I will close the other thread

[Torsten. · Accepted solution]

obviously wrong command syntax ...

Read the chapter "Using make_tape_recovery and Dual-media Boot" and tell us if you want to boot from tape or from an ignite server and if this system is PA-RISC or Integrity!

[pedliz12]

what doc should i read to resolve this?
also i want to boot from tape and also boot from the net_recovery image on the server.
It is a risc based machine. I want to go home pls help

What version of vPars are you running?
See the admin guide:

http://docs.hp.com/en/T1335-90073/T1335-90073.pdf

I assume you are running a supported version of vPars (A.04.03 or A.04.04 for 11.23).

For the tape boot:

Add the tape to the vPar:
# vparmodify -p winona2 -a io:1/0/14/0/0/4/0.5.0:TAPE

Make an archive:
# make_tape_recovery -A -a /dev/rmt/1mn

Boot from this tape:
winona1# vparboot -p winona2 -B TAPE

For ignite boot from server:

# vparboot -p winona2 -I ww.xx.yy.zz,/opt/ignite/boot/Rel_B.11.11/WINSTALL

Of course your ignite server must export this kernel, otherwise the client cannot find/read it.

[pedliz12]

what would be the syntax to export the kernal?
