Procedure 5-59 Configuring Autoboot Options (BCH Menu)
From the BCH Menu, use the PATHFLAGS command at the BCH Configuration menu to set the
boot-time actions for an nPartition. The BCH Menu is available only on HP 9000 systems.
1. Access the BCH Main Menu for the nPartition whose autoboot options you want to configure.
Login to the service processor (MP or GSP) and enter CO to access the Console list. Select
the nPartition console. When accessing the console, confirm that you are at the BCH Main
Menu (the Main Menu: Enter command or menu> prompt). If at a BCH menu other
than the Main Menu, then enter MA to return to the BCH Main Menu.
2. Access the BCH Configuration menu by entering CO at the Main menu, and set the boot
action for each boot path, as desired, by using the PATHFLAGS command.
At the BCH Configuration menu, you can list the path flags (boot actions) for all boot path
variables by entering PATHFLAGS with no arguments.
To set the boot action for each of the boot paths, enter PATHFLAGS VAR action, where
VAR is the boot path variable (PRI, HAA, or ALT) and action is the boot action (0 for "go to
BCH", 1 for "boot, if fail go to BCH", 2 for "boot, if fail try next path", or 3 for "skip this path,
try next path").
For example, to configure an nPartition to boot from the PRI device or (if PRI fails to boot)
the HAA device, use the following two BCH Configuration commands: PATHFLAGS PRI
2 and PATHFLAGS HAA 1, as shown below.
Configuration Menu: Enter command > PATHFLAGS PRI 2
Primary Boot Path Action
Boot Actions:
Configuration Menu: Enter command > PATHFLAGS HAA 1
HA Alternate Boot Path Action
Boot Actions:
Configuration Menu: Enter command >
For other help in setting path flags, enter HELP PATHFLAGS at the BCH Configuration menu
prompt.
3. Exit the console and service processor interfaces if finished using them.
To exit the BCH environment type ^B (Control-B); this exits the nPartition console and
returns to the service processor Main Menu. To exit the service processor, type X at the Main
Menu.
Procedure 5-60 Configuring Autoboot Options (EFI Boot Manager)
From the EFI Boot Manager environment use the Boot Option Maintenance Set Auto Boot
TimeOut menu operation to configure an nPartitions autoboot setting. The EFI Boot Manager is
available only on HP Integrity systems.
1. Access the EFI Boot Manager menu for the nPartition whose autoboot options you want to
configure.
Login to the service processor (MP or GSP) and enter CO to access the Console list. Select
the nPartition console.
When accessing the console, confirm that you are at the EFI Boot Manager menu (the main
EFI menu). If at another EFI menu, select the Exit option from the sub-menus until you
return to the screen with the EFI Boot Manager heading.
2. Select the Boot Option Maintenance option from the main EFI Boot Manager menu.
Boot from this path.
If unsuccessful, go to next path.
Boot from this path.
If unsuccessful, go to BCH.
