Using The Efi Shell - IBM Carrier Grade X3650 T User Manual

IBM® Carrier Grade Server X3650 T
7.1.1

Using the EFI Shell

If "Enter the EFI shell" is selected from the EFI Menu, the user is able to use EFI shell commands to
modify files directly in the SysCon environment and/or affect the execution of the SysCon feature.
Note that, upon entering the EFI shell in the example above, the directive "type 'startup here resume'
from the SysConRAMdisk:\ to restart SysCon" appears. This allows the user to restart the SysCon
feature execution from the root directory of any SysCon environment. Using the word "resume" will
prevent recreating a RAM disk if it is in use and reloading it with the SysCon feature. The RAM disk is
used to increase the performance of the SysCon feature with a slow USB connection. Currently the RAM
disk is not enabled because of performance improvements in other areas, therefore the word "resume" is
not needed when the RAM disk is not being used.
