Create a partition description file<\/p>\n
(Need to update the EFI and HPSP size below according to the other root disk partition\u2019s size)
\nThis examples is where the new disk is disk85. Applies only to HP-UX 11.31 with VxVM as boot drive manager.<\/p>\n
# vi \/tmp\/efipart<\/p>\n
3
\nEFI 500MB
\nHPUX 100%
\nHPSP 400MB<\/p>\n
Use the idisk(1M) command to partition the disk according to this file
\n# idisk -wf \/tmp\/efipart \/dev\/rdisk\/disk85<\/p>\n
Write EFI info to the EFI partition on the disk
\n# mkboot -e -l \/dev\/rdisk\/disk85<\/p>\n
Confirm the AUTO file entry is intact It should be\u00a0 “boot vmunix”
\n# efi_cp -d \/dev\/rdisk\/disk85_p1 -u \/EFI\/HPUX\/AUTO \/tmp\/efi; cat \/tmp\/efi<\/p>\n
If found any difference, edit \/tmp\/efi file\u00a0 as below to update the entry “boot vmunix”
\n#echo “boot vmunix ” > \/tmp\/efi<\/p>\n
Update auto file
\n#efi_cp -d \/dev\/rdisk\/disk85_p1 \/tmp\/efi \/EFI\/HPUX\/AUTO<\/p>\n
Confirm the AUTO file entry again, It should be\u00a0 “boot vmunix”
\n# efi_cp -d \/dev\/rdisk\/disk85_p1 -u \/EFI\/HPUX\/AUTO \/tmp\/efi; cat \/tmp\/efi<\/p>\n
