Rashid ,


Here it is :

# echo "boot_string/S" | adb /stand/vmunix /dev/kmem

This will tell you from which disk the system is booted from.



Cheers,

hi

Look in /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log, you can see HW path of disk used for boot ,for example :

Jul 10 13:54:10 server01 vmunix: Boot device's HP-UX HW path is: 0/1/1/0.1.0


Check with setboot -v for determine if pri or alt

If it is a vpar use this:

echo "boot_string/S" | adb /stand/vmunix /dev/kmem

and if it is Npar, then use this:

echo "boot_string/S" | adb /stand/vmunix /dev/mem.
