27 Oct 14 EFI boot configuration rx7640 san boot vpmon example
EFI boot configuration
This example uses AUTO file to boot vpmon. This example happens to use HP-UX B.11.23 but the procedure is the same for B.11.31 though the disk paths will look different.
AUTO
boot /stand/vpmon
map –r
The bootable disks show Part1 on the disk list (highlighted). Local disks (which should not be used are SCSI, SAN disks show a WWN(also bold) output is truncated.

To set a boot disk you need to fs#:
Then cd /EFI/HPUX and run the bcfg command
In this example, the boot disks for the vpar are fs7: and fsB:
fs7:
cd EFI
cd HPUX
fs7: \EFI\HPUX> bcfg boot add 1 hpux.efi “HPUX primary vpar boot”
fsB: \EFI\HPUX> bcfg boot add 2 hpux.efi “HPUX alternate vpar boot”
Boot menu should look like this:
HPUX primary vpar boot
HPUX alternate vpar boot

We check the return code to make sure the operation was a success. Repeat for each legacy device.
No downtime though for prodcution systems I recommend working with a change request under your organizations policy.

21 Jun 12 When swinstall will not install: What to check
I’ve just been through another frustrating battle with swinstall and wanted a complete what to check list in the event that it won’t install software:
- Check that system ip address (ifconfig lan#) is the same as defined in /etc/hosts . If this is not consistent, swinstall will not work and the error message is far from meaningful.
- Check that /etc/nsswitch.conf exists. After a clean install it does not exist and needs to be put in place.
- Check that nfs is working correctly for nfs based install. Bounce nfs.client,nfs.server,nfs.core in that order to stop reverse order to start ex /sbin/init.d/nfs.core <start/stop>
- Use showmount -e <remotehost> to insure connectivity to remote depots.
- swlist -l depot -s <remote host depot>
- swreg -d depot $PWD on remote host after cd to depot. Remember in many scenarios remote depots in tape format will not install.
- /usr/sbin/swagentd -r (Should be taken after any of the above corrective steps).

16 Feb 12 Enabling a falsely disabled OnlineJFS license
Older versions of HP-UX 11.11,11.23 and 11.31 do suffer from the OnlineJFS license disabling itself. This was due to a product defect from Symanntec which HP let into a depot a few years ago.
System had this license information:
vxlicrep[/root] # vxlicrep

Command and response.
fsadm: /etc/default/fs is used for determining the file system type

After the vxenablef -a statement the fsadm command starts to work. This will is not a license bypass. If the system is not actually licensed it won’t work.
fsadm command works after this correction.
