Boot Device Priority

By default, the HP NetServer searches for bootable devices in the order shown below. CD-ROM Drive
Floppy Disk Drive
Embedded SCSI Controller, starting with SCSI ID 0
PCI Slots in the order 3, 2, and 1
On each controller, the server scans for a boot device starting at device ID 0 and works up from there. The
controller is always SCSI ID 7.

Accessory Boards

The HP NetServer LPr includes four PCI slots; one (over the system board) is taken by the Network Interface
Controller (NIC) but can be used by other small PCI boards.
Interrupt Sharing
In the LPr, PCI slot #3 and the embedded SCSI controller share the same interrupt line. The system is
capable of avoiding internal conflicts through interrupt sharing; however, interrupt sharing results in a small
performance loss as the operating system has to resolve which of the devices caused the interrupt before it
responds. Therefore, if the embedded SCSI controller is enabled, use the other PCI slots before using slot
#3.
NOTE
This boot order can be changed using the SETUP utility (press [F2] during the boot
process).
Adding a PCI-to-PCI bridge card to the HP NetServer may alter the server's boot
order. This boot order can be changed using the SETUP utility (press [F2] during the
boot process). Refer to Chapter 4, "Installing Mass Storage Devices," and see the
subsection, "Boot Device Priority."
