Solution"Maintenance mode" is an old term used in reference to "Single User" mode as its assumed you are going to work on the OS.

Re: what is difference between "single user mode" and "maintenance mode"
"-lm
Boot the system in LVM maintenancemode, configure only the root volume,and then initiate single user mode."
Since you end up in single user mode anyway, I really don't see much difference.

Re: what is difference between "single user mode" and "maintenance mode"
In single user mode you cannot export the root VG which you can do only in the LVM miant mode.

Re: what is difference between "single user mode" and "maintenance mode"
Wrong, wrong, wrong.
"..mode as its assumed you are going to work on the OS..."
Correct.
In fact, under the 10 and 11 O/S you can not go from maintenance mode to run level 3 without risking corruption to the O/S file systems.
You must reboot from maintenance mode.
And this is the biggest difference.

Re: what is difference between "single user mode" and "maintenance mode"
Thanks for clarifying. I thought there had to be some (historical) difference but could not remember what it might be.

Re: what is difference between "single user mode" and "maintenance mode"
I agree that there are a good number of differences between booting "hpux -is" and "hpux -lm". However, in the authors question, he does not refer to *LMV* maintenance mode specifically. There are other operating systems that refer to single user mode as "maintenance mode", which is where why comparison to the two is as I put it. In general UNIX terms there isn't much difference. In HP-UX specific terms we know there is difference worth mentioning.

Re: what is difference between "single user mode" and "maintenance mode"
LVM maintenance mode (hpux -Im) will have only root VG (/dev/vg00) and start single user mode.
But single user mode will have all VGs.
Am i correct?
