EFI/POSSE Commands

This section describes the EFI/POSSE commands developed for the server.
NOTE: EFI and Pre-OS System Environment (POSSE) are similar. EFI is an Intel specification,
whereas POSSE is the HP implementation that aids HP support.

help

Provides information on the EFI Shell commands. It also has an additional feature to aid those
familiar with the BCH menus of PA-RISC servers to adjust to their equivalent functions in EFI.

Syntax

help [-b] <category>
help [-b] <cmd>
help [-b] bch <bchmenu> <bchcmd>

Parameters

-b
category
cmd
bch
bchmenu
bchcmd

Operation

If help is initiated with no parameters, it displays a list of shell command categories. To list all
of the commands within a category, enter help <category>. If help is issued with the -b
option, any output longer than one page pauses after each page displays. If a shell command
name is used as a parameter, verbose help displays for that command.
If you issue the help command with the bch option, it displays a list of BCH commands and
their corresponding EFI/POSSE commands. It instructs you to repeat the command line followed
