166 Execute an IPL
Execute an IPL
C AUTION The Ethernet connection between the HP Enterprise Fabric Connectivity
( EFC) Server and director is interrupted momentarily during an IPL.
An initial program load (IPL) is not intended for ordinary or casual use and should only be
performed if the active control processor (CTP) card is suspected to be faulty. This
operation resets the active CTP card (an IML resets both CTP cards). Do not use this
option unless directed by your support representative or if you need to reset a failed CTP
card.
If it is necessary for you to execute an IPL on the director, use the following steps:
1. Select IPL from the Maintenance menu.
A dialog box displays confirming the IPL.

2. Click Yes.
