The BCH Main Menu is the first menu displayed when you enter the firmware user interface. The other menus available are listed in this menu. To view the commands available from this menu, enter DI (display). Access other menus by entering the name of the menu at the command prompt. From a given menu, you can run a command from any other menu by entering the menu name that is associated with the command, followed by the command. For example, to run the TI (time) command (in the COnfiguration menu) from the Main Menu, enter co ti. To see all available commands listed under their respective menus, enter HE (help) MA (main).

Boot Command To initiate the boot sequence from any menu in the interface, use the BO (boot) command. You can enter either a default or specified path to the boot device. This path must be the definition of a device, for example, FWSCSI.6.0 or PRI. The default is PRI. Path Command The PA (path) command displays or sets the current paths. Invoked with only one argument, PA displays the current path of the entity passed as argument. For example, path alt displays the current alternative boot path, and path pri fwscsi.6.0 sets up the primary boot path as the device attached to SCSI controller with ID 6 and LUN 0. You can also set and display the paths of console (graphics/serial) and keyboard. For example: Main Menu: Enter command or menu > pa Primary boot path: intscsia.1 0/1/1/0.1 0/01/01/0.1 (hex) 236 Utilities
