System Boot Options Commands
The IPMI system boot options commands allow you to control the boot process of a blade by
sending boot parameters to the blade’s BIOS. The BIOS interprets the sent boot parameters
and executes the boot process accordingly. Each boot parameter addresses a particular
functionality and consists of a sequence of one or more bytes. The IPMI specification assigns
numbers to boot parameters. Boot parameters 0 to 7 are standard parameters whose structure
and functionality is defined by the IPMI specification. The boot parameters 96 to 127 are OEM-
specific which can be used for different purposes.
When using the Get/Set System Boot Options commands, except for parameter 100, use the
response/request data fields with the Set Selector and the Block Selector set to 0x00. When
using the Get/Set System Boot Option for the parameter 100, the Set Selector and the Block
Selector have a specific meaning. For more details, see
System Boot Options Parameter #100
for details.
The following table lists boot properties that can be configured and their corresponding boot
parameter numbers.
