$UTILITIES/hpqlarep /S "${CONFIGDIR}/hba.ini
4.
Run the hplpcfg utility to enable or disable the EFI boot setting on HP Emulex HBAs.
The script writes this data to the hba-emulex.ini file.
$UTILITIES/hplpcfg /le "${CONFIGDIR}/hba-emulex.ini
When you select lsi, the raid1-lsi.sh script runs to create RAID1 to the LSI 1068
controller. This option is only available if there is a 1068 controller in the system. The disk
connected to the controller is converted to a single disk using RAID1.
If you maintain the repository structure suggested in this guide, you will not have to make any
changes in this script. If you set the sstk_action variable in the elilo.conf file, you will not
need to interact with the script (it will run silently) to execute the option you select
(readhwconfig or win).
You can edit the DEFAULT_MAIN_MENU_OPTION, INTERACTIVE, and WAIT_TIMEOUT variables
in the sstk.conf file as needed. For information, see

Edit windows-setup.sh

The windows-setup.sh script starts the Windows installation process after it partitions the
hard disk and copies operating system and OEM files into the appropriate partitions.
The script performs the following operations:
1.
The script creates four partitions: EFI System Partition (ESP), HP Service Partition (HPSP),
Microsoft Reserved Partition (MSR), and the Microsoft Data (MSDATA) partition.
2.
Formats these partitions.
3.
Copies the operating system files from the repository to the MSDATA partition.
4.
Copies the Windows setup loader (setupldr.efi) to the ESP partition.
5.
Copies the unattended.txt file to the winnt.sif file on the MSDATA partition.
6.
Creates a new boot option in the EFI boot manager which starts the Windows Setup process.
This option is called Windows Setup. On some cellular systems, the windows-setup.sh
script must set the ACPI mode to Windows in EFI mode, causing the system to reboot
and boot again to the SSTK boot entry. If the SSTK launcher (bootia64.efi) was run from
the EFI SHELL, after reboot it returns to the EFI SHELL, making it necessary to call the
launcher manually again to set the EFI mode to Windows. After the mode is set, the machine
reboots again and boots to the Windows Setup boot entry. This process requires the system
to be rebooted twice.
7.
Reboots the server.
The script requires the following user input:
Boot device
You must specify the device path of the disk on which the operating system is to be installed.
The script captures this data in the DISK variable. You can specify this value either in the
sstk.conf file or respond to a prompt during installation.
For example: DISK = /dev/cciss/c0d0
Boot controller
The boot controller Windows driver is automatically detected by SSTK. To overwrite the
driver used, you must specify the variable CONTROLLER in the sstk.conf file.
For example: CONTROLLER = "retail"
Partition sizes
The ESP and HPSP partitions have a fixed size of 100 MB and 400 MB respectively. The size
of the MSR partition depends on the size of the disk:
