HP-UX Virtual Partitions Administrator Guide (includes A.05.07) (5900-1229, September 2010)

d. Once the PRI path has been successfully changed, set the mode to back to vPars.
• On Integrity:
keira# vparenv -m vPars
• On PA-RISC, no mode setting is required.
e. Reboot the nPartition.
keira# shutdown -ry 0
9. If needed (depending upon how your nPartition’s autoboot configuration is set up), interrupt
the nPartition boot process and load the vPars Monitor.
Example for PA-RISC:
BCH> bo pri
interact with IPL: y
ISL> hpux /stand/vpmon
Example for Integrity:
Shell> fs0:
fs0:\> hpux
HPUX> boot vpmon
10. Boot the virtual partitions.
Example:
MON> vparload -all
When the virtual partitions are booted, they will continue and complete their update processes
(the virtual partitions can be booed in any order). After this is completed, you should arrive
at the login: prompt for each virtual partition. Login as root and continue to the next step.
11. Turn autoboot and autosearch settings back to their original settings that you recorded
earlier above.
Example:
keira1 # vparmodify -p keira1 -B auto
keira1 # vparmodify -p keira1 -B nosearch
keira1 # vparmodify -p keira2 -B manual
keira1 # vparmodify -p keira2 -B nosearch
keira1 # vparmodify -p keira3 -B auto
keira1 # vparmodify -p keira3 -B nosearch
12. Verify the Virtual Partitions.
The virtual partitions should now be running the latest vPars version. To verify this, you
can login to each virtual partition and use the vparstatus command with the -P option:
Example:
keira1# vparstatus -P
Current Virtual Partition Version: A.05.01
Monitor Version: A.05.01
[Virtual Partition OS Version]
Virtual Partition Name OS Version State
============================ ========== =====
keira1 B.11.31 Up
keira2 B.11.23 Up
keira2# vparstatus -P
Commands product information: A.04.03
Monitor product information: A.05.01
13. Verification the vPars Monitor.
If you changed the nPartition’s PRI boot path, you can also verify that the vPars Monitor
has been booted from the correct boot disk:
