Re: mkboot

mkboot -a "hpux" /dev/rdsk/c12t0d4
mkboot -a "hpux" /dev/rdsk/c12t0d3

This is making a boot entry to start the HPUX kernel.

mkboot -a "hpux /stand/vpmon -a"  /dev/rdsk/c12t0d4
mkboot -a "hpux /stand/vpmon -a" /dev/rdsk/c12t0d3

This is making a boot entry to start the VPMON (vPARS) on the host system and start all virtual machines automatically.


Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.
