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.
Log in to the iLO 2MP and enter CO to choose the system console.
Confirm that you are at the EFI Boot Manager Menu (the main EFI menu) when accessing the
console. If you are at another EFI menu, choose the Exit option 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.
The EFI Shell displays all the files systems and block devices available.
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.
NOTE:
server boots, or when you issue the map -r command).
4.
When accessing the EFI System Partition for the desired boot device, issue the HPUX command
to initiate the HPUX.EFI loader on the device you are accessing.
The full path for the loader is \EFI\HPUX\HPUX.EFI. When initiated, the loader references
the \EFI\HPUX\AUTO file and proceeds to boot HP-UX using the default boot behavior
specified in the AUTO file.
You have 10 seconds to interrupt the automatic booting of the default boot behavior. Pressing
any key during this 10-second period stops the HP-UX boot process and enables you to interact
with the HPUX.EFI loader. To exit the loader (the HPUX> prompt) enter exit (this returns
you to the EFI Shell).
To boot the HP-UX operating system, do not enter anything during the 10 second period given
for stopping at the HPUX.EFI loader.
