how to change VPMON autoexecute file

[Rainer von Bongartz]

I want to change the autoexecute file of my Vpar boot

currently it says

MON> getauto
hpux -lq (;0)/stand/vpmon

and I want it to change to
hpux -lq (;0)/stand/vpmon -all

to make it auto boot all Vpar's at system startup.

Any help on this task appreciated

Regards
Rainer

use the mkboot command to do this
example

mkboot -a "hpux /stand/vpmon -a" /dev/rdsk/bootdevicefilename

Rainer,

Take a look at the subsection(s) "Autobooting the Monitor and All Virtual Partitions" and "Simulating the AUTO File on a Virtual Partition" in the "Monitor and Shell Commands" section of "Installing and Managing HP-UX Virtual Partitions (vPars)":
