Booting HP-UX Using the EFI Shell
If the Instant Ignition was ordered, HP-UX will have been installed in the factory at the Primary Path
address. If HP-UX is at a path other than the Primary Path, do the following:
1. Type cmto enter the Command Menu from the Main Menu.
2. MP:CM> bo This command boots the selected partition.
Select a partition to boot:
3. Return to the Main Menu: MP:CM> ma
4. From the Main Menu, go to the Consoles Menu: MP> co.
Select a partition number.
5. Return to the Main Menu by pressing Ctrl+B.

Shell> fso:
7. At the fs0 prompt, type hpux to boot the HP-UX operating system:
fso:\> hpux
NOTE: If the partition fails to boot or if the server was shipped without Instant Ignition, booting
from a DVD that contains the operating system and other necessary software might be required.
Adding Processors with Instant Capacity
The Instant Capacity program provides access to additional CPU resources beyond the amount
that was purchased for the server. This provides the ability to activate additional CPU power for
unexpected growth and unexpected spikes in workloads. Internally, Instant Capacity systems
physically have more CPUs, called Instant Capacity CPUs, than the number of CPUs actually
purchased. These Instant Capacity CPUs reside in the purchased system, but they belong to HP
and therefore are HP assets. A nominal “Right-To-Access Fee” is paid to HP for each Instant Capacity
processor in the system. At any time, any number of Instant Capacity CPUs can be “activated.”
Activating an Instant Capacity CPU automatically and instantaneously transforms the Instant Capacity
CPU into an instantly ordered and fulfilled CPU upgrade that requires payment. After the Instant
Capacity CPU is activated and paid for, it is no longer an Instant Capacity CPU, but is now an
ordered and delivered CPU upgrade for the system.
See the HP Instant Capacity User's Guide for Version 9.x for the most current information on
installing, configuring, and troubleshooting Instant Capacity at the following website:
