Hi Venkat:

If you are not using NFS, then do this:

1) Edit /etc/rc.config.d/nfsconf and put'0' in the nfs server and client starts.

2) Rename the start and kill scripts from /sbin/rc2.d and rc3.d

Venkat,

Once you are in single user mode, disable both NFS_CLIENT and NFS_SERVER in your /etc/rc.config.d/nfsconf file. Also take out any NFS entries from /etc/fstab. You should be able to boot in multi user mode.

When the system boots up did you interrupt it (ESC key) which should bring to to ISL mode .. then "hpux -is" in ISL mode will bring it up in single-user-mode.

Hello,

If you are on console then you can skip this by pressing CTRL+SHIFT+PIPE ...(|) key.


And then go to /etc/rc.config.d and edit nfsconf file and change flag to zero infront NFS_CLIENT and NFS_SERVER and reboot again.

Goodluck,

In single user mode, vg00 should be activated and just do a ..
# mount -a
and
# resize
to resize your term

Now you should be able to vi any file.

What's the error you are getting..??

Try mounting your file system and then edit the file.

# mountall

then vi /etc/rc.config.d/nfsconf

Hi Venkat:

When system boots enter 'hpux -is' at the boot console menu; that will bring you the single user mode. What type error you get when you try to edit the file ? Try this in single user mode:

# mount -a
# vi /etc/rc.config.d/nfsconf

When you boot in single user mode vg00 will not be activated. So give vgchange -a y /dev/vg00. Then mount the /var /usr & /tmp. Then do a vi on /etc/fstab. Put a hash mark before the lines where it mounts from the other system. Then try to reboot.
