This section covers the following methods of booting HP-UX: See “Shutting Down HP-UX” for
details on shutting down the HP-UX operating system. HP-UX Booting | |
You can boot HP-UX by using any one of the following procedures: Procedure A-1 HP-UX Booting [BCH Menu] From the BCH Menu, use the BOOT command to boot the HP-UX operating system. The BCH Menu is
available only on HP 9000 servers. Access the BCH Main Menu for the nPartition on which
you want to boot HP-UX. Login to the service processor (MP or GSP) and enter CO to access the Console list. Select the nPartition console.
When accessing the console, confirm that you are at the BCH Main
Menu (the Main Menu: Enter command or menu> prompt). If at a BCH menu other than the Main
Menu, then enter MA to return to the BCH Main Menu. Choose which device you wish
to boot. From the BCH Main menu, use the PATH command to list any boot path variable settings. The primary
(PRI) boot path normally is set to the main boot device for the
nPartition. You also can use the SEARCH command to find and list potentially bootable devices
for the nPartition. Main Menu: Enter command or menu > PATH
Primary Boot Path: 0/0/2/0/0.13
0/0/2/0/0.d (hex)
HA Alternate Boot Path: 0/0/2/0/0.14
0/0/2/0/0.e (hex)
Alternate Boot Path: 0/0/2/0/0.0
0/0/2/0/0.0 (hex)
Main Menu: Enter command or menu > |
Boot the device using the
BOOT command from the BCH interface. You can issue the BOOT command in any of the following ways: BOOT Issuing the BOOT command with no arguments boots the device at the primary
(PRI) boot path. BOOT bootvariable This command boots the device indicated by the specified boot
path, where bootvariable is the PRI, HAA, or ALT boot path. For example, BOOT PRI boots the primary boot path. BOOT LAN INSTALL or BOOT LAN.ip-address INSTALL The BOOT... INSTALL commands boot HP-UX from the default HP-UX install server
or from the server specified by ip-address. BOOT path This command boots the device at the specified path. You can specify the path in HP-UX hardware path notation (for example,
0/0/2/0/0.13) or in “path label” format (for example,
P0 or P1) . If you specify the path in “path label” format then path refers to a device path reported by the last SEARCH command.
After you issue the BOOT command, the BCH interface prompts you to specify whether
you want to stop at the ISL prompt. To boot the /stand/vmunix HP-UX kernel from the device without
stopping at the ISL prompt, enter n to automatically proceed past ISL and execute the contents
of the AUTO file on the selected device. (By default the AUTO file
is configured to load /stand/vmunix.) Main Menu: Enter command or menu > BOOT PRI
Primary Boot Path: 0/0/1/0/0.15
Do you wish to stop at the ISL prompt prior to booting? (y/n) >> n
ISL booting hpux
Boot
: disk(0/0/1/0/0.15.0.0.0.0.0;0)/stand/vmunix |
To boot an HP-UX kernel other than /stand/vmunix, or to boot HP-UX in single-user or LVM-maintenance
mode, stop at the ISL prompt and specify the appropriate arguments
to the hpux loader. Exit the console and service processor interfaces if
finished using them. To exit the BCH environment type ^B (Control-B); this exits the nPartition console and returns to the
service processor Main Menu. To exit the service processor, type X at the Main Menu.
Procedure A-2 HP-UX Booting [EFI Boot Manager] From the EFI Boot Manager menu, select an item from the boot
options list to boot HP-UX using the selected boot option. The EFI
Boot Manager is available only on HP Integrity servers. See “ACPI Configuration for HP-UX Must Be “default”” for
required configuration details. Access the EFI Boot Manager menu for the nPartition
on which you want to boot HP-UX. Login to the service processor (MP or GSP) and enter CO to access the Console list. Select the nPartition console. When accessing the console, confirm that you are at the EFI
Boot Manager menu (the main EFI menu). If at another EFI menu, select
the Exit option from the sub-menus until you return to the screen
with the EFI Boot Manager heading. At the EFI Boot Manager menu, select an item from the
boot options list. Each item in the boot options list references a specific boot
device and provides a specific set of boot options or arguments
to be used when booting the device. Press Return or Enter to initiate booting using the selected boot option. Exit the console and service processor interfaces if
finished using them. To exit the EFI environment type ^B (Control-B); this exits the nPartition console and returns to the service
processor Main Menu. To exit the service processor, type X at the Main Menu.
Procedure A-3 HP-UX Booting [EFI Shell] From the EFI Shell environment, to boot HP-UX on a device
first access the EFI System Partition (for example fs0:) for the root device and then enter HPUX to invoke the loader. The EFI Shell is available only
on HP Integrity servers. See “ACPI Configuration for HP-UX Must Be “default”” for
required configuration details. Access the EFI Shell environment for the nPartition
on which you want to boot HP-UX. Login to the service processor (MP or GSP) and enter CO to access the Console list. Select the nPartition console. When accessing the console, confirm that you are at the EFI
Boot Manager menu (the main EFI menu). If at another EFI menu, select
the Exit option from the sub-menus until you return to the screen
with the EFI Boot Manager heading. From the EFI Boot Manager menu, select the EFI Shell menu option to access the EFI Shell environment. At the EFI Shell environment, issue the acpiconfig command to list the current ACPI configuration for the
local nPartition. On nPartition-capable HP Integrity servers, to boot the HP-UX
operating system an nPartition must have its ACPI configuration
value set to default. If the acpiconfig value is not set to default, then HP-UX cannot boot; in this situation you
must reconfigure acpiconfig or else booting will be interrupted with a panic
when launching the HP-UX kernel. To set the ACPI configuration for HP-UX: at the EFI Shell
interface enter the acpiconfig default command, and then enter the reset command for the nPartition to reboot with the proper (default) configuration for HP-UX. At the EFI Shell environment, issue the map command to list all currently mapped bootable devices. The bootable filesystems of interest typically are listed
as fs0:, fs1:, and so on. Access the EFI System Partition (fsX: where X is the filesystem number) for the device from which you
want to boot HP-UX. For example, enter fs2: to access the EFI System Partition for the bootable filesystem
number 2. Note that the EFI Shell prompt changes to reflect the
filesystem currently accessed. Also note that the filesystem number may change each time
it is mapped (for example, when the nPartition boots, or when the map -r command is issued). When accessing the EFI System Partition for the desired
boot device, issue the HPUX command to invoke the HPUX.EFI loader on the selected devive. The full path for the loader is \EFI\HPUX\HPUX.EFI and when invoked it references the \EFI\HPUX\AUTO file and proceeds to boot HP-UX using the default
boot behavior specified in the AUTO file. You are given ten seconds to interrupt the automatic booting
of the default boot behavior. Typing a key during this ten-second
period stops the HP-UX boot process and enables you to interact
with the HPUX.EFI loader. To exit the loader (the HPUX> prompt) type exit to return to the EFI Shell. To boot the HP-UX operating system, do not type anything during
the ten-second period given for stopping at the HPUX.EFI loader. Shell> map

Single-User Mode HP-UX Booting | |
You can boot HP-UX in single-user mode by using any one of
the following procedures: Procedure A-4 Single-User Mode HP-UX Booting [BCH Menu] From the BCH Menu, you can boot HP-UX in single-user mode
by issuing the BOOT command, stopping at the ISL interface, and issuing hpux loader options. The BCH Menu is available only on HP
9000 servers. Access the BCH Main Menu for the nPartition on which
you want to boot HP-UX in single-user mode. Login to the service processor (MP or GSP) and enter CO to access the Console list. Select the nPartition console.
When accessing the console, confirm that you are at the BCH Main
Menu (the Main Menu: Enter command or menu> prompt). If at a BCH menu other than the Main
Menu, then enter MA to return to the BCH Main Menu. Boot the desired device using
the BOOT command at the BCH interface, and specify that the nPartition
stop at the ISL prompt prior to booting (reply y to the “stop at the ISL prompt” question). Main Menu: Enter command or menu > BOOT 0/0/2/0/0.13

From the ISL prompt, issue the
appropriate Secondary System Loader (hpux) command to boot the HP-UX kernel in the desired mode. Use the hpux loader to specify the boot mode options and to specify
which kernel (such as: /stand/vmunix) to boot on the nPartition. To boot HP-UX in single-user mode: ISL> hpux -is boot /stand/vmunix To boot HP-UX at the default run level: ISL> hpux boot /stand/vmunix
To exit the ISL prompt and return to the BCH interface, issue
the EXIT command instead of specifying one of the above hpux loader commands. Refer to the hpux(1M) manpage for a detailed
list of hpux loader options. Example A-1 Example
