Prepare boot volume on HP 3PAR Storage System.

Refer to

“Creating Storage on the HP 3PAR Storage System” (page 17)

to setup the boot

volume and export it to the host. Use the WWN recorded in

Step 1

Connect cable between host HBA port and HP 3PAR Storage System HBA port. Both direct
and fabric connections are supported.

Power on host and check MP firmware level, refer to section 7 for requirements. Upgrade
firmware if needed. Then insert installation DVD and boot from DVD to this point:

Installation from HP-UX 11i v2 or 11i v3 DVDs
