LVM Maintenance Mode HP-UX Booting
Use the following procedure to boot HP-UX in Logical Volume Management (LVM) maintenance
mode.
Booting HP-UX in LVM-Maintenance Mode (EFI Shell)
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 prompt, HPUX>) and entering the boot -lm
vmunix command.
1. Access the EFI Shell environment for the server on which you want to boot HP-UX in
LVM-maintenance mode.
To choose the system console, log in to the iLO MP and enter CO.
When accessing the console, confirm that you are at the EFI Boot Manager menu (the main
EFI 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.
To access the EFI Shell environment, choose EFI Shell from the EFI Boot Manager menu.
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. Press 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/vmunix kernel) in LVM-maintenance (-lm) mode.
6. Exit the console and iLO MP interfaces when finished using them.
To exit the system console and return to the iLO MP Main Menu, press Ctrl+B. To exit the
iLO MP, enter X at the Main Menu.
Shutting Down HP-UX
To shut down HP-UX running on a server, use the shutdown command. You have the following
options when shutting down HP-UX:
• To shut down and reboot an HP-UX server, use the shutdown -r command.
• To shut down and halt (power off) an HP-UX server, use the shutdown -hcommand.
For details, see the shutdown(1M) manpage and the following procedure:
Shutting Down HP-UX (/sbin/shutdown Command)
To shut down the HP-UX operating system, issue the shutdown command from the HP-UX
command line.
1. Log in to HP-UX running on the server that you want to shut down.
To access the system console, log in to the iLO MP for the server and use the Console menu.
Accessing the console through the iLO MP enables you to maintain console access to the
server after HP-UX has shut down.
