Standard HP-UX Booting

Use either of the following procedures to boot HP-UX:
"Booting HP-UX (EFI Boot Manager)" (page 119)
"Booting HP-UX (EFI Shell)" (page 119)
Procedure 1 Booting HP-UX (EFI Boot Manager)
From the EFI Boot Manager Menu, choose an item from the boot options list to boot
HP-UX.
1. Access the EFI Boot Manager Menu for the server on which you want to boot
HP-UX.
a. To access the server console, log in to iLO and enter CO.
b. 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.
c. To access the EFI Shell environment, choose EFI Shell from the EFI Boot
Manager menu.
2. At the EFI Boot Manager menu, choose an item from the boot options list.
Each item in the boot options list references a specific boot device and provides
a specific set of boot options or arguments you use when booting the device.
3. Press Enter to initiate booting using the chosen boot option.
4. Exit the console and iLO MP interfaces when finished using them.
To exit the server console and return to the iLO MP Main Menu, press Ctrl+B.
To exit the iLO MP, enter X at the Main Menu.
Procedure 2 Booting HP-UX (EFI Shell)
From the EFI Shell environment, boot HP-UX on a device by first accessing the EFI
System Partition (for example fs0:) for the root device, then entering HPUX to initiate
the loader.
1. Access the EFI Shell environment for the server on which you want to boot HP-UX.
a. To access the server console, log in to iLO and enter CO.
b. 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.
c. To access the EFI Shell environment, choose EFI Shell from the EFI Boot
Manager menu.
2. At the EFI Shell environment, issue the map command to list all currently mapped
bootable devices.
The bootable file systems of interest typically are listed as fs0:, fs1:, and so
on.
3. Access the EFI System Partition (fsX: where X is the file system number) for
the device from which you want to boot HP-UX.
For example, enter fs2: to access the EFI System Partition for the bootable file
system number 2. The EFI Shell prompt changes to reflect the file system currently
accessed.
The file system number might change each time it is mapped (for example, when
the server boots, or when the map -r command is issued).
