    That is your hdisk. Probably should be written /dev/<ipldevice>

    Where ipldevice is where Boot logical volume resides.

    We'll be changing to a 64-bit kernel for Oracle 9.2 soon. I recieved
    some instructions from IBM and was just wondering about the 'ipldevice'
    after the bosboot command. Does anyone know what this does? I'm used to
    setting the boot image to a hdisk.

    Here are the instructions:

    To truly change the kernel to 64-bit, you need to be at the 5.1 or 5.2
    oslevel.

    From 32-bit to 64-bit:

    ln -sf /usr/lib/boot/unix_64 /unix
    ln -sf /usr/lib/boot/unix_64 /usr/lib/boot/unix
    lslv -m hd5
    bosboot -ad /dev/ipldevice

    shutdown -Fr

    -Darryl
