How to Set Fast IPL
If the Fast IPL flag is enabled, SystemGuard skips the extended POST. By default, the Fast
IPL flag is disabled; enabling it only lasts one reboot.
There are three ways to enable it: through the STAND-BY MENU in Stand-By mode, through
the MAINTENANCE MENU or by using AIX commands.
Setting Fast IPL from the Stand-By Menu
1. Set the System Key in Service.
2. Enter the STAND-BY MENU by entering sbb.
3. Enter 1 to select Set Flags.
4. Check the current status of the Fast IPL Flag. If it is disabled, enter 6 to toggle it to
enabled.
The Fast IPL flag is now enabled; the extended POST is not run when the system boots.
This saves several minutes.
The following information is contained on the SET FLAGS menu:
2-40
