Re: single user mode in rx8640

Hi,

connect to the console of the system/nPar first. Let the machine boot from the boot device but stop the hpux loader process within the given time frame.
In the loader utility load the kernel using the single user argument:

> boot vmunix -is

Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.

Re: single user mode in rx8640

You need to be logged into the console and watch the server boot/reboot. Interupt the autoboot phase where it waits for 10 seconds.

enter the command to boot into single user mode

Type boot pri isl at the prompt.
At the ISL prompt:, type hpux -iS /stand/vmunix
