To manage the boot options list for each server, use the EFI Shell, the EFI Boot Option
Maintenance Menu, or operating system utilities.
At the EFI Shell, use the
bcfg
command to support list and manage the boot options list
for HP-UX.
The EFI Boot Option Maintenance Menu provides the Add a Boot Option, Delete Boot
Option(s), and Change Boot Order menu items (use this method if you must add an EFI
Shell entry to the boot options list).
Operating system utilities for managing the boot options list include the HP-UX
setboot
command.
See
“Adding HP-UX to the Boot Options List” (page 73)
).

Autoboot Setting
The
autoboot
setting determines, at startup, whether a server automatically loads the first
item in the boot options list, or remains at the EFI Boot Manager menu. With autoboot enabled,
EFI loads the first item in the boot options list after a designated timeout period.
Configure the autoboot setting for an HP Integrity server using either the
autoboot
EFI Shell
command, or the Set Auto Boot Time Out menu item from the EFI Boot Configuration menu.
Examples of autoboot commands for HP-UX:
◦
Disable autoboot from the EFI Shell by issuing
autoboot off
◦
Enable autoboot with the default timeout value by issuing
autoboot on
◦
Enable autoboot with a timeout of 60 seconds by issuing the
autoboot time 60
◦
Set autoboot from HP-UX using
setboot
◦
Enable autoboot from HP-UX using
setboot -b on
◦
Disable autoboot using
setboot -b off
Examples of autoboot commands for Linux:
•
Disable autoboot from the EFI Shell by issuing
autoboot off
•
Enable autoboot with the default timeout value by issuing
autoboot on
•
Enable autoboot with a timeout of 60 seconds by issuing the
autoboot 60
•
Disable the automatic retries during autoboot by issuing
autoboot -nr 0
