EFI partitions

[M. FRANGEUL]

Hi !

I would like to know, what is the command for know the size of the EFI service partitions :
EFI, HPUX and HPSP on a HP-UX 11.23 OS ?

I have created a mirror system disk in the VG00, but when I test the alternate boot, I have the following message :

AUTOBOOTING...Could not open file vmunix to check for a directory
Could not open vmunix

loading failed

Here the result of the command lvlnboot :

lvlnboot -v
Boot Definitions for Volume Group /dev/vg00:
Physical Volumes belonging in Root Volume Group:
/dev/dsk/c3t0d0s2 (0/4/1/0.0.0.0.0) -- Boot Disk
/dev/dsk/c3t1d0s2 (0/4/1/0.0.0.1.0) -- Boot Disk
Boot: lvol1 on: /dev/dsk/c3t0d0s2
/dev/dsk/c3t1d0s2
Root: lvol3 on: /dev/dsk/c3t0d0s2
/dev/dsk/c3t1d0s2
Swap: lvol2 on: /dev/dsk/c3t0d0s2
/dev/dsk/c3t1d0s2
Dump: lvol2 on: /dev/dsk/c3t0d0s2, 0

Thank's a lot

I cannot see a relation between the error and the partition size.
Maybe you missed a step while mirroring or you did a step wrong.

Just check again.

Hi,

Have a look at this doc.

Hi!

With efi_ls -d /dev/rdsk/cXtXdXs1 or /dev/rdsk/cXtXdXs3 and pvdisplay -v /dev/rdsk/cXtXdXs2 to view the HP-UX partition (whole boot disk)

Regards;

Just look at the slices...

EFI is slice 1 - 511968 Kbytes.

try this

#more /tmp/partitionfile
3
EFI 500MB
HPUX 100%
HPSP 400MB

In this case EFI is 500MB,HPSP is 400MB
