HP-UX Virtual Partitions Administrator Guide (includes A.05.09) (5900-2188, March 2012)
You will see a message similar to the following:
<MON> winona2 loaded
b. Press Ctrl-A until you see the console of the target partition. The console will display the
Ignite-UX installation interface.
c. Enter the boot disk path, lan info, hostname, and IP of the target partition into the Ignite-UX
interface and install HP-UX, desired patches, the Quality Pack bundle, the vPars bundle,
and the desired vPars-related bundles. As a result of this process, the virtual partition will
automatically reboot.
TIP: If you get a garbled display, you can press Ctrl-L to refresh the display.
Your system should now be booted with all virtual partitions up.
Installing vPars with Ignite-UX on Integrity
NOTE:
LAN Cards are Used for Boot During Installation on Integrity Systems
Unlike vPars on PA-RISC, vPars on Integrity uses the lan card of the target virtual partition for
lanboot. Check that your LAN card is supported for boot on 11.23 Integrity systems. For more
information, see the HP-UX Virtual Partitions Ordering and Configuration Guide.
Also, the I/O card and diagnostic utilities, such as FCFUPDATE and IODIAG.efi, will not operate
in vPars mode; you must be in nPars mode. If you need to update firmware, it will be easier if you
do so before booting in vPars mode. For information on modes, see “Modes: Switching between
nPars and vPars Modes (Integrity Only)” (page 120).
1. Prepare the nPartition for Installation of HP-UX by setting the nPartition’s acpiconfig setting
to default (for install of HP-UX) and verifying the hardware path of the first virtual partition.
Example:
a. acpiconfig
Shell> acpiconfig
Acpiconfig settings: default
If you must change the acpiconfig setting from windows to default, you must first enter
the acpiconfig default command, and then immediately enter reset to reboot
using the new setting.
b. hardware path
fs0: Acpi(000222F0,915)/Pci(0|0)/Scsi(Pun6,Lun0)/HD(Part1,SigF4250000)
2. From EFI, boot your system using the Ignite-UX server.
Example:
Shell> lanboot select
01 Acpi(000222F0,0)/Pci(1|0)/Mac(00306E0E5268)
Select Desired LAN: 1
Selected Acpi(000222F0,0)/Pci(1|0)/Mac(00306E0E5268)
