LVM-Maintenance Mode HP-UX Booting
You can boot HP-UX in LVM-maintenance mode by using the following procedure:
Procedure D-4 LVM-Maintenance Mode HP-UX Booting [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>). Enter the boot -lm
vmunix command.
For required configuration details, see “ACPI Configuration for HP-UX Must Be “default””
(page 207).
1. Access the EFI Shell environment for the nPartition on which you want to boot HP-UX in
LVM-maintenance mode.
Login to the service processor (MP or GSP) and enter CO to access the Console list. Select
the nPartition console.
When accessing the console, confirm that you are at the EFI Boot Manager menu (the main
EFI menu). If at another EFI menu, select Exit from the sub-menus until you return to the
screen with the EFI Boot Manager heading.
From the EFI Boot Manager menu, select the EFI Shell menu option to access the EFI Shell
environment.
2. Access the EFI System Partition (fsX: where X is the filesystem 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 invoke the \EFI\HPUX\HPUX.EFI loader on the selected device.
4. Press any key within the ten 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 service processor interfaces when finished using them.
To exit the EFI environment, enter ^B (Control-B). This exits the nPartition console and
returns to the service processor Main Menu. To exit the service processor, enter X at the
Main Menu.
