• 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 chosen 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?

Exit the console and management processor interfaces if you are finished using them.
