Re: booting problem

Hi,
Please check /etc/rc.log file for any errors during startup.
Did you take a backup?

Re: booting problem

you may also want to set the DHCP entry DHCP_ENABLE to 0 in /etc/rc.config.d/netconf if this is DHCP related

Re: booting problem

Hi!
There is a problem with starting
a daemon. This condition would be caused by altering the script:

/sbin/init.d/hostname startup

Look at this script! Use last backup
to recover this script

Re: booting problem

About hostname script,
I run it, --> no error.

About DHCP, in /etc/rc.config.d/netconf,

the DHCP is "0" --> correctly. I used static ip.

About /etc/rc.log, I cannot find any error in this file.

Sorry, I need your more help.

Thanks for all what your do for me.

where is solution?

Re: booting problem

Hi,

it looks like your /etc/rc.config.d/netconf file is correct. There could still be an issue if you've got more than one interface: if so, you must have DHCP_ENABLED[index] set to 0 for all your interfaces...

Is your hostname set? If not, auto_parms will think that it's a first time boot, which may cause your problem.

The easiest way of insuring that the boot informations are correct would be to use set_parms to re-set your system properly: set_parms will give you all available options. set_parms ??p_address will let you reconfigure your IP, set_parms hostname will set the hostname, and set_parms initial will let you set all parameters.

You may want to look at the manpage for auto_parms, and at the "HP-UX System Administration tasks" doc, chapter Making Adjustments to your system:
http://docs.hp.com/hpux/onlinedocs/B2355-90672/B2355-90672.html

for more precise reference

Hope this helps,

Re: booting problem

Just to confirm,

You are saying that the system was booting fine until you reduced a lvol.

If this is true, which one? Can that have caused any corruption?
