HP-UX is a hardware path based operating system.  When it boots up it does a hardware detection.  It then compares the hardware that it detects with the hardware that is listed in /etc/ioconfig.  If new hardware is detected, it is assigned the next available configuration information in the proper hardware path.

rmsf - remove special files

insf - install special files

insf -C disk -e   ←- This command will re-install all of the device files for the class “disk”

lsdev   ←- Lists devices and drivers in the system

ioscan   ←- searches for all devices and displays their hardware path

ioscan -fnC disk  ←- searches for all devices of  class (C) disk

ioscan -fnH <LUN>  ←- searches for a LUN

last 2 digits of hardware path in the LUN in octal  (1/12/0/0.1.23)

A disk device will have a name in the following format:  c#t#d#

• c# is the card number
• t# is the target number
• d# is the LUN - this is normally 0 unless RAID is being utilized

scsictl -a /dev/rdsk/c?t?d?  ←- display control parameter information about the disk device

scsictl -a -m queue_depth=4 -m queue_depth /dev/rdsk/c?t?d?      ←- sets the queue depth

nohup /usr/sbin/pfds &  - starts process

pfs_mount -o xlat=unix /dev/dsk/c0t1d0 /cdrom        - mounts cdrom

1. pfs_umount -c OR
2. kill -9 pfs_mountd and kill -9 mountd

1. nohup /usr/sbin/pfs_mountd &
2. nohup /usr/sbin/pfsd

or ls /dev/fc* on older adapters (arbitrated loop)

fcmsutil /dev/fcms2 stat  –>  fcmsutil that shows status of fibre channel adapter

/etc/profile - main profile for all users

/etc/profile.env

export TMPDIR=/tmpsort

export TEMPDIR=/tmpsort

source a profile:    “. ./profile”

export PS1=$(hostname):'$PWD # '

This gives a prompt that has the hostname followed by the current directory, ending in the # (useful for root logins).

ioscan -fnkC lan   - shows ioscan information for device type “lan”

lanscan -i|awk '{print $1}'|xargs -i ifconfig {}   → does an ifconfig on all defined interfaces on that server

• set_parms ip_address
• Then supply ip address and subnet mask when prompted.  This process will require a reboot.

• cd rc.config.d
• vi netconf

ntpq -p   –> lists ntp peers and their time sync status

ntpq -p <server fqdn or ip address>  –> lists time sync status with that server (slightly different detail than ntpq -p)

• Copy this tar file to the destination server

• Extract this file:  “tar -xvf lp.tar”
• SAM –> Printers & Plotters –> LP Spooler –> Save/Restor Spooler Configuration

swinstall  –>  This will lauch the gui or 

swinstall -x <option> -x <option> -s <path to depot>  –>  This will still lauch the gui, but the parameters will be preselected.  This is use to allow selection of additional parameters that may not be selectable from the gui itself (such as the logging levels below)

• -x mount_all_filesystems=false
• -x logdetail=true
• -x loglevel=2

• To install a depot you must specify the complete path to the depot and the depot name.
