[SKR_1]

Hi All,

I am getting below error on 11.31 Itanium server. Please help to resolv this issue.

[Torsten.]

Any changes made recently?

I would suggest to boot into LVM maintenance mode and export/import vg00.

[SKR_1]

Hi Torsten,

I have just installed two patches on system which dont need any reboot. Also i have changed two kernal parameters.

maxfiles-lim
ncsize

ncsize need the reboot of server, so i rebooted the server and now server is not coming up.

[Dennis Handly]

>have changed two kernel parameters: maxfiles_lim

How big was it and what is it now?

[SKR_1]

Before maxfiles_lim 16384
New Value set maxfiles_lim 63488

[Torsten.]

So I would try to boot the backup kernel now.

[SKR_1]

Even i am not able to boot machine in single user mode. I have not worked on LVM maintenace mode. Please advise.

Check the alternate kernel from
HPUX>ll

and try to boot the alternate kernel

HPUX>boot vmunix.prev â lm


BR,

Hi ,

Try to boot in lvm maintenance mode.

boot vmunix -lm will go to lvmmaitenance mode, If your kernal are OK.

Just try to fix lvlnboot.
Most probably, it is not able to find the swap, dump and all it says.

May be a problem with disk also.

Just try to boot in LM and check if every thing is there.

Regards,
Sooraj
