Update Path Notes
• If you are planning to update to a higher level server operating
environment from a current HP-UX 11i v1.6 server operating
environment (for example, HP-UX 11i v1.6 Foundation OE (base OE)
to HP-UX 11i v2 Enterprise OE, you must proceed using the
following steps:
1. Update to HP-UX 11i v2 Foundation OE
2. Update to the desired premium OE (in this case, the Enterprise
OE)
• You cannot downgrade to a lower level operating environment (for
example from Enterprise OE (EOE) to Foundation OE (FOE), or
Technical Computing Operating Environment (TCOE) to Minimum
Technical Operating Environment (MTOE)
• You cannot update between server operating environments (FOE,
EOE, and MCOE) and technical operating environments (MTOE,
and TCOE)
