vparboot does not recognise flags

Got a problem which is very complex, but it requires that I do a LVM reapir on the root disk. Suffice to say that if I boot the VPAR with "vparboot -p vpar_1 -o lm" or vparboot -p vpar_1 -o is", the unit boots into run level 3. I cannot determine why this is happening.
ANy ideas.

Re: vparboot does not recognise flags

Quote your -o option, ie:

vparboot -p vpar_1 -o "-lm"


Can't recall if "-" is required -- you can quickly test. I am pretty positive I always had to quote the -o argument.

Prety sure now you need a -o "-lm" or -o "-is".

Ok I am pretty dumb on this one. Read the papaer manual and found the answer. Interestingly the hpux manual shows nothing.
