next reset.
At the Oracle ILOM prompt, type:
-> set /HOST/bootmode state=value
where value is one of the following:
normal – At next reset, retains current NVRAM variable settings.
■
reset_nvram – At next reset, returns OpenBoot variables to default settings.

The config and script properties do not expire. Those two properties are cleared when the
server resets or when you clear them manually by setting value to "" ("" indicates an empty
script).
