LVM-Maintenance Mode HP-UX Booting
This section describes how to boot HP-UX in LVM-maintenance mode on cell-based HP 9000 servers
and cell-based HP Integrity servers.
On HP 9000 servers, to boot HP-UX in LVM-maintenance mode, see “LVM-Maintenance Mode
HP-UX Booting (BCH Menu)”
On HP Integrity servers, to boot HP-UX in LVM-maintenance mode, see “LVM-Maintenance

Procedure 7 LVM-Maintenance Mode HP-UX Booting (BCH Menu)
From the BCH Menu, you can boot HP-UX in LVM-maintenance mode by issuing the boot command,
stopping at the ISL interface, and issuing hpux loader options. The BCH Menu is available only
on HP 9000 servers.
1. Access the BCH Main Menu for the nPartition on which you want to boot HP-UX in
LVM-maintenance mode.
Log in to the management processor and enter co to access the Console list. Select the nPartition
console. When accessing the console, confirm that you are at the BCH Main Menu (the Main
Menu: Enter command or menu> prompt). If you are at a BCH menu other than the Main
Menu, then enter ma to return to the BCH Main Menu.
2. Boot the desired device by using the boot command at the BCH interface, and specify that
the nPartition stop at the ISL prompt prior to booting (reply y to the “stop at the ISL prompt”
question).
3. From the ISL prompt, issue the appropriate Secondary System Loader (hpux) command to
boot the HP-UX kernel in the desired mode.
To boot HP-UX in LVM-maintenance mode:
ISL>hpux -lm boot /stand/vmunix
