Booting To Single User Mode
In this example, the -i option is used to make the system come up in run-level
s, for single user mode of
operation.
ISL> hpux -is

Booting With A Modified I/O Configuration
Here, a disc driver is configured in at CIO slot 5, SCSI address 5 as a dump device. Regardless of what was
present in the kernel’s original I/O configuration, the driver disc is now configured at that hardware path.
Similarly, asio0 is configured in at CIO slot 63 which is to be the console. The only other devices
configured are the console and root device, which boot derived from pdc.
ISL> hpux -aC asio0(8/0/63) -aD disc(8/16/5.5)
Boot
: disk(8/0/19/0.14.0.0.0.0.0;0)/stand/vmunix
: Adding console (8.0.63;0)...
: Adding dump (8.16.5.5;0)...

Displaying The Autoexecute File
In this example, show autofile is used to print the contents of the autoexecute file residing in the
boot LIF, on the device from which
hpux was booted. Optionally, a devicefile can be specified in order to
read the
autoexecute file from the boot LIF of another boot device.
ISL> hpux show autofile
Show autofile
: AUTO file contains (hpux)
Changing The Autoexecute File
This example shows how to change the contents of the autoexecute file. Once done, the system can be
reset, and the new command will be used during any unattended boot.
ISL> hpux set autofile "hpux /stand/myconfig/vmunix"
Set autofile
: disk(2/0/1.3.0.0.0.0.0;0)
: AUTO file now contains "(hpux /stand/myconfig/vmunix)"
Listing Directory Contents
The contents of the directory (/stand) on the root disk are listed. The format shows the file protections,
number of links, user id, group id, and size in bytes for each file in the directory. There are three available
kernel configurations to boot: the default configuration (vmunix), the automatic backup configuration
(backup), and one other saved configuration (good). Listing the files over the LAN is not supported.
ISL> hpux ll /stand
