From the EFI Shell environment, boot in LVM-maintenance mode by stopping the boot process at
the HPUX.EFI interface (the HP-UX Boot Loader HPUX> prompt), and entering the boot -lm
vmunix command.

LVM-maintenance mode.
Log in to the iLO 2 MP and enter CO to choose the system console.
When accessing the console, confirm that you are at the EFI Boot Manager Menu. If you are
at another EFI menu, choose Exit from the submenus until you return to the screen with the
EFI Boot Manager heading.
From the EFI Boot Manager menu, choose EFI Shell to access the EFI Shell environment.
2. Access the EFI System Partition (fsX: where X is the file system number) for the device from
which you want to boot HP-UX.
3. When accessing the EFI System Partition for the desired boot device, issue the HPUX command
to initiate the \EFI\HPUX\HPUX.EFI loader on the device you are accessing.
4. Type any key within the 10 seconds given for interrupting the HP-UX boot process. This stops
the boot process at the HPUX.EFI interface (the HP-UX Boot Loader prompt, HPUX>).
5. At the HPUX.EFI interface, enter the boot -lm vmunix command to boot HP-UX (the
/stand/vmunixkernel) in LVM-maintenance (-lm) mode.
