Troubleshooting
Boot Command Notations
The
BOOT
command supports the following three notations:
S
Mnemonic
S
PA–RISC I/O
S
Path number
Type
help scsi
or
help lan
for more information on the boot path parameters.
Here are examples of mnemonic notation:
S
BOOT
Return
with “no parameters” selects the primary boot path in stable
storage.
S
BOOT
with the
ALTERNATE
or
ALT
parameter selects the alternate boot
path in stable storage.
Here are examples of PA–RISC I/O notation:
S
BOOT
scsi
.<scsi_addr>.<scsi_lun> or
BOOT
2/0/1
.<scsi_addr>.<scsi_lun>
S
BOOT
lan
.<server_address>.<init_timeout>.<io_timeout>or
BOOT
2/0/2
.<server_address>.<init_timeout>.<io_timeout>
Here is an example of path number notation:
S
BOOT
P1
Return
attempts to boot from the second path indicated by the
SEARCH
command.
Supported Boot Paths
SCSI devices are bootable when connected to the SCSI port on the System card.
Diskless workstations can only boot from the LAN port on the System card.
