Perform the steps in this section only if you are planning
to Distribute a Staging Area to a Remote system. If you are performing a Manage Patch by Staging Area for a
Local system, skip this section and proceed to "5.10 Setting
a Staging Area." To install a distributed staging area on a remote system: Log
onto the remote system console (if you are not already
logged on) and start the spooler and streams device. :HELLO MANAGER.SYS,INSTALL;HIPRI :LIMIT 1,1 :SPOOLERLP;START :STREAMSstreams_device
|
A common streams_device
value is 10. Ignore the group out of connect time
warning, if it displays. Physically transport the staging area file(s). If you used a TAPE option,
ship the tape to the remote location. If you use the UNPACK or
NOUNPACK option, use whatever electronic
mechanism is appropriate for you, for example FTP to transport the
staging area file(s) to the remote location.  |  |  |  |  | NOTE: The file or files related to the staging area must
be placed in the /SYS/hpstage/import
directory. |  |  |  |  |
Start HP Stage/iX. Prepare the staging area, execute the IMPORT
command. STAGEMAN>IMPORT sa_name;option
|
where: sa_name-the
name of the staging area to be distributed. option-matches
the option used to export the staging
area. The default for EXPORT is
NOPACK. The IMPORT
options are: TAPE—For
the tape option, reply to the tape request. UNPACK—For
the pack option, specify the staging area name. NOUNPACK-The distributed
staging area is created on the remote system.
Validate the new staging area. STAGEMAN>VALIDATE sa_name

Staging Area completed. Go to the next section on your checklist.
