Usage and Config Platform

We are deploying Bigfix agent to HP-UX for the first time. I found a download for the client HP-UX 11.00/111/11.23 We are running 11.31. Will the agent be compatible?

Thanks,

Chris

Here is the official policy:

I think we don’t yet support HPUX 11.31… I will check in on the status of that platform…

Hi Chris,

We will be adding support for 11.31 in our 8.0 platform.

OK. I think my HP-UX admin got it working to a certain extent. However, it’s not connecting to the Bigfix server. Is there a log I can view to see what the problem might be? If anyone is sure it won’t work at all, then we will stop trying. One more question, when we purchased the license we didn’t get any for HP-UX so I am attempting to use an evaluation license while we work on getting the production ones for this platform. Will that cause a problem?

I do not see an entry in the /etc/services file for port 52311./

I stand corrected. We do have production licensing for Unix/Linux. I’ll review the instructions again.
