I am facing rp3440 server boot problem. Also unable to access BCH mode.
Processor is booting from the first available device.
To discontinue, press any key within 10 seconds.
I tried several times to discontinue by pressing any key but failed to access BCH mode.
finallay the below message showed
INIT: Command is respawning too rapidly.
Will try again in 5 minutes.
Check for possible errors.
id:ems4 "/etc/opt/resmon/lbin/p_client"
INIT: Command is respawning too rapidly.

Re: HP-UX does not boot
Go back to the BCH, yes, that's what your attachement says, you were in the GSP, and 'bo alt'.
Did you mirror your boot disks?
Your problem appears to be the /etc/inittab file, did you modifity this file?
If not, what did you change in /etc?
You can also boot to single user. You can also boot to the old kernel.

How I will access the BCH mode?

Re: HP-UX does not boot
Can you control b and get to the GSP menu like in your attachement?
When you see the 'discontinue' message, I believe you're still seeing firmware generated messages, and this would indicate a system or gsp board. I believe they are two separate boards, with the GSP piggy backing onto the system board.
If you can't get back to the GSP with the control b command then I'm assuming a HW failure.
However, I have never seen or heard nor can I find any reference to this 'can not access the BCH error'.

Re: HP-UX does not boot
Well, i think you are in maintenance mode or something where your VGs are not activated and you are trying to retrieve the information and getting those errors.
Try booting in single user mode and then try to mount your FS by activating all VGs and see if you have any bad disk in a particular VG which inhibits it from activating.
Regarding your first post, your error seems to come from /etc/inittab. Also, check for the same in that file.
