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. When
autoboot
is enabled, EFI loads the first item in the boot options list after a designated timeout period.
Configure the
autoboot
setting for an Integrity server using either the
autoboot
EFI Shell
command, or the Set Auto Boot TimeOut menu item from the EFI Boot Configuration Menu.
For example:
To disable
autoboot
from the EFI Shell, enter:
autoboot off
To enable
autoboot
with the default timeout value, enter:
autoboot on
To enable
autoboot
with a timeout of 60 seconds, enter:
autoboot time 60
To set
autoboot
from HP-UX, enter:
setboot
To enable
autoboot
from HP-UX, enter:
setboot -b on
To disable
autoboot
, enter:
setboot -b off
