Boot the desired device by using the
BOOT
command at the BCH interface, and specify that
the nPartition stop at the ISL prompt prior to booting (reply

shutdown -r
•
To shut down HP-UX and halt an nPartition:
shutdown -h

Procedure 7-4 Shutting Down HP-UX
From the HP-UX command line, issue the
shutdown
command to shut down the HP-UX OS.
1.
Log in to HP-UX running on the nPartition that you want to shut down.
Log in to the management processor for the server and use the Console menu to access the
system console. Accessing the console through the MP enables you to maintain console
access to the system after HP-UX has shut down.
