it seems your first attempt had a typo in it and the second, -u is not a valid option. On your third try everythin gseems to have worked properly. What's the problem?

Hello Rene, do you have a mirror disk on that system you can always boot from the mirro disk and resync the mirros.
if you are able to boot in single user mode as shown before run fsck on all FS before runnint init 1. Also I will suggest to reboot the system and see if it boots without any problems.
What errors do you get if the machine attemtps to boot normally.
Do you have a /stand/vmunix.OLD

Where in Caracas do you live I used to live near to Parque Central so many years go. and I used to work in La universidad Santa Maria.
si tu quieres enviame un e-mail ghost71@comcast.net

I tend to think along the same lines as Juan Leon.

Try breaking your bootup quorum, you might have a defective mirror disk.

> hpux -is lq

is boots to single user mode, lq leaves the quorom.

Re: hpux no start up

looks like your autostart flag has not been set for your boot disk.

when you are at the menu level where it says press any key in 10 seconds, do that and go to the menu

from now on type what is in double quotes but do NOT type the quotation marks themselves.

first set your primary disk to 0/0/2/0.2 by:

type "PATH PRIMARY 0/0/2/0.2" hit enter

then type "conf" hit enter.

this will take you to configuration menu

here type "auto boot on" hit enter.

it will verify the setting as

Autoboot: ON

then type "main" and hit enter to go to the main menu

To test if what you did is working power the server down and wait for 20 seconds and power it back up. It should boot automatically.

Hope this helps

I execute fsck an mount file systems

the Mirror (vg00) I resync volume groups in sigle user:

# vgsync vg00
Resynchronized logical volume "/dev/vg00/lvol1".
Resynchronized logical volume "/dev/vg00/lvol2".
Resynchronized logical volume "/dev/vg00/lvol3".
Resynchronized logical volume "/dev/vg00/lvol4".
Resynchronized logical volume "/dev/vg00/lvol5".
Resynchronized logical volume "/dev/vg00/lvol6".
Resynchronized logical volume "/dev/vg00/lvol7".
Resynchronized logical volume "/dev/vg00/lvol8".
Resynchronized logical volume "/dev/vg00/swap2".
Resynchronized logical volume "/dev/vg00/exports".
Resynchronized logical volume "/dev/vg00/oracle9i".
Resynchronized logical volume "/dev/vg00/lvol12".
Resynchronized volume group "vg00".

But when init 1 /init2 /init 3 the S.O no start the process

Re: hpux no start up

Mel Burslan — Wed, 20 Jul 2005 13:16:36 GMT

when you run command

init 3

what error do you get or what does the system do ?

Re: hpux no start up

Rene Mendez_4 — Wed, 20 Jul 2005 13:18:59 GMT

Hi

#init 3

INIT: New run level: 3
/sbin/bcheckrc:
Checking for LVM volume groups and Activating (if any exist)
Volume group "/dev/vg00" has been successfully changed.

And no startup demons

Juan M Leon — Wed, 20 Jul 2005 13:19:04 GMT

Are you trying to boot the machine from teh single user mode by running init 1.
What happen when you let the machine boot without entering in single user mode?

Re: hpux no start up

Rene Mendez_4 — Wed, 20 Jul 2005 13:27:39 GMT

When restart S.O the message is same:

/sbin/bcheckrc:
Checking for LVM volume groups and Activating (if any exist)
Volume group "/dev/vg00" has been successfully changed

Re: hpux no start up

Juan M Leon — Wed, 20 Jul 2005 13:35:08 GMT

Can you check your inittab file make sure that your init default is set to 3. Also check your rc directories and your /sbin/init.d make sure files and directories have executing permissions.

Hope it helps.

Re: hpux no start up

Juan M Leon — Wed, 20 Jul 2005 13:55:37 GMT

what about the /etc/rc.log any errors?
Does the syslog reports anything?

I am done for today. Hope you find the problem.

Re: hpux no start up

Mel Burslan — Wed, 20 Jul 2005 14:00:45 GMT

what is the output of this command saying :

ll -d /sbin/rc[0-9].d

you should see something like this :

dr-xr-xr-x 2 bin bin 1024 Jul 14 11:00 /sbin/rc0.d
dr-xr-xr-x 2 bin bin 2048 Jul 14 11:00 /sbin/rc1.d
dr-xr-xr-x 2 bin bin 3072 Jul 14 11:00 /sbin/rc2.d
dr-xr-xr-x 2 bin bin 1024 Jul 14 11:00 /sbin/rc3.d
dr-xr-xr-x 2 bin bin 96 Jul 14 11:00 /sbin/rc4.d

anyhow, post the output here so that we can eliminate another possibility.

Re: hpux no start up

Paul Brear_1 — Wed, 20 Jul 2005 23:47:14 GMT

The next commands after the bcheckrc is :
link::wait:/sbin/sh -c "/sbin/rm -f /dev/syscon; \
/sbin/ln /dev/systty /dev/syscon" >/dev/console 2>&1
cprt::bootwait:/sbin/cat /etc/copyright >/dev/syscon # legal req
sqnc::wait:/sbin/rc /dev/console 2>&1 # system init

which state they will wait until hey complete to move to the next command.
check the /sbin/rm command, the copyright files etc.
maybe enter a line in between each one with a echo statement stating that it got this far if the rc.log is not helping.
/etc/rc.log should show where you are getting too and point from there.
