Adding HP-UX to the Boot Options List

This section describes how to add an HP-UX entry to the server boot options list.
You can add the \EFI\HPUX\HPUX.EFI loader to the boot options list from the EFI Shell or EFI
Boot Configuration menu (or in some versions of EFI, the Boot Option Maintenance Menu).
NOTE: On HP Integrity servers, the operating system installer automatically adds an entry to the
boot options list.
This procedure adds an HP-UX item to the boot options list from the EFI Shell.
To add an HP-UX boot option when logged in to HP-UX, use the setboot command. For details,
see the setboot(1M) manpage.
1. Access the EFI Shell environment.
Log in to the iLO 2 MP and enter CO to access the server console.
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.
From the EFI Boot Manager menu, choose the EFI Shell menu option to access the EFI Shell
environment.
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.
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 full path for the HP-UX loader is \EFI\HPUX\HPUX.EFI and it should be on the device
you are accessing.
3. At the EFI Shell environment, use the bcfg command to manage the boot options list.
The bcfg command includes the following options for managing the boot options list:
bcfg boot dump: Display all items in the boot options list for the server.
bcfg boot rm #: Remove the item number specified by #from the boot options list.
bcfg boot mv #a #b: Move the item number specified by #a to the position specified
by #bin the boot options list.
bcfg boot add # file.efi "Description": Add a new boot option to the
position in the boot options list specified by #. The new boot option references file.efi
and is listed with the title specified by Description.
For example, bcfg boot add 1 \EFI\HPUX\HPUX.EFI "HP-UX 11i"adds an
HP-UX 1 1i item as the first entry in the boot options list.
See the help bcfg command.
4. Exit the console and iLO 2 MP interfaces if you are finished using them.
Press Ctrl-B to exit the server console and return to the iLO 2 MP Main Menu. To exit the iLO
2 MP, enter X at the Main Menu.
