Booting And Shutting Down Hp-Ux - HP Integrity rx2660 User's & Service Manual

The EFI Boot Configuration 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, and the HP OpenVMS @SYS$MANAGER:BOOT_OPTIONS.COM command.

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. 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 HP 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
