you may have to repair the
file system manually:
186
Appendix B
If your applications and data are on a separate disk from the OS,
cold-install the previous OS over 11i. This ensures a clean OS
installation, removing all previous upgrade and patch information.
If applications and/or data are on the same volume with the OS, boot
from the previously-saved system recovery tape to return to a
previous OS. These "expert recovery" processes are in Chapter 11 of
the Ignite-UX Administration Guide.
To determine what applications are on the system and where they are
located, use swlist. If you only need to remove applications or patches
from the system, use swremove. See the Software Distributor Administration Guide for details.
Appendix B
187
Re-installing SD
If your system needs re-updating and/or you find that Software
Distributor (SD) needs updating, you can re-install SD.
To update SD, you must first load the install-sd utility onto your
system, then use install-sd to get the new version of SD.
Step 1. The install-sd utility is in the catalog/SW-DIST/pfiles directory on
the HP-UX 11i OE CD1. If install-sd is not in /var/tmp, load it. For
example, to load install-sd from a local CD mounted at /cdrom, enter:
cp /cdrom/catalog/SW-DIST/pfiles/install-sd /var/tmp
The install-sd command uses the /var/tmp directory by default and
needs at least 2MB of free space.
Step 2. Copy the swagent.Z file from the CD-ROM:
cp /cdrom/catalog/SW-DIST/pfiles/swagent.Z /var/tmp
Step 3. Make install-sd executable:
chmod +x
/var/tmp/install-sd
Step 4. Run install-sd to install the SW-DIST product onto your system:
/var/tmp/install-sd -s /sd_cdrom
For more about the install-sd command, see Appendix C of the
Software Distributor Administration Guide, available on the Instant
Information CD and on this web page:

Overview
The update-ux command updates your system in this order:
1. Performs preparation steps including checking the root volume (see
About update-ux on page 195).
2. Calls swinstall to install software bundles from CD1. swinstall
does its Selection and Analysis processes on the software loaded from
the CD, then replaces the existing OS with 11i OS bundles and
default network drivers.
3. Prompts you after about an hour to replace CD1 with CD2 then calls
swinstall again to load any remaining software that you specified
in the update-ux command.
4. Reboots the system after all software has been loaded. These OS and
network driver bundles are loaded by default:
HPUXBase32 or HPUXBase64
HPUXBaseAux
HWEnable11i
BUNDLE11i
FibrChanl-00 (64-bit OS only)
GigEther-00

Appendix C
About update-ux
The update-ux command improves the usability and robustness of the
update process by eliminating many of the manual steps required by
swgettools in previous HP-UX updates. In addition to ensuring a safe
environment on the target system for the OS update, update-ux
performs these update preparation steps before initiating the update:
Appendix C
195
update-ux Syntax
update-ux -s source_location [-?] [-a 32|64] [-n|-y] [-i]
[-x option=value] [sw_spec]
where:
-s source_location Specifies the source containing the new software
depot. Possible locations are a local directory, a
mounted CD containing a depot, or a remote
system-and-depot combination. All paths used in the
source_location must be absolute paths. If
source_location is a remote system/depot
combination, the remote system should be specified
first, followed by the absolute path to the remote depot,
separated by a colon with no spaces; for example:
swperf:/var/spool/sw
-?
-a 32|64
-n | -y
-i

An alternative way to configure the jumbo frame size is to edit the file
/etc/rc.config.d/hpgelanconf (or
/etc/rc.config.d/hpigelanconf). Set the parameter
HP_GELAN/IGELAN_MTU[0]=9000 and insert the proper
HP_GELAN/IGELAN_INTERFACE_NAME. When the system reboots,
the interface will be configured for jumbo frame operation.

Only the PCI 100Base-TX card supports both full and half-duplex
modes. If your hub or switch does not support autonegotiation,
ensure that your hub or switch is set to the desired duplex mode.
The built-in PCI card for workstations has a nettl subsys_id of 173.
The built-in workstation card also uses a dynamic major number.
202
Appendix D
NOTE
For 100 Base-FX (fiber), attach the fiber optic cable to the duplex SC
connector. Cabling can be either 62.5 or 125 micron multimode fiber
optic cable. The operating distances for fiber optic cable for V-Class
systems are:
c.
Attach the free end of the cable to any unused port on the
appropriate hub or switch (or into a wall jack that is connected to a
hub or switch). Connect power cable to system. Set the hub or switch
speed and duplex mode. The PCI 10/100Base-TX card operates in
either full-duplex or half-duplex mode. The Base-TX card
autonegotiates; the fiber card does not. If using the 100Base-FX card,
set the duplex mode manually to half-duplex.
d. Power up the system. When the system is up, any error messages
will appear on the terminal display or system console. You can also
use the dmesg command to retrieve start-up messages later.

NOTE
The PCI 10/100Base-TX card will sense when the connection between
itself and a hub or switch on the other end of a link has been broken. If a
connection is made to another (or the same) device, the autosensing
process will be done again automatically. Autosensing is also done
whenever the interface is reset.

Appendix D
The Activity LED flashes whenever the switch is sending link pulses. If
the activity LED on the card is not blinking, then there may be a problem
with the driver or the card. Contact HP.
NOTE
The RJ-45 connection operates at either 10 or 100 Mbits/s, but the BNC
and AUI connections operate only at 10 Mbits/s.
