Booting HP-UX
This section covers the following methods of booting HP-UX:
HP-UX Booting — The standard ways to boot HP-UX. Typically this results in booting HP-UX in
multi-user mode.
Single-User Mode HP-UX Booting — How to boot HP-UX in single-user mode.
LVM-Maintenance Mode HP-UX Booting — How to boot HP-UX in LVM-maintenance mode.
See “Shutting Down HP-UX” on page 193 for details on shutting down the HP-UX operating system.
CAUTION
ACPI Configuration for HP-UX Must Be “default”
On nPartition-capable HP Integrity servers, to boot the HP-UX operating system an nPartition
must have its ACPI configuration value set to
default
.
At the EFI Shell interface, enter the
acpiconfig
command with no arguments to list the
current ACPI configuration. 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.
