Booting HP-UX in LVM-maintenance mode
The procedure for booting HP-UX into LVM Maintenance Mode is the same as for booting into
single user mode (
“Booting HP-UX in single-user mode” (page 38)
), except use the
-lm
boot option
instead of the
-is
boot option:
HPUX> boot -lm vmunix
Shutting down HP-UX
For more information, see the shutdown(1M) manpage.
To shut down HP-UX running on a server:
1.
Log in to HP-UX running on the server that you want to shut down, or log in to iLO MP for the
server and use the Console menu to access the system console. Accessing the console through
iLO MP enables you to maintain console access to the server after HP-UX has shut down.
2.
Use the
shutdown
command with the appropriate command-line options.
The command-line options you specify determines the way in which HP-UX shuts down and
whether the server is rebooted.
Choose an HP-UX shutdown option for your server:
•
To shut down HP-UX and halt (power off) the server, use the
shutdown -h
command.
To reboot a halted server, power on the server by using the
PC
command at the iLO MP
Command menu.
•
To shut down HP-UX and reboot the server, use the
shutdown -r
command.
