Hi !
I must install from scratch HP-UX into a C8000.

I have another C8000 full working.

I'm planning to clone the disks, since I did a lot of post configuration in the
working C8000.

They are almost identical, same PCI cards, same graphics adapter.

The only difference is that the workinq one is a dual CPU (1GHz), while the
other has a single CPU 900MHz.

There's some drawback ?

There's another approach, beside the "brute force" one?
The working C8000 has two 73GB disks, and a lot of free space...

You should look into what Ignite/UX can do wrt things like golden
images, and the like.
