The front side bus (FSB) is the IA64 processor bus, based on bus protocol from Intel. Unlike
previous PA-RISC microprocessors that utilized HP proprietary processor buses, this processor
is designed to utilize the FSB. This allows processor field replaceable units (FRUs) to be dropped
in, provided that electrical and mechanical compatibility and support circuitry exist. For the
purposes of this document, a FRU consists of a single processor with power pod, and the heat
sink assembly.
Each processor plugs directly into, and is powered by its own 12 V to 1.2 V power pod. Other
power for the system board comes from multiple on-board DC to DC converters. Each processor
is attached to the board through a ZIF socket and the entire FRU secured by a heat sink.
Processor Bus
The FSB in this product runs at 200 MHz. Data on the FSB are transferred at a double data rate,
which allows a peak FSB bandwidth of 6.4 Gb/s.
ZX1 I/O and Memory Controller
The server supports the following features of the ZX1 I/O and memory controller chip:
•
•
•
•
8.5 Gb/s peak I/O bandwidth
Seven communication paths
Peak memory bandwidth of 8.5 Gb/s
Two memory cells, 144 data bits each
Memory
The memory subsystem provides two memory cells. Each cell is 144 data bits wide. Each cell has
six DIMM slots, which means a total of 12 DIMM slots are available. The memory bus clock speed
is 133 MHz, and the data transfer rate is 266 Mtransfers/s as data is clocked on both edges of the
clock. The peak data bandwidth for this memory subsystem design is 8.5 Gb/s. Load DIMMs in
quads with qualified modules. Memory is protected by data ECC, and the hardware
implementation supports chip-spare.
The minimum amount of memory supported by the server is 1 GB (four 256 MB modules). The
maximum amount of memory supported by the server is 32 GB (eight 4 GB modules).
This design does not support any nonindustry-standard DDR DIMMs. Only qualified DIMMs

Memory Architecture
The I/O ASIC memory interface supports two DDR cells. Each cell is 144 data bits wide. The
memory subsystem physical design uses a comb-filter termination scheme for the data and the
address and control buses. This topology is similar to other DDR designs. Clocks are distributed
directly from the I/O ASIC. Each clock pair drives two DIMMs.
Memory data is protected by the ECC. Eight ECC bits per DIMM protect 64 bits of data. The use
of ECC allows correction of single-bit errors, and detection of multi-bit errors. Only DIMMs with
ECC are qualified or supported.
DIMMs
The memory subsystem supports only DDR SDRAM (Double Data Rate Synchronous Dynamic
Random Access Memory) technology utilizing industry-standard PC-1600 type DDR SDRAM
DIMMs, 1.2" tall. The DIMMs use a 184-pin JEDEC standard connector.
DIMMs are loaded in a group of four, known as a quad. All four DIMMs in a quad must be the

Chip Spare Functionality
Chip spare enables an entire DDR SDRAM chip on a DIMM to be bypassed in the event that a
multi-bit error is detected on the DDR SDRAM. To use the chip spare functionality on your
server, use only DIMMs built with ×4 DDR SDRAM parts, and load these DIMMs in quads.
The memory subsystem design supports the I/O ASIC chip spare functionality. Chip spare enables
an entire SDRAM chip on a DIMM to be bypassed/replaced in the event that a multi-bit error is
detected on that SDRAM. To use the chip spare functionality, use only DIMMs built with x4
SDRAM parts, and load these DIMMs in quads (two DIMMs per memory cell, loaded in the
same location in each memory cell). Each DIMM within a quad must be identical to all the other
DIMMs in the quad.
Chip spare is achieved if four identical DIMMs are loaded into a quad. If more DIMMs are added,
they must be loaded in quads to maintain the chip spare functionality. So, if more DIMMs are
added in to the example case, four identical DIMMs (identical to each other, but can be different
from the original quad that was loaded) must be loaded into the next quad. However, if you are
using 4 GB DIMMS, the only configuration supported is eight 4 GB DIMMS in the first three
quads, with no other DIMMs in the remaining quad. For slot and quad locations, see Figure 4-23
Serial Presence Detect
Each DIMM contains an I2C electronically erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM)
whose content describes the module characteristics. This feature is called serial presence detect
(SPD). Firmware typically uses this information to detect unmatched pairs of DIMMs and
configure certain memory subsystem parameters. The SPD information for DIMMs loaded in
the server is also accessible to the BMC through the I2C bus.

hot-swappable. This section explains how to replace the following devices while the server is
running:
•
•
•
System fans
Power supplies
Hard drives
There is a significant difference between the terms hot-swap and hot-plug:
•
Hot swapping happens at the device level. A hot-swappable device manages insertion or
removal on its own without assistance from operating system commands.
•
Hot-plugging allows you to replace a defective component in a high-availability server while
it is running. However, hot-plugging might require interaction with the operating server to
allow the removal and replacement of a hot-plug device.
Removing and Replacing Server Fans
Four server fans keep the server cool. The server fans are hot-swappable, enabling you to replace
a fan while the server is running.

Removing and Replacing the Power Supply
The supported configuration of the server requires a minimum of one power supply unit (PSU)
to be installed. A second, optional hot-swap PSU, can be installed to provide redundant (N+1)
capability.
The power supplies in the server are hot-swappable, that is if one power supply stops working
or exhibits voltage problems, the remaining supply can support the server until the failed unit
is replaced. A power supply can be removed and replaced without turning off the server on
servers with two power supplies.
CAUTION: Before removing a power supply, make sure the second power supply is functioning
properly. The two green LEDs inside the supply must be illuminated on the second supply before

Removing and Replacing Memory DIMMs
Your server has 12 memory sockets for installing DDR SDRAM memory DIMMs. The supported
DIMM sizes are 256 MB, 512 MB, 1 GB, 2 GB, or 4 GB. The server supports combinations from 1
WARNING! Ensure that the server is powered off, and all power sources have been disconnected
from the server before removing or replacing server memory.
Voltages are present at various locations within the server when an AC power source is connected.
This voltage is present even when the main power switch is in the off position.
Failure to observe this warning could result in personal injury or damage to equipment.
CAUTION: Observe all ESD safety precautions before attempting this procedure. Failure to
follow ESD safety precautions could result in damage to the server.
Supported DIMM Sizes
Supported DIMM sizes are 256 MB, 512 MB, 1 GB, 2 GB, and 4 GB. Memory in the server is
installed in quads. A quad of memory is a set of four matching DIMMs. Quad sizes can differ
within the server as long as all DIMMs within a quad match, unless you are installing 4 GB
DIMMs. The only set up allowed with 4 GB DIMMs is to install eight 4 GB DIMMs. The server
supports combinations from 1 GB (using 256 MB DIMMs) to 32 GB (using eight 4 GB DIMMs).

Installing DIMMs
You must load DIMMs in the correct order:
•
You must install DIMMs in matched quads. Two matched memory card pairs of equal size
(that is, four identical DIMMs) must be installed, one pair per memory cell as follows:
•
•
•
0A, 0B and 1A, 1B must be matched pairs of equal size
2A, 2B and 3A, 3B must be matched pairs of equal size
4A, 4B and 5A, 5B must be matched pairs of equal size
NOTE: DIMMs match if they have the same HP part number. The DIMMs are 184-pin,
industry-standard, DDR266, CL2, registered ECC modules. Industry standard means the DIMMs
meet specifications detailed in the JDEC Standard No. 21-C, Module 4, titled “PC2100 and PC1600
DDR SDRAM Registered DIMM Design Specification.” A complete and current list of acceptable
Module sizes can be mixed, as long as DIMMs in each quad match, except when using 4 GB
DIMMs. If you install 4 GB DIMMS, the only configuration allowed is 8 4GB DIMMs. For example:
•
It is acceptable to load a quad of 256 MB DIMMs in sockets 0A, 0B, 1A and 1B; and a quad
of 1 GB DIMMs in sockets 2A, 2B, 3A and 3B.
•
If using 4 GB DIMMs, the only configuration allowed is 4 GB DIMMs in slots 0A, 0B, 1A,
1B, 2A, 2B, 3A, and 3B. Slots 4A, 4B, 5A, and 5B must remain empty.
The memory subsystem supports chip-spare functionality. Chip spare enables an entire SDRAM
chip on a DIMM to be bypassed (logically replaced) in the event that a multi-bit error is detected
on that SDRAM.
To use the chip spare functionality, only DIMMs built with x4 SDRAM parts can be used, and
these DIMMs must be loaded in quads (two DIMMs per memory cell, loaded in the same location
in each memory cell).
Each DIMM within a quad must be identical to all the other DIMMs in the quad.
To install DIMMs:
CAUTION: To ensure that memory modules are not damaged during removal or installation,
power off the server and unplug the power cord from the AC power outlet. Wait until the
LED on the back of the power supply turns off before removing or installing memory.
3. Holding the memory module by its left and right edges, insert the module into the socket.
The memory modules are keyed and can only be inserted in one direction. When the module
is correctly seated, the retainer clips return to their fully upright position.
4. Snap the retainer clips firmly into place to ensure the DIMMs are seated properly.
5. Gently and evenly push on each side of the DIMM until it seats in the socket.
7. Replace the server top metal cover, reconnect all cables.
8. Power on the server.
9. Verify that the newly installed memory works:
•
•
Run the info memcommand at the EFI shell prompt, or
Run the memdiagfrom the Offline Diagnostics CD to ensure that the memory is
functional
•
Monitor the System Event Log (SEL) to ensure there are no events showing memory
problems.

5 Troubleshooting
This chapter provides troubleshooting instructions for maintaining the server.
Troubleshooting Tips
CAUTION: Do not operate the server for more than 30 minutes with any cover (including disk
drives) removed. Damage to server components can result due to improper cooling airflow.
If you do not replace the top cover within 30 minutes, the server automatically shuts off.
•
•
For problems with an optional disk array controller board, refer to the appropriate manuals
provided with the array controller.
Possible Issues
This section contains example server problems and their possible solutions. For details on the
iLO MP commands, see the HP Integrity and HP 9000 iLO Operations Guide.
The System Does Not Power-On
1. Review the installation procedures for the server.
2. Check all power connection cables.
3. Verify that the Power On/Off LED on the control panel is illuminated. If not illuminated
check the AC power. If the LED is flashing yellow, the server is in DC standby. Check the
power status with the iLO MP PScommand. If the Power On/Off LED is illuminated steady
green, the DC power supply is on.
4. Check the normal operation of the power supply and fans. The iLO MP PScommand
interrogates the status of the power subsystem.
5. Check the system board diagnostic LEDs for proper operation. See System Board Diagnostic
LEDs later in this chapter.
6. Verify that both LEDs of the power supply (visible behind bezel) are illuminated. The upper
LED indicates presence of proper AC voltage, and the lower indicates that the DC power is
good.
7. Verify that all cables and modules are correctly connected. Check the display panel
connection. Use the iLO MP VFPcommand to verify a match of control panel LED indications.
8. If the server starts to power on and then power off, a voltage rail of the power supply might
be out of specification. The BMC monitors voltages and prevents power on when power
values are out of specification. If this occurs, check the SEL logs for an alert with a high level
(alert level 5 or alert level 7). Also check the power subsystem with the iLO MP PScommand.
The System Does Not Boot
1. Examine the display panel LEDs for warning or fault indications. The server LED flashes
yellow with a warning indication and flashes red with a fault indication. If this occurs, check
the SEL logs for additional information on the alert.
2. Examine the four diagnostic LEDs for specific warning or fault indications. The diagnostic
LEDs present patterns that categorize the source of the warning or fault. This information
is also presented in the SEL.
Troubleshooting Tips
95
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
NOTE: If MP hardware is installed, the diagnostic LEDs are monitored by iLO. The
diagnostic LEDs on the control panel are disabled.
3. Display and examine the SEL and Forward Progress Log (FPL) for more information about
warning or fault indication.
4. Use the BMC CLI to cycle the server power, cli>pc off, cli>pc on. You can also use
the iLO MP PCcommand (pc -cycle -nc).
5. Remove all power from the server by disconnecting the AC power cords, wait at least twenty
seconds, then reconnect the power cords and turn the server back on to see if the failure can
be cleared.
6. Check server memory for possible problems. You can also use the EFI info memcommand.
7. Check server processors for possible problems. You can also use the EFI info cpucommand.
Or, by using the iLO MP SScommand.
8. Check the boot order in the Boot Configuration menu.
9. If the server still does not boot, you might need to replace the base unit.
The System Has Intermittent Failures
1. Examine the display panel LEDs for warning or fault indications. The server LED flashes
yellow with a warning indication and flashes red with a fault indication.
2. Examine the four diagnostic LEDs for specific warning or fault indications. The diagnostic
LEDs present patterns that categorize the source of the warning or fault.
NOTE: If iLO MP hardware is installed, the boot process is monitored by the iLO MP. The
diagnostic LEDs are disabled.
3. Display and examine the SEL and FPL for more information about warning or fault indication.
4. Make sure that the server fan assemblies are fully seated.
5. Verify that the server is plugged into a power source that is within specifications described
on the label of the power supply.
6. Make sure that the internal SCSI chain is terminated and termination is not enabled on any
drive. With LVD SCSI, termination is provided in the cable.
7. Check that the processors are installed in the correct sockets, and terminators are installed
in all unused sockets.
8. Reseat the main memory DDR DIMMs.
9. If date and time or customer settings are cleared, you might need to replaced the system
board battery.
The System LED or Diagnostic LEDs are Not On, and No Error Messages Appear
If the server does not work (with no LEDs illuminated) and no error messages appear, check the
following:
1. Make sure that all cables and the AC power cord are plugged into their proper receptacles.
2. Make sure that the AC outlet is working. If the server is plugged into a switched
multiple-outlet box, make sure that the switch on the outlet box is turned on.
3. Make sure that the server is turned on (the power-on light should be green and the fans
should be on).
4. Turn the server off, wait at least twenty seconds, then turn the server back on to see if the
failure can be cleared.
5. Make sure that all boards are installed properly and the processors are installed in the correct
slot. They must be seated firmly in their slots and any cables must be connected firmly.

6. If the server stopped working after you installed a new board, remove the board and power
on the server. If your server now works, check the installation instructions received with
the new board for correct installation method. If the new board is preventing the server from
powering on, a serious electrical problem is likely.
7. If the server still does not work, remove all boards and options that you have installed (do
not remove the hard drives) and power on the server.
8. Add the boards and options one at a time to determine which one is causing the problem.
9. If you have added any memory, make sure that the DDR DIMMs are seated properly in the
board. Also check the DDR DIMM configuration, and that the DDR DIMMs are matched
quads.
The Server Powers Off but Does Not Restart
When certain critical conditions exist, the server shuts off all power.
The critical conditions that can shut off the server include:
•
•
•
critical temperature fluctuations or changes
voltage problems (external AC line)
power supply failure
If the server powers off, and before you try a restart, do the following:
1. Examine the display panel LEDs for warning or fault indications. The server LED flashes
yellow with a warning indication and flashes red with a fault indication.
2. Examine the four diagnostic LEDs for indications of specific warning or fault indications.
The diagnostic LEDs present patterns that categorize the source of the warning or fault.
NOTE: If MP hardware is installed, the boot process is monitored by the iLO MP. The
diagnostic LEDs are disabled.
3. Display and examine the SEL and FPL for further information about warning or fault
indication.
4. Make sure power is getting to the server. Plug a known working device into the power
outlet.
5. Check for proper ventilation for the server. The server should have at least three inches of
space around the front and rear for proper airflow when installed in a rack.
NOTE: A fluctuating power supply might cause temperature issues.
6. Check the server specifications and make sure the environmental temperature and voltage
are within the specified guidelines.
7. Monitor the server to make sure you are not experiencing further temperature and voltage
problems.

Verifying Hard Drive Operation
NOTE: Only the Activity LED is used. The Status LED is not monitored by HP-UX.
Figure 5-1 LED Apertures on Hard Drive
Lightpipes on the disk drive transmit light to these apertures from LEDs on the inside rear of
the hot-swap mass storage cage. Verify that the LED shows the correct activity indication for all
disk drives that you installed:
1. Turn on power to the server and display monitor.
2. During the boot sequence, watch the Activity LED on each hard drive. The LED quickly
cycles from amber to green. The LED stays steady green until the drive spins up.
3. If the activity LED is illuminated on any disk drive, the drive cage might not be correctly
installed. Check installation as follows:
a. Power off the server using the power switch and unplug the AC power cords and any
cables.
b. Disconnect the power distribution cable between the drive cage and the power
distribution module and then reconnect it.
c. Verify that the SCSI interface is correctly installed from SCSI A channel connector on
the system board to the connector on the SCSI cage.
d. Ensure that the SCSI bus is loaded properly.
e. Reconnect the AC power cords and any cables. Restart the server to determine whether
the LEDs now become illuminated during the boot. If not, contact your reseller.
4. If the LED indicator on a single disk drive is not illuminated during boot, the disk drive
might be installed incorrectly, or its lightpipes might be damaged.
Check the lightpipe on the disk drive as follows:
a. Remove the disk drive.
b. Inspect the lightpipes for damage. If a lightpipe is damaged, contact your reseller.
CAUTION: The lightpipes are fragile. Be careful not to damage them when you inspect
them or when you reinsert the disk drive.
c. Reinstall the disk drive.
d. Restart the server to determine whether the LED now becomes illuminated during the
boot. If not, contact your reseller.
5. Use the EFI shell command info ioto check the SCSI drives.

Identifying and Diagnosing Hardware Issues
Should a failure occur, the server LEDs, the diagnostic LEDs, and the SEL help you identify the
problem.
•
The server LED, LAN LED, and diagnostic LEDs on the display panel of the server change
color and blink in different patterns to help identify specific problems. LEDs on the front
and rear panels of the server display LAN activity.
•
The SEL provides detailed information about the errors identified by the LEDs.
If the LEDs and SEL do not give you enough information for you to identify the problem you
are experiencing, HP also provides diagnostic tools with each operating system.
Power and System LEDs
The power and server LEDs indicate the state of the server. When the server LED is flashing
yellow or red, a problem exists.
NOTE: When the optional iLO MP card is installed, the four diagnostic LEDs on the display
panel are disabled.

Diagnostics
A suite of offline and online support tools are available to enable you to troubleshoot server
problems. In general, if the operating system (HP-UX) is running, do not shut it down. Use the
online support tools.
If the operating system cannot be booted, use the offline support tools to resolve the problem.
The offline support tools are available from the EFI partition. After you resolve the problem,
boot HP-UX, and use the online support tools for any further testing.
You cannot reach the EFI from either the main disk or from LAN, you must troubleshoot using
the visual fault indicators, console messages, and system error logs that are available.
Online Diagnostics and Exercisers
Online support tools are provided under both operating systems. Centralized error archiving
and hardware inventory tools are available as long as the agents/providers that support them
are installed on the managed server.
On HP-UX systems, the legacy tools within OnlineDiag continue to be supported. The online
support tools, on HP-UX 11.23 and greater, include the Support Tool Manager (STM) tools and
the additional Web-Based Enterprise Management (WBEM) features added by SysFaultMgmt.
The STM tools include verifiers, diagnostics, exercisers, information modules, and expert tools.
Verifiers quickly determine whether or not a specific device is operational by performing tasks
similar in nature to the way applications use the device. No license is required to run the verifiers.
Diagnostics are tools designed to identify faulty or failed FRUs.
Diagnostics 111
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
Exercisers stress devices to facilitate the reproduction of intermittent problems.
Information modules create a log of information specific to one device, including:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
The product identifier
A description of the device
The hardware path to the device
The vendor
Onboard log information (if applicable)
Miscellaneous information associated with the device
The firmware revision code, if present
Expert tools are device-specific troubleshooting utilities for use by sophisticated users. Their
functionality varies from tool to tool, but they are intended to be interactive, and rely on users
to provide information necessary to perform a particular task. You must have the appropriate
license to run these tools.
Online Support Tool Availability
Online diagnostics are included in the HP-UX OE media, and are installed by default.
Online Support Tools List
The following online support tools are available on HP-UX 11.23 hosted servers. In some cases,
a tool, such as a disk exerciser, is generic to many types of hardware; in other cases, a tool, such
as a tape diagnostic, is specific to a particular technology or type of tape drive.

Fault Management Overview
The goal of fault management and monitoring is to increase server availability, by moving from
a reactive fault detection, diagnosis, and repair strategy to a proactive fault detection, diagnosis,
and repair strategy. The objectives include:
•
•
•
To detect problems automatically, as close as possible to the time of occurrence.
To diagnose problems automatically, at the time of detection.
To automatically report (in understandable text) a description of the problem, the likely
causes of the problem, the recommended actions to resolve the problem, and detailed
information about the problem.
•
To ensure that tools are available to repair or recover from the fault.
HP-UX Fault Management
Proactive fault prediction and notification is provided on HP-UX by SysFaultMgmt WBEM
indication providers, as well as by the Event Management Service (EMS). EMS and WBEM
provide frameworks for monitoring and reporting events.
SysFaultMgmt WBEM indication providers and the EMS Hardware Monitors allow users to
monitor the operation of a wide variety of hardware products, and alert them immediately if
any failure or other unusual event occurs. By using hardware event monitoring, users can virtually
eliminate undetected hardware failures that could interrupt server operation or cause data loss.

B Booting the Operating System
This chapter covers procedures for booting and shutting down an operating system on the server.
Operating Systems Supported on HP Integrity Servers
HP supports the following operating systems on entry-class HP Integrity servers.
•
•
•
•
•
HP-UX 11i Version 2 (B.11.23)
HP OpenVMS I64
Microsoft Windows Server 2003
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4
SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 10
Configuring System Boot Options
This section discusses the server boot options you can configure on entry-class HP Integrity
servers, including the boot options list and the autoboot setting for the server.
•
Boot Options List The boot options list is a list of loadable items available for you to choose
from the EFI Boot Manager menu. The boot options list includes the EFI Shell and one or
more operating system loaders.
The following example includes boot options for HP OpenVMS, Microsoft Windows, HP-UX,
and the EFI Shell. The final item in the EFI Boot Manager menu, the Boot Configuration
menu, is not a boot option. The Boot Configuration menu allows server configuration through
a maintenance menu.
EFI Boot Manager ver 1.10 [14.61] Please select a boot option
HP OpenVMS 8.2-1
EFI Shell [Built-in]
Windows Server 2003, Enterprise
HP-UX Primary Boot: 4/0/1/1/0.2.0
Boot Option Maintenance Menu
Use ^ and v to change option(s). Use Enter to select an option
NOTE: In some versions of EFI, the Boot Configuration Menu is listed as the Boot Option
Maintenance Menu.
To manage the boot options list for each server, use the EFI Shell, the EFI Boot Configuration
Menu, or operating system utilities.
At the EFI Shell, the bcfgcommand supports listing and managing the boot options list for
all operating systems, except Microsoft Windows. On HP Integrity servers with Windows
installed, the \MSUtil\nvrboot.efiutility is provided for managing Windows boot
options from the EFI Shell. For HP Integrity servers with OpenVMS installed, the
\efi\vms\vms_bcfg.efiand \efi\vms\vms_showutilities are provided for managing
OpenVMS boot options.
Operating Systems Supported on HP Integrity Servers 125
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
The EFI Boot Configuration Menu provides the Add a Boot Option, Delete Boot Options,
and Change Boot Order menu items (use this method if you must add an EFI Shell entry to
the boot options list).
Operating system utilities for managing the boot options list include the HP-UX setboot
command and the HP OpenVMS @SYS$MANAGER:BOOT_OPTIONS.COMcommand.
For details, see the following sections:
—
—
—
—
•
Autoboot Setting The autobootsetting determines, at startup, whether a server
automatically loads the first item in the boot options list, or remains at the EFI Boot Manager
menu. When autoboot is enabled, EFI loads the first item in the boot options list after a
designated timeout period.
Configure the autoboot setting for an HP Integrity server using either the autobootEFI
Shell command, or the Set Auto Boot TimeOut menu item from the EFI Boot Configuration
menu.
For example, from the EFI Shell to disable autoboot issue the autoboot offcommand.
To enable autoboot with the default timeout value issue the autoboot oncommand. To
enable autoboot with a timeout of 60 seconds issue the autoboot time 60command.
Set autoboot from HP-UX using the setbootcommand. Enable autoboot from HP-UX
using the setboot -b oncommand. Disable autoboot using the setboot -b off
command.
Booting and Shutting Down HP-UX
This section covers booting and shutting down HP-UX on entry-class HP Integrity servers.
•
•
To boot HP-UX, use the following procedures:
—
—
—
“Standard HP-UX Booting” (page 127) describes the standard ways to boot HP-UX.
Typically this results in booting HP-UX in multiuser mode.
“Single-User Mode HP-UX Booting” (page 128) describes how to boot HP-UX in
single-user mode.
Logical Volume Management (LVM) maintenance mode.
•
Adding HP-UX to the Boot Options List
This section describes how to add an HP-UX entry to the server boot options list.
You can add the \EFI\HPUX\HPUX.EFIloader to the boot options list from the EFI Shell or EFI
Boot Configuration menu (or in some versions of EFI, the Boot Option Maintenance Menu).
NOTE: On HP Integrity servers, the operating system installer automatically adds an entry to
the boot options list.
Adding an HP-UX Boot Option
This procedure adds an HP-UX item to the boot options list from the EFI Shell.
To add an HP-UX boot option when logged in to HP-UX, use the setbootcommand. For details
see the setboot(1M) manpage.
126 Booting the Operating System
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
1. Access the EFI Shell environment.
a. To access the server console, log in to iLO and enter CO.
b. When accessing the console, confirm that you are at the EFI Boot Manager menu (the
main EFI menu). If you are at another EFI menu, choose Exit from the submenus until
you return to the screen with the EFI Boot Manager heading.
c. To access the EFI Shell environment, choose EFI Shell from the EFI Boot Manager menu.
2. Access the EFI System Partition (fsX:where X is the file system number) for the device
from which you want to boot HP-UX.
For example, enter fs2:to access the EFI System Partition for the bootable file system
number 2. The EFI Shell prompt changes to reflect the file system currently accessed.
The full path for the HP-UX loader is \EFI\HPUX\HPUX.EFIand it should be on the device
you are accessing.
3. At the EFI Shell environment, use the bcfgcommand to manage the boot options list.
The bcfgcommand includes the following options for managing the boot options list:
• bcfg boot dump— Display all items in the boot options list for the server.
• bcfg boot rm # — Remove the item number specified by # from the boot options
list.
• bcfg boot mv #a #b — Move the item number specified by #a to the position specified
by #b in the boot options list.
• bcfg boot add # file.efi "Description"— Add a new boot option to the position in
the boot options list specified by #. The new boot option references file.efi and is listed
with the title specified by Description.
For example, bcfg boot add 1 \EFI\HPUX\HPUX.EFI "HP-UX 11i"adds an
HP-UX 11i item as the first entry in the boot options list.
For details, see the help bcfgcommand.
4. Exit the console and iLO interfaces if you are finished using them.
To exit the server console and return to the iLO MP Main Menu, press Ctrl+B. To exit iLO,
enter Xat the Main Menu.
Standard HP-UX Booting
Use either of the following procedures to boot HP-UX:
•
•
Procedure B-2 Booting HP-UX (EFI Boot Manager)
From the EFI Boot Manager Menu, choose an item from the boot options list to boot HP-UX.
1. Access the EFI Boot Manager Menu for the server on which you want to boot HP-UX.
a. To access the server console, log in to iLO and enter CO.
b. When accessing the console, confirm that you are at the EFI Boot Manager menu (the
main EFI menu). If you are at another EFI menu, choose Exit from the submenus until
you return to the screen with the EFI Boot Manager heading.
c. To access the EFI Shell environment, choose EFI Shell from the EFI Boot Manager menu.
2. At the EFI Boot Manager menu, choose an item from the boot options list.
Each item in the boot options list references a specific boot device and provides a specific
set of boot options or arguments you use when booting the device.
3. Press Enter to initiate booting using the chosen boot option.
4. Exit the console and iLO MP interfaces when finished using them.
To exit the server console and return to the iLO MP Main Menu, press Ctrl+B. To exit the
iLO MP, enter Xat the Main Menu.

Procedure B-3 Booting HP-UX (EFI Shell)
From the EFI Shell environment, boot HP-UX on a device by first accessing the EFI System
Partition (for example fs0:) for the root device, then entering HPUXto initiate the loader.
1. Access the EFI Shell environment for the server on which you want to boot HP-UX.
a. To access the server console, log in to iLO and enter CO.
b. When accessing the console, confirm that you are at the EFI Boot Manager menu (the
main EFI menu). If you are at another EFI menu, choose Exit from the submenus until
you return to the screen with the EFI Boot Manager heading.
c. To access the EFI Shell environment, choose EFI Shell from the EFI Boot Manager menu.
2. At the EFI Shell environment, issue the mapcommand to list all currently mapped bootable
devices.
The bootable file systems of interest typically are listed as fs0:, fs1:, and so on.
3. Access the EFI System Partition (fsX:where X is the file system number) for the device
from which you want to boot HP-UX.
For example, enter fs2:to access the EFI System Partition for the bootable file system
number 2. The EFI Shell prompt changes to reflect the file system currently accessed.
The file system number might change each time it is mapped (for example, when the server
boots, or when the map -rcommand is issued).
4. When accessing the EFI System Partition for the desired boot device, issue the HPUXcommand
to initiate the HPUX.EFIloader on the device you are accessing.
The full path for the loader is \EFI\HPUX\HPUX.EFI. When initiated, the loader references
the \EFI\HPUX\AUTOfile and proceeds to boot HP-UX using the default boot behavior
specified in the AUTOfile.
You have 10 seconds to interrupt the automatic booting of the default boot behavior. Pressing
any key during this 10-second period stops the HP-UX boot process and enables you to
interact with the HPUX.EFIloader. To exit the loader (the HPUX>prompt) enter exit(this
returns you to the EFI Shell).
To boot the HP-UX operating system, do not enter anything during the 10-second period
given for stopping at the HPUX.EFIloader.

Integrity servers, and procedures for adding HP OpenVMS to the boot options list.
•
•
•
To boot HP OpenVMS on an entry-class HP Integrity server, see “Booting HP OpenVMS”
Adding HP OpenVMS to the Boot Options List
On HP Integrity servers, you can use the following procedures to manage boot options list entries
for HP OpenVMS.
You can add the \efi\vms\vms_loader.efiloader to the boot options list from the EFI Shell
or EFI Boot Configuration Menu (or in some versions of EFI, the Boot Option Maintenance Menu).
NOTE: On HP Integrity servers, the operating system installer automatically adds an entry to
the boot options list.
Adding an HP OpenVMS Boot Option
This procedure adds an HP OpenVMS item to the boot options list from the EFI Shell.
To add an HP OpenVMS boot option when logged in to OpenVMS, use the
@SYS$MANAGER:BOOT_OPTIONS.COMcommand.
1. Access the EFI Shell environment.
a. To access the server console, log in to iLO and enter CO.
b. When accessing the console, confirm that you are at the EFI Boot Manager menu (the
main EFI menu). If you are at another EFI menu, choose Exit from the submenus until
you return to the screen with the EFI Boot Manager heading.
c. To access the EFI Shell environment, choose EFI Shell from the EFI Boot Manager menu.
2. Access the EFI System Partition (fsX:where X is the file system number) for the device
from which you want to boot HP OpenVMS.
For example, enter fs2:to access the EFI System Partition for the bootable file system
number 2. The EFI Shell prompt changes to reflect the file system currently accessed.
The full path for the HP OpenVMS loader is \efi\vms\vms_loader.efiand it should
be on the device you are accessing.
3. At the EFI Shell environment, use the bcfgcommand to manage the boot options list.
You can also accomplish this step by using the \efi\vms\vms_bcfg.efiand
\efi\vms\vms_show.efiutilities, which are available on the EFI System Partition for
HP OpenVMS. Both vms_bcfgand vms_showare unique utilities for OpenVMS I64. The
vms_bcfgutility differs from the bcfgEFI command in that vms_bcfgenables you to
specify boot devices using VMS-style device names.
The bcfgcommand includes the following options for managing the boot options list:
• bcfg boot dump— Displays all items in the boot options list for the server.
• bcfg boot rm # — Removes the item number specified by # from the boot options
list.

If needed, you can specify the loader’s full path by entering \efi\SuSE\eliloat the EFI
Shell command prompt.
4. Allow the ELILO.EFIloader to proceed with booting the SuSE Linux kernel.
By default, the ELILO.EFIloader boots the kernel image and options specified by the
default item in the elilo.conffile.
To interact with the ELILO.EFIloader, interrupt the boot process (for example, enter a
space) at the ELILO bootprompt. To exit the loader use the exitcommand.
Shutting Down Linux
Use the shutdowncommand to shut down Red Hat Enterprise Linux or SuSE Linux Enterprise
Server.
The Red Hat Enterprise Linux and SuSE Linux Enterprise Server shutdowncommand has the
following options:
-h
Halts (powers off) after shutdown.
Use the PCcommand at the iLO MP Command menu to manually power on or power
off server hardware, as needed.
-r
Reboots after shutdown.
-c
Cancels an already running shutdown.
time
When to shut down. (Required.) You can specify time in the following ways:
•
Absolute time in the format hh:mm, in which hh is the hour (one or two digits) and
mm is the minute of the hour (two digits).
•
•
Number of minutes to wait in the format +m, in which m is the number of minutes.
To immediately shut down, use the nowcommand; this is equivalent to using +0
to wait zero minutes.
See the shutdown(8) Linux manpage. Also see the Linux manpage for the poweroffcommand.
1. From the command line for Red Hat Enterprise Linux or SuSE Linux Enterprise Server, issue
the shutdowncommand to shut down the operating system.
2. Log in to Linux running on the server you want to shut down.
3. Issue the shutdowncommand with the desired command-line options, and include the
required time argument to specify when the operating system shutdown is to occur.
For example, shutdown -r +20shuts down and reboots the server in 20 minutes.

C Utilities
This appendix describes the utilities that are part of the server. These include the EFI Boot
Manager, and Extensible Firmware Interface Pre-OS System Environment (EFI/POSSE).
Extensible Firmware Interface Boot Manager
EFI is an operating system and platform-independent boot and pre-boot interface. EFI resides
between the operating system and platform firmware. This allows the operating system to boot
without having details about the underlying hardware and firmware. EFI supports boot devices;
uses a flat memory model; and hides platform and firmware details from the operating system.
NOTE: EFI and POSSE are similar. EFI is an Intel specification. POSSE is the HP implementation
that helps HP support.
EFI consolidates boot utilities similar to those found in PA-RISC based servers, such as the Boot
Console Handler (BCH), and platform firmware into a single platform firmware. EFI enables the
selection of any EFI OS loader from any boot medium that is supported by EFI boot services. An
EFI OS loader supports multiple options on the user interface.
EFI supports booting from media that contain an EFI OS loader or an EFI-defined system partition.
An EFI-defined system partition is required by EFI to boot from a block device.
Figure C-1 EFI Boot Sequence
The EFI Boot Manager loads EFI applications (including operating system operating system first
stage loader) and EFI drivers from an EFI-defined file system or image loading service. Nonvolatile
RAM (NVRAM) variables point to the file to be loaded. These variables contain application-specific
data that is passed directly to the EFI application. EFI variables provides system firmware with
a boot menu that points to all the operating systems, even multiple versions of the same operating
systems.
The EFI Boot Manager enables you to control the server’s booting environment. Depending on
boot option configuration after the server is powered up, the Boot Manager presents you with
Extensible Firmware Interface Boot Manager 141

different ways to bring up the system. For example, you can boot to the EFI Shell, to an operating
system located on the network or residing on media in the server, or the EFI Boot Maintenance
menu.
The following options are available in the EFI Boot Manager menu
•
Boot from a File—Automatically adds EFI applications as boot options or enables you to
boot from a specific file. When you select this option, the system searches for an EFI directory.
If the EFI directory is found, then it looks in each of the subdirectories below EFI. In each
of those subdirectories, it looks for the first file that is an executable EFI application. Each
of the EFI applications that meet this criterion can be automatically added as a boot option.
In addition, legacy boot options for A: and C: are also added if those devices are present.
You can also launch a specific application without adding it as a boot option. In this case,
the EFI Boot Manager searches the root directories and the \EFI\TOOLSdirectories of all
of the EFI system partitions present in the system for the specified EFI application.
•
Add a Boot Option—Adds a boot option to the EFI Boot Manager. Specify the boot option
by providing the name of the EFI application. You can also provide either ASCII or UNICODE
arguments. Using the EFI application name and any options, the EFI Boot Manager searches
for the executable file in the same directories as the Boot from a File option. When the file
is found, it is executed.
•
•
Delete Boot Options—Deletes a specific boot option or all boot options.
Change Boot Order—Controls the relative order in which the EFI Boot Manager attempts
to execute boot options. For help on the control key sequences, see the help menu.
•
•
Manage BootNext Setting—Selects a boot option to use only once (the next boot operation).
Set Automatic Boot Timeout—Defines the value in seconds before the system automatically
boots without user intervention. Set this value to zero to disable the timeout feature.
•
Exit—Returns control to the EFI Boot Manager menu. This displays the active boot devices,
including a possible integrated shell (if the implementation is so constructed).

EFI/POSSE Commands
This section describes the EFI/POSSE commands developed for the server.
NOTE: EFI/POSSE are similar. EFI is an Intel specification, whereas POSSE is the HP
implementation that helps HP support.
help
Provides information on the EFI Shell commands. It also has an additional feature to help those
familiar with the BCH menus of PA-RISC servers to adjust to the equivalent functions in EFI.
Syntax
help [-b] <category>
help [-b] <cmd>
help [-b] bch <bchmenu> <bchcmd>
Parameters
-b
Enable page breaking
category
cmd
bch
bchmenu
bchcmd
Category of commands to view help on commands
Shell command name on which to provide verbose information
Display the list of BCH commands and their corresponding EFI
BCH menu name taken from the top level of the BCH menu
BCH command on which to display information
Operation
If help is initiated with no parameters, it displays a list of shell command categories. To list all
of the commands within a category, enter help <category>. If help is issued with the -b
option, any output longer than one page pauses after each page displays. If a shell command
name is used as a parameter, verbose help displays for that command.
If you issue the helpcommand with the bchoption, it displays a list of BCH commands and
their corresponding EFI/POSSE commands. It instructs you to repeat the command line followed
by a menu name for more information on that menu. If you issue helpwithin the bchoption
and a menu name, it displays a list of commands that appear under that BCH menu. You can
then issue helpfollowed by bch, the menu name, and a BCH command name to display
information about that command. This command points you to the EFI command that has
replaced that BCH functionality, or informs the user that the functionality no longer exists.
Alternately, enter helpfollowed by bchand a BCH command name to go straight to that
command.

baud
Sets the baud rate and communication settings for a universal asynchronous receiver-transmitter
(UART).
Syntax
baud <index> <baudrate>
Parameters
<index> 0 through the total number of UARTS minus one
<baudrate> baud rate.
Operation
Use this command to change the speed for a UART in the system. This command works for all
UARTs visible to EFI/POSSE. If the UART is part of processor dependent hardware (PDH) space
and is initialized by the core firmware, this command communicates the settings to core firmware
so the UART can be initialized with the new settings on the next boot. System default is 9600
baud.

In this example, a single SCSI interface is listed.
For each channel of the SCSI board, note certain information. For example, look at the
information for the SCSI interface. For each channel of this SCSI interface, note the following
information:
• Bus #: Identifies the bus the device is on. This is the same for both channels. In this
example, the bus number is 20.
• Dev #: Identifies the ID the device is assigned on the bus. This is the same for both
channels. In this example, the SCSI interface is device 01.
• Fnc #: Identifies the channel of the device (00for channel A, 01for channel B, and so
on). In this example, because the SCSI interface has two channels, one channel is 00
and the other is 01.
• Vendor ID: Shows the device vendor ID. This is the same for both channels. For all
SCSI interfaces, the ID is 0x1000.
• Device ID: Shows the device ID. This is the same for both channels. In this example,
the SCSI interface the ID is 0x0030.
• Slot #: Identifies the physical card slot in the system where the SCSI interface is
installed. This is the same for both channels. In this example, the SCSI interface is on
the system board, therefore the slot number is xx.
• Path: Identifies the device path. In this example, the SCSI interface path is
Acpi(HWP0002,200)/Pci(1|0)for channel A and Acpi(HWP0002,200)/Pci(1|1)
for channel B.
Using the SCSI interface information from this example, the combined information that tells
you this is a SCSI interface are the following (shown in bold, for highlighting purposes):
00 20 01 00 0x1000 0x0030 xx Acpi(HWP0002,200)/Pci(1|0)
00 20 01 01 0x1000 0x0030 xx Acpi(HWP0002,200)/Pci(1|1)
The vendor (0x1000) and device (0x0030) are the IDs for a SCSI interface. Of the devices with
those IDs, this device has two channels (Fnc # of 00 immediately followed by Fnc # of 01).
Specifying SCSI Parameters 163
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
Also, this SCSI interface has a non-numeric (XX) slot # indicating that it is on the system
board.
2. From the EFI Shell prompt, enter the following command to obtain the controller handle
for the SCSI interface:

iLO MP
The Integrated Lights-Out management processor (iLO MP) for entry-level Integrity servers is
an autonomous management subsystem embedded directly on the server. It is the foundation
of the server’s High Availability (HA), embedded server, and fault management. It also provides
system administrators secure remote management capabilities regardless of server status or
location. The iLO MP is available whenever the system is connected to a power source, even if
the server main power switch is in the off position.
HP has used several different names over the years to describe the management functionality
embedded in their servers, including “the management processor.” In addition, HP uses the
term “management processor” to refer to any embedded microprocessor that manages a system.
Management processor is a descriptive term (such as “server”), and iLO, is a brand name, or
label (such as “Integrity”).
Remote access is the key to maximizing efficiency of administration and troubleshooting for
enterprise servers. Integrity servers have been designed so all administrative functions that can
be performed locally on the machine, can also be performed remotely. iLO enables remote access
to the operating system console, control over the server power and hardware reset functionality,
and works with the server to enable remote network booting through a variety of methods.
For complete information on the iLO MP, see the HP Integrity and HP 9000 iLO Operations Guide.
