Boot Console Handler
Setting the Auto Boot and Auto Search Flags
Setting the Auto Boot and Auto Search Flags
The
auto boot
and
auto search
flags are variables stored in the system’s non-volatile
memory. (Non-volatile memory retains its contents even after power is turned off.) If you
reset these flags to new values, the change takes effect the next time you reboot the
workstation.
To examine the state of the
auto boot
and
auto search
flags, type the following:
Configuration Menu: Enter command > auto [Enter]
If
auto boot
is set to
on
, the workstation automatically attempts to boot the operating
system when powered on. If
auto boot
is set to
off
, the workstation enters the boot
administration mode of the Boot Console Handler.
The state of the
auto search
flag determines how the workstation seeks a boot device
during autoboot. If
auto search
is set to
on
, the workstation will search for other boot
devices if the primary boot device is not available. If
auto search
is
off
, the workstation
will default to the boot administration mode if it can’t see the primary boot device.
To change the state of the
auto boot
or
auto search
flags, type either:
Configuration Menu: Enter command > auto boot
state
[Enter]
OR:
Configuration Menu: Enter command > auto search
state
[Enter]
where
state
is
on
or
off
.
