Hi

Not very helpful if the machine does not come up due to misconfigured
network....
@Keng
switch on the machine and press the ESC key util the boot menue appears.
enter at the boot prompt
boot pri ipl
The machine boots and comes with an prompt "ISL>". Here you enter
hpux -i1
(this makes the machine boot in init 1 with all filesystems mounted and
correct keyboard but no network activated). Here you might start sam as
John suggested.
Or do it manually. Here examples for a machine called hpserv09.
The config is without any DNS server or NIS
Be very careful with all files in /etc/rc.config.d !
As beginner do not create backupfiles in this directory!
Be very careful with double quotationmarks in the config files; they have
to be closed always in the same line!
/etc/rc.config.d/netconf
------------------------
HOSTNAME="hpserv09"
OPERATING_SYSTEM=HP-UX
LOOPBACK_ADDRESS=127.0.0.1
[...]
INTERFACE_NAME[0]=lan0
IP_ADDRESS[0]=192.168.1.9
SUBNET_MASK[0]=255.255.255.0
BROADCAST_ADDRESS[0]=""
LANCONFIG_ARGS[0]="ether"
DHCP_ENABLE[0]=0
[...]
/etc/hosts
----------
127.0.0.1 localhost loopback
192.168.1.9 hpserv09 hpserv09.
The file must have permission 644
/etc/nsswitch.conf
------------------
hosts: files
The file must have permission 644
if exists rename it to /etc/resolv.conf.old
This is the basic configuration. Further you should switch off potential
services which hang while the boot because they require an external
service:
/etc/rc.config.d/namesvrs
-------------------------
[...]
NIS_MASTER_SERVER=0
NIS_SLAVE_SERVER=0
NIS_CLIENT=0
[...]
/etc/rc.config.d/nfsconf
------------------------
[...]
NFS_CLIENT=0
[...]
Now enter run level 3
init 3
