How To Set Up An Ignite Server

To set up an Ignite server, the document outlines the following steps: 1. Install the HP-UX installation utilities (Ignite-UX) if not already installed and check that the fileset is present. 2. Run scripts to set up the Ignite server's default values and enable TFTP and bootpd services. 3. Configure the ignite parameters to make the server a boot helper pointing to the "real" Ignite-UX server. 4. On the ignite server, create an archive directory for the client, set ownership/permissions, and export it so the client can access it. 5. Add the ignite client to the server's /etc/hosts file
