What gives "model"?

Consider to close some of your threads for this problem and continue only 1.

[pedliz12]

hey what is the problem here?
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

[Torsten.]

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?

[pedliz12]

vparboot -p vpar5 -I 15.179.32.244,/opt/ignite/boot/Rel_B.11.11/WINSTALL
vparboot: Booting vpar5. Please wait...
# Failed to patch new partition's kernel
[MON] vpar5 has halted.

got this problem ?
what do i do

[Torsten.]

Did you watch the image restore process? When did you get the message? Is the archive taken from this vPar?

[pedliz12]

i am trying to restore a vpar image from another vpar in which I did a make_network
i exported the /opt/ignite/boot/Rel_B.11.11 image.

help

[Torsten.]

Was this vPar running on the same hardware?

At the beginning, you talked about 11.23, now 11.11 - you cannot mix.

What vPar version is running?

(you need to answer more of the questions, otherwise this will never end)

[Torsten.]

After reviewing some of your previous threads I guess you are trying to restore a vPar image taken from a Integrity to a PA-Risc based system or vice versa.

Please clarify.


Remember to post detailed info about the hardware and the vPar version (both - source and target system).

[pedliz12]

it is all risc based thre last problem is could not sst kernal boot path I do not know where to start.

[Torsten.]

Don't know where to start - Me too.
Because I don't know where you are.
You never told **any** details I asked for.
