The AUTO file for automatic boot?
You may have to use the EFI function to copy the file so you can edit it.

Hi,

You can do

example

echo "boot /stand/vmunix -lq" >> /tmp/AUTO.lq

efi_cp -d /dev/disk/disk_s1 /tmp/AUTO.lq /EFI/HPUX/EFI

#efi_cp -d /dev/rdisk/disk2_p1 /tmp/auto /EFI/HPUX/AUTO

to check

#efi_cp -d /dev/rdisk/disk2_p1 -u /EFI/HPUX/AUTO /tmp/auto

from shell prompt

u will find the contents such as
boot vmunix -lq
to change

echo boot vmunix.prev >auto

Hi,
For PARISC servers,
To edit the AUTO file,
#mkboot -a hpux /dev/rdsk/c#t#d#

In place of hpux you can mention "hpux -lq" for autoboot without quorum enforced.

To check the contents of the AUTO file,
#lifcp /dev/rdsk/c#t#d#:AUTO -
