Error using interactive boot

What is happening with COPYUTIL procedure because when i enter SEA command, it's no displaying list of all boot paths and if i enter BO P2(from CD support)command, so display in the console the following message:

Error : Is not a path

Thanks for any helps.

Check your SCSI ids on any external disks - do they conflict with any internal disks on the same channel ?

Re: Error using interactive boot

Julio,
First of all, COPYUTIL does not create bootable tapes. You need to restore the image copies with CPOYUTIL again. Even when this is an easy way it's very time consuming because copyutil writes everything on the disk to tape, not just usable data.
When your search command does not find a p2 you can't boot 'bo p2' because no hardware path is associated to variable p2
Which device do you miss in the search result? Your CD-drive? How is the missing device connected to the system?
There is no good troubleshooting with bad data
