Booting Itanium-based clients using the network

This section describes how to boot HP-UX on Itanium-based clients from an Ignite-UX server using the network.

See the "Preparing the client for installation " section for important notes.

1.Cycle the power (perform a cold reset) on the client to bring it to a known state.

Press Any Key to interrupt Autoboot

Next, you will need to enter exit at the prompt to invoke the extensible firmware interface (EFI) Boot Manager menu.

For detailed information regarding the boot sequence, see the HP-UX System Administrator’s Guide for HP-UX 11i v3, or Managing Systems and Workgroups: A Guide for HP-UX System Administrators, and the hardware documentation for your system.

During the boot sequence, status messages are displayed on the client console. Depending on what type of machine, server or workstation model, the EFI Boot Manager menu appears and looks similar to:

EFI Boot Manager ver 1.10 [14.60]

Please select a boot option

HP-UX Primary Boot: 0/2/2/0.0.0.0
