If you manage adapters on a remote host that is running a version of the OneCommand
Manager application that does not support boot from SAN, the Configure Boot button does not
appear.
•
One of the following FC or FCoE adapter drivers must be installed:
•
Storport Miniport or CNA driver for Windows
•
Emulex driver for Linux
•
Solaris emlxs (SFS) FCA Driver
•
VMware ESX 3.5 and 4.0
To configure boot from SAN:
1.
Select Host or Fabric view.
2.
In the discovery-tree, click the FC or FCoE adapter port on which you want to enable boot from
SAN.
3.
Select the Maintenance tab, check enable adapter boot and click Configure Boot. The Boot
from SAN Configuration dialog box appears.
Note: You can configure boot from SAN before boot by using the Emulex Boot BIOS setup
command line interface that runs during system startup. See the Emulex Boot BIOS
setup program documentation for details.
Note: The Configure Boot button is disabled if the Enable Adapter Boot checkbox is not
checked. If boot code is not present on the adapter, the Enable Adapter Boot
checkbox and Configure Boot button are not displayed on the Maintenance tab.
Note: For OneConnect adapters, boot is always enabled and cannot be disabled.
