Re: Need Information on HP integrity Server boot process.
If using swinstall, the installer will tell you if a reboot is required.
About the boot:
1) switch the server on
2) selftest will run, EFI will be loaded
3) system will read boot path and the AUTO file, if configured, system will boot from specified disk
4) system will load the OS loader, this will load the kernel, OS will be startet
This is the general process in short version.
Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.

Re: Need Information on HP integrity Server boot process.
You can identify the patches which required reboot by the standerd icon (Monitor icon) from ITRC.
All PHKL patches required reboot.Most of the PHSS patches not required a reboot.

Re: Need Information on HP integrity Server boot process.
Inside of each patch is the README, in two places. You can use swlist to print it.
It is also there is the shar file.
You can also use swlist to check:
swlist -l product -a readme -s /tmp/PHCO_34668.depot
swlist -l fileset -a is_reboot -s $PWD/depot
