Boot Device Selection Overview
The boot device is specified by the setting of an OpenBoot configuration variable
called
boot-device
. The default setting of this variable is
disk net
. Because of this
setting, the firmware first attempts to boot from the system hard drive, and if that
fails, from the on-board NET0 Gigabit Ethernet interface.
This procedure assumes that you are familiar with the OpenBoot firmware and that
you know how to enter the OpenBoot environment. For more information, see the
Sun SPARC Enterprise T5140 and T5240 Servers Administration Guide
.
Note –
The serial management port on the ILOM card is preconfigured as the default
system console port. For more information, see the
Sun SPARC Enterprise T5140 and
T5240 Servers Overview
.
If you want to boot from a network, you must connect the network interface to the
network.
