Output of vparefiutil

Hi All,

Kindly let me know if the EFi path entry in my output of vparefiutil command is correct.

# vparefiutil

Hardware path - EFI path mapping
================================

Hardware path : 0.0.0.2.0.6.0.0.0.0.0
EFI path : Acpi(HWP0002,PNP0A03,0)/Pci(2|0)/Scsi(Pun6,Lun0)/HD(Part1,SigAE203BA4-9B9F-11DD-8002-D6217B60E588)/\EFI\HPUX\HPUX.EFI

Hardware path : 1.0.0.2.0.6.0.0.0.0.0
EFI path : Acpi(HWP0002,PNP0A03,100)/Pci(2|0)/Scsi(Pun6,Lun0)/HD(Part1,Sig9DBECA1A-7FDA-11DB-8002-D6217B60E588)/\EFI\HPUX\HPUX.EFI

Hardware path : 0.0.6.1.0.8.0.0.0.0.0
EFI path : Acpi(HWP0002,PNP0A03,6)/Pci(1|0)/Scsi(Pun8,Lun0)/HD(Part1,SigD4C33E06-8151-11DB-8002-D6217B60E588)/\EFI\HPUX\HPUX.EFI

Hardware path : 1.0.6.1.0.8.0.0.0.0.0
EFI path : Acpi(HWP0002,PNP0A03,106)/Pci(1|0)/Scsi(Pun8,Lun0)/HD(Part1,Sig464A444C-8153-11DB-8002-D6217B60E588)/\EFI\HPUX\HPUX.EFI

I think there are two "0" missing in the (EFI Path) Acpi section for 1st and 3rd Hardware path and should be as below:

Acpi(HWP0002,PNP0A03,000)
instead of
Acpi(HWP0002,PNP0A03,0)
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Acpi(HWP0002,PNP0A03,006)
instead of
Acpi(HWP0002,PNP0A03,6)

As my vpars are not booting from primary path and is booting from alternate path.

Thanks!

Hi,
Efi addressses starts with ACPI(vendor,xxx)for processor based systems or ACPI(vendor,cxx) for cell-based systems.

For processor based systems xxx means LBA number. For cell based system c means cell number, xx means LBA.

If the left side of this xxx includes 0 than it is simply omited, this is normal behaviour.

If you change anything with your boot disk config yo can update your vpar db with:
# vparefiutil -u
