User's Guide

Important:

If you disable autoboot and then install a system, the system never

exec

utes a final reboot without manual intervention. HP does not

support booting into any other mode than the default multi-user run level

at this point. The installation or recovery session has not yet completed,

and some steps must still be performed by Ignite-UX. Booting into

anything other than the default run level does not allow the installation

or recovery to complete. This is the intended behavior of Ignite-UX and

not a flaw. In general (except when investigating Ignite-UX issues on

advice from HP Support), you should never change the value of the

_hp_force_autoboot variable.

# Variable to give user control over the use of setboot. When the variable

# is YES, autoboot is set before the first reboot and restored after the

# first reboot. When the variable is NO, autoboot is never changed.

enum _hp_force_autoboot

_hp_force_autoboot = { "YES", "NO" }

init _hp_force_autoboot = "YES"

_hp_force_autoboot help_text "Force Ignite-UX autoboot?"

This variable is visible via the Additional button on the Basic tab in itool, and allows you to

control whether DHCP will be active on the final system or not. In this context it does not control

DHCP usage by Ignite-UX during a network boot. To affect a network boot so Ignite-UX will not

attempt to use DHCP to gain an IP address, this variable must be defined in the install file system.

# Variable to give user control over DHCP.

# If YES, then DHCP is turned off on the system.

enum _disable_dhcp

_disable_dhcp = { "YES", "NO" }

init _disable_dhcp = "NO"

_disable_dhcp help_text "Disable DHCP?"

_disable_dhcp == "YES" {

DISABLE_DHCP=TRUE

}

This configuration (like the above configuration for DHCP) exists in previous releases of Ignite-UX

for earlier revisions of HP-UX. The _hp_addnl_fs_free_pct allows you to define an additional

percentage free space that will be added to all file systems being created by Ignite-UX. The default

for this has always been 10%, but it can be changed to 0%. The additional free space allowed by

this variable is flexible. If Ignite-UX cannot fit the existing volumes into a disk once the extra free

space has been added, the amount added by this variable can be reduced until the volumes fit into

the disk space.

You can change the value of this variable via the Additional button on the Basic tab in the Ignite-

UX GUI..

# JAGae82704 fix. Variable to give user control over the amount of

# free space left over in a logical volume. It defaults to 10. The
