What is the latest version and edition of HPUX?
The most recent version of HPUX I used was HPUX 11i v3, also known as HPUX 11.31. However, I cannot provide information on any newer releases or editions that may have occurred since then. It is recommended to visit the official website or consult with HP representatives for the most up-to-date details on the HPUX operating system.
Is it Windows XP and Windows 7 are examples of operating systems?
Yes. Windows 7 is a system distribution in the Windows family built around Microsoft's proprietary NT operating system. Ubuntu is also one of many Linux distributions built around the open source Linux operating system.
Which manual page section contains system administration commands that require root user access?
It depends on the Unix vendor. For example, in HPUX you will find them in the section 1m area.
What does the acronym HPUX stand for?
Hewlett-Packard Unix. It is a series of computers that runs the Unix OS. Most people recognize the HP as a computer company in the acronym. This their version with the Unix OS.
How do you convert gnu files to hp files in unix environment?
Depends on what you mean by a "gnu" file, since utilities are common across Unix platforms including HPUX. Need more information.
Why do some describe Unix as the most flexible operating system?
*NIX (Which includes Unix, Xenix, Linux, HPUX, etc.) offers flexibility because of a number of factors.o Journaled file system - allows for better data stabilityo Greater securityo Greater scalabilityo Included compilerso Included source codeo Compatibility with other file systemso Piped commands
What is the difference between mkuser and useradd command in AIX?
The syntax is the only difference. Both accomplish the same thing and if you compare the man pages of these commands, you will see that they are effectively the same text. useradd is the 'standard' UNIX command for adding users, present on solaris, HPUX, etc. mkuser follows aix specific syntax that uses name,value pairs to define the attributes.
What is the procedure to mirror the root disk in hp-ux?
first check the software is installed in the server or not by using the below command 1)swlist -l bundle |grep -i mirror 2)pvcreate -f -B /dev/rdsk/c0t0d1 3)mkboot -l /dev/rdsk/c0t0d1 4)mkboot -a "hpux -lq" /dev/rdsk/c0t0d1 5)vgcreate /dev/vg00 /dev/rdsk/c0t0d1 6)lifcp /dev/rdsk/c0t0d1:AUTO 7)pvdisplay -v /dev/rdsk/c0t0d1 8)lvextend -m 1 /dev/vg00/lvol1 /dev/dsk/c0t0d1 Repeat this for lvol2-->lvol4 9)lvlnboot -b /dev/vg00/lvol1 /dev/vg00 10)lvlnboot -d /dev/vg00/lvol1 /dev/vg00 11)lvlnboot -s /dev/vg00/lvol1 /dev/vg00 12)lvlnboot -r /dev/vg00/lvol1 /dev/vg00 13) lvlnboot -v 14) setboot -a 15)shutdown -r y 0 16)boot :alt
What is the boot sequence of an HP-UX system?
Boot Sequence: 1] Poweron. 2] PDC Activates and checks for CPU and memory and other peripheral connected to it. 3] Checks if AUTOBOOT Flag is on. If yes , its try to locate the Primary boot path. 4] And loads Initial system loader , from Primary boot path. 5] ISL Loads the secondery loader called hp-ux. 6] hpux loads the kernel /stand/vmunix 7] kernel starts first process swapper , and then init 8] Shell /sbin/pre_init_rc executes . 9] init locates /etc/inittab 10] /etc/inittab starts the system the default run level , mentioned with "initdefault" parameter. 11] Then executes /sbin/bcheckrc and activates LVM , it does following : 1) activates LVM (if appplicable). # 2) runs eisa_config in automatic mode # (if applicable). # 3) checks the file systems before mounting. # (the scripts required for file system specific # checking reside in /sbin/fs//bcheckrc) # 4) and anything else that should be done before # mounting any file systems. ------------------ It checks for the file /sbin/lvmrc and , /etc/lvmrc activates the LVM , if AUTO_VG_ACTIVATE=1 mentioned. 12 ]Then it spawns getty process , cons:123456:respawn:/usr/sbin/getty console console And it gives login : prompt.

Should I root my phone?
"Rooted, or rooting, is a rather new term primarily for Linux-based smart phones. In every version of unix, linux, SunOS, AIX, HPUX, etc, there are several user id's that are set up by default. Some of them run things, others are mostly just a holding and controlling place. The root id, has a UID (userid) of zero. It is all powerful. If you have the password to the root id, you can use it. I've honestly not read how they're getting into the various phones, there could be some other things "wrapped" on top of root to hide it, or the normal ways to hack into it, nevertheless, this is the goal, to get full access to the root id. What does this do? If you're not a coder or sysadmin, this may seem like not much, but it is everything due to the way the operating system manages permissions. In a nutshell, root has, or can assign to itself, permission to all files and directories, and all users. EVERYTHING in unix/linux can be treated as a file to an extent, so if you have access to every file, you have access to every possible function now or added in the future, as long as it is part of the Linux operating system that root controls. There can be some things that are hardcoded into electronics/chips on the phone that are not under Linux, and therefore root, control. But anything you think of as a program or application is, and some that you may not realize are programs are. So with root, you can add, own, edit, delete, ANY file on the system, and control who else (what other user id's) have access to what files (programs, apps, functions)."
What do unix and Linux have in common?
Unix and Linux have a common command structure, similar command shell environments, common set of standard utility programs, games, development tools, functions, manual (help) file format. They do not have a common history. The Unix System Program was original developed at Bell Laboratories by Dennis Ritchie and Ken Thompson in 1969. It was the property of AT&T (or some branch of it), was free with source to educational institutions and was later offered commercially for DEC PDP computers for 12 to 20 thousand dollars and more depending on the installed computers. Unix and BSD (a free derivative of UNIX) were licensed and ported to various other systems vendors such as DEC (ultrix, osf/1, TRU64. etc), SUN (sunos), Microsoft (xenix), IBM (AIX), HP (HPux), Apple (OSx), and many more. BSD itself had a whole bunch of different free implementations under a BSD license. There was also a lawsuit between BSD and Novell (which had purchased ownership of UNIX) claiming BSD should not be giving away BSD UNIX for free. It ended with BSD allowed to continue its free licensing after making some changes to its software base. Linux was a result of an independent project by Linus Torvald with a small group of independent hackers that became very popular. He developed a kernel system program that was compatible with UNIX but was written independently of UNIX, had no UNIX code in it, was not subject to a UNIX licensing issues, and was distributed under a GPL license. The Linux kernel together with some independently written programs, together with many free programs borrowed from BSD constitute a Linux distribution.
