failed prompted when boot

boot
:disk(0/0/2/0.2.0.0.0.0.;0)
Exec failed: Exec format error

ISL>

*********
what does this mean? Exec failed: Exec format error

[Bill McNAMARA_1]

it means that the boot area of your disk does not contain hpux - at least a bootable version.


Just for pleasure, what is the output of:

ISL> hpux ll

Later,

if you sto the boot sequence and run sea ipl you can know wich disk is bootable

Try doing "ls" at the ISL prompt to see what's available.

ISL>ll
ISL>hpux
ISL>hpux

boot successfully !

but question is i boot from the mirrored disk, i don't know whether i need to make mirror config one more time?

hi rambo

I think that it's better reconfigure you mirror again.

if you find the old question about it in this forum, you can know if you do all steps in right mode
