HP-UX” after
running either of the preceding options is also included.
Power
Up Procedures | |
Power
Up All External DevicesApply power to all external devices, such as additional disk
drives, Universal Power Supply, and Digital Data Storage. Observe
that each device passes its own selftest and is ready for operation.
Refer to the device-specific documentation as necessary.
Apply power to the A-Class server by toggling the rocker power
switch on the rear of the server from the 0 position to the 1 position.
All of the front panel LEDs will illuminate for a moment, then turn
off. Only the green power LED will remain illuminated until power
is switched off. If the LEDs do not illuminate or the server does
not appear to power on, refer to Chapter 3 “A-Class
System Service”. The server will automatically conduct a selftest and, upon
completion, the firmware Main Menu screen will be displayed at the
system console. Only the power LED should be illuminated at this
point. If AUTOBOOT is enabled, the system will automatically try
to boot HP-UX from the PRIMARY PATH. If you want to interrupt the
boot process, press any key on the keyboard within 10 seconds after
the message, Hit any key to interrupt the boot sequence is displayed.

Operating
System Software Installation |
| HP-UX may be installed from removable media (DDS or CDROM)
or via a LAN (Ignite-UX). A-Class servers require a server firmware
version of 39.32 or later to use Ignite-UX. A-Class server firmware
is Customer installable. Refer to patch installation instructions to install this firmware
patch on A-Class servers.
This is a temporary solution for rebuilding an A-Class system
from removable media (diskette or CD) only. This procedure is required
because the 10.20 Core Install media does not include the "btlan3" drivers
that you will need for networking support. This solution is for
the HP-UX 10.20 operating system with an Independent Peripheral Release
(IPR) of October 198 (9810) only. It is not needed for HP-UX 11.0
IPR 9810. Install HP-UX 10.20
for HP 9000 series 800 servers from removable media: Load
Core Install media into either CDROM or DDS. Change Alternate Path to
match the path of the device containing the install media.
If you are using a DDS: The console will display:
Type: co Press Enter. The console will next display:
Type: pa alt 8/16/5.0 Press Enter. The console will next display:
Type: au bo on Press Enter. The console will next display:
Type: bo alt Press Enter.
The following query will then be displayed:
Interact with IPL (Y, N, or Cancel)? |
Type: no Press Enter. The console will then display a menu. Select:
Press Enter. The console will display another menu. Select:
STANDARD LVM CONFIGURATION |
Press Enter. The console will display another menu. To the query:
type: no Press Enter. The system will begin the software installation process. When installation is complete,
the server will reboot and the console will display the following
prompt:
Are you ready to link the system to a network?
Press Y or N then press return. |
Type: n Press Enter. When prompted by the console display, enter the time and system
name. The server should now function as a stand-alone system, except
for an error in the /etc/rc.log file stating that the program "swagentd" could
not start. This is because the new kernel was not built with enough
networking support to allow the SD-UX (swinstall) software to run since
no valid network drivers (btlan3) were found on the 10.20 media.
To rebuild the kernel to allow the swinstall software to run, follow
the remainder of this procedure. Log in as a "root" user
and edit the "/stand/system" file to add the line:
lan0. When the system prompt "#" displays,
type the following command:
vi/stand/system Press Enter. To rebuild the kernel, type the
following command at the "#" prompt: mk_kernel -o/stand/vmunix Press Enter.
|
|
|
|
|
NOTE: Disregard the /usr/ccs/bin/ld: (Warning) "Linker
features were used..." This warning does not apply to this
procedure. |
|
|
|
|
To reboot the system, type the following command when the
system prompt "#" displays: reboot -r Press Enter. To make the SD-UX install software
work, type the following command when the system prompt "#" displays:
mknot/dev/lan0 c 52 0x000000 Press Enter. The SD-UX software should now work properly. The following command string
is for DDS installation of the XSW800HWECR1020 (version XR41) bundle
from removable media. This procedure will install the "btlan3" driver
and reboot the server, but it will not automatically add "btlan3" support
to the kernel. Type the following command when the system prompt "#" displays:
swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x match_target=true -s/dev/rmt/0m Press Enter.
The "btlan3" driver will be installed
and the server will reboot. To add "btlan3" driver
support to the kernel, edit the /stand/system file and add the line:
btlan3. To access the file, type the following command when
the system prompt "#" displays: vi /stand/system. When the file opens, add the "btlan3" line. Now, rebuild the kernel and reboot
the system. Type the following command when the system prompt "#" displays:
mk_kernel -o /stand/vmunix Press Enter.

NOTE: Disregard the /usr/ccs/bin/ld: (Warning) "Linker
features were used..." This warning does not apply to this
procedure. | |
|
|
|
Then, type the following command when the system prompt "#" displays: reboot -r Press Enter.
The system should now boot with an error-free /etc/rc.log
file. Finally, type the following command
when the system prompt "#" displays: /sbin/set_parms initial Press Enter.
Network configuration is now complete.
Boot
Procedures |
|
Boot
to Initial System Loader (ISL) (Optional) If you wish to verify that all external devices are identified
by the server before booting HP-UX:
Interrupt the boot
process if AUTOBOOT is enabled. At the firmware Main Menu screen,
type, bo pri. At the, Interact with IPL? prompt, type, y. The ISL> prompt will be displayed.
Run
Online Diagnostic Environment (ODE) Mapper (Optional)
At the, ISL> prompt, type, ODE. At the, ODE> prompt, type, run mapper.
Compare the ODE Mapper output to the devices present. Address
any discrepancies before continuing. To exit ODE, type exit at the, ODE> prompt.
This will return you to the, ISL> prompt.
If the boot
process was interrupted to run ODE Mapper, that process is resumed
by typing, hpux at the, ISL> prompt. If the boot process was not
interrupted, HP-UX will automatically boot.
