Manage BootNext Setting

Use this option to run the selected boot option immediately upon entering the main Boot Manager
menu. Select this option to boot an option that only needs to be booted once, without changing
any other setting in the main Boot Manager menu. This is a one-time operation and does not
change the permanent system boot settings.
This option displays the file systems that are on your system and lets you browse these file systems
for applications or drivers that are executable. Executable files end with the .efiextension. You
can also select remote boot (LAN) options that have been configured on the network.
To restore the default BootNext setting, select Reset BootNext Setting.
For example:
Manage BootNext setting. Select an Operation

Use this option to set the amount of time the system pauses before attempting to launch the first
item in the Boot Options list.

Interrupting the timeout during the countdown stops the Boot Manager from loading any boot
options automatically. If there is no countdown set, you must select boot options manually.
To set the auto boot timeout value, in seconds, select Set Timeout Value and enter the desired
value.
To disable the timeout function, select Delete/Disable Timeout.
NOTE: When this option is selected, the server does not automatically boot. The server stops at
the EFI boot menu and waits for user input.

Select Active Console Output Devices

Use this option to define the devices that display output from the system console. This list includes
the VGA monitor and a serial port for directing output to a terminal emulation package.
NOTE: Multiple consoles are not supported for HP-UX or Windows. Use the Smart Setup CD to
switch between COM A and the iLO 2 MP on Windows systems.
