You can accomplish this by doing the following. I hope this helps all.
1. #shutdown -h now
2. >>> boot -fi "genvmuinx" -fl s
3. #bcheckrc
At this time you need to check all devices old and new to besure they are
seen.
4. #scu show edit
5. #ifconfig -a
If all are not seen you will need to move controllers to get them all seen.
If all are seen then rebuild the kernel.
6. #doconfig
use default for kernel config file ( HOST-NAME )
replace config file " YES "
select " all above " for kernel options
correct " YES "
edit the config file " NO "
Move new kernel over old kernel and boot.
# mv /sys/host-name/vmunix /vmunix
# shutdown -r now
1. #shutdown -h now
2. >>> boot -fi "genvmuinx" -fl s
