4. Exit the console and iLO 2 MP interfaces when finished using them.
a. Press Control-B to exit the system console and return to the MP Main Menu.
b. To exit the iLO 2 MP, enter X at the MP Main Menu.
Booting HP-UX From the EFI Shell
From the EFI Shell environment, to boot HP-UX on a device, follow these steps:
1. Access the EFI Shell environment for the system on which you want to boot HP-UX.
a. Log in to the iLO 2 MP and enter CO to select the system console.
b. Confirm that you are at the EFI Boot Manager menu. If you are at another EFI menu, select
Exit from the submenus until you return to the screen labeled EFI Boot Manager.
c. From the EFI Boot Manager menu, select the EFI Shell menu option to access the EFI Shell
environment.
2. At the EFI Shell environment, issue the map command to list all currently mapped bootable
devices.
The bootable file systems you need 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 can change each time it is mapped, for example, when the system
boots or when the map -r command is issued.
4. When accessing the EFI System Partition for the desired boot device, issue the HPUX command
to initiate the HPUX.EFI loader 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\AUTO file and proceeds to boot HP-UX using the default boot behavior
specified in the AUTO file.
You have 10 seconds to interrupt the automatic booting of the default boot behavior. Press
any key during this 10-second period to stop the HP-UX boot process and enables you to
interact with the HPUX.EFI loader.
a. To exit the loader (the HPUX> prompt) enter exit to return to the EFI Shell.
b. To boot the HP-UX operating system, do not enter anything during the 10-second period
given for stopping at the HPUX.EFI loader. For example:
Shell> map
