ENTRY_INIT Status = -4

[Veron_Le]

Hi all,

My system currently occur this problem ENTRY_INIT Status = -4, It failed to initialize and cannot boot up. After check in ITRC, it looks like a boot disk failure. Could you pls explain the steps to replace a bootdisk for MPE/iX system?

Thanks and appreciate all your helps,
Veron

Hi Veron

For HP-UX, you can replace a bad root disk follow these steps:

#vgcfgrestore -n /dev/vgXX /dev/rdsk/cxtxdx
#vgchange -a y /dev/vgXX
#vgsync /dev/vgxx
Replacing a bad BOOT disk with mirror:

#vgcfgrestore -n /dev/vgXX /dev/rdsk/cxtxdx
#vgchange -a y /dev/vgXX
#vgsync /dev/vgxx
#mkboot /dev/rdsk/cxtxdx
#mkboot -a "hpux -lq" /dev/rdsk/cxtxdx
#shutdown -yr 0

Goodluck!
Regard,
