which bootpath is the "active" bootpath?

Tim Killinger — Fri, 10 Sep 2010 12:24:45 GMT

on an hpux 11.11 box with a mirrored system disk set, how do I tell which boot path the box is currently booted from? setboot tells me which path is primary and which is alternate, but how do I know for sure which path it was last booted from?

Primary bootpath : 0/1/1/0.0.0
Alternate bootpath : 0/1/1/0.1.0

Autoboot is ON (enabled)
Autosearch is ON (enabled)

hi,

/stand/vmunix/dev/mem

/stand/vmunix /dev/mem

it must be space between.

wrong formated from forum.

Did you try to issue command:
lvlnboot -v

echo 'boot_string/s' | adb /stand/vmunix /dev/mem
boot_string:
boot_string: disk(0/1/1/0.0.0.0.0.0.0;0)/stand/vmunix

I thought I had last booted manually of path
0/1/1/0.1.0, but if this is correct, I guess I did not.

icgscnv1:/etc # setboot
Primary bootpath : 0/1/1/0.0.0
Alternate bootpath : 0/1/1/0.1.0

Autoboot is ON (enabled)
Autosearch is ON (enabled)
