HP-UX Virtual Partitions Administrator's Guide (includes A.03.05 and A.04.05)

Choosing the Boot and Lan Paths
Using the full ioscan output, we chose the following boot disk path and note the LAN card
path:

Autoboot
Autoboot allows a virtual partition to be booted automatically on a cold boot of the system. By
default, autoboot is set to AUTO for all virtual partitions.

For more information, see the vparmodify(1M) manpage.
NOTE: When using vparboot -I to install vPars, you need to leave the autoboot attribute
set to AUTO during the installation due to the reboots that occur during the installation. After
installation is complete, you can set the autoboot attribute to MANUAL using the vparmodify
command. For example, after installation is complete, to set the autoboot attribute to MANUAL
for the partition winona3:
# vparmodify -p winona3 -B manual
Virtual Partition Plan
Combining all parts above, the resultant partition plans are the following:
