How to patch a HP-UX box which is mirrored?




1)you should take reboot of the server.

2) You should run swverify to see all other patch status.

3)now you have to break the mirror  do lvsplit

why? because if anything goes wrong the mirror is also gets affected.

4) run fsck on lvolb and mount it

5) now install the patch, after that check the log files if it is ok or not.

6) boot from the mirror oncec back we have to merge it.

7) use lvmerge to get the mirror back.

that's it done
