I'm worried about byte order of the data.
The simple question is:
Generally, can I create a tape under PArisc HP-UX 10.20 (or 11.00 or 11.11)
and then restore it correctly on an Itanium box running HP-UX 11.22.
Will 'tar', 'cpio', 'fbackup' be compatible in this scenario?
More specifically,
We have the Itanium Ignite depots for HP-UX 11.22 (along with the PArisc
depots for 10.20, 11.00, 11.11) on 2 PArisc boxes (running 10.20, as
mandated by HP manufacturing). I can create a 'swinstall' tape from those
11.22 depots using 'swpackage'. However, my worry is byte-order on the
tape created by 'swpackage' running under HP-UX for PArisc (10.20).
Since we don't have an IPF box, I can't be sure that the tape created under
PArisc HP-UX will actually work under IPF HP-UX. I'm guessing that it will
work, since the Ignite process/depots should be able to ignite an Itanium
box.
