For more information regarding loading the OS with vMedia, see the vMedia Chapter of the HP
Integrity Integrated Lights-Out Management Processor Operations Guide.
NOTE: After the OS is loaded, make sure to save your nonvolatile memory settings to preserve
boot entries in case of blade failure.

Configuring system boot options

Boot Manager
Contains the list of boot options available. Ordinarily the boot options list includes the UEFI
Internal Shell and one or more operating system loaders.
To manage the boot options list for each server, use the UEFI Shell, the Boot Maintenance
Manager, or operating system utilities.
Autoboot setting
The autoboot setting determines whether a server automatically loads the first item in the
boot options list or remains at the UEFI Front Page menu. With autoboot enabled, UEFI loads
the first item in the boot options list after a designated timeout period.
Configure the autoboot setting for an HP Integrity server using either the autoboot UEFI Shell
command or the Set Time Out Value menu item from the Boot Maintenance Manager.
Examples of autoboot commands for HP-UX:
◦
Disable autoboot from the UEFI Shell by issuing autoboot off
◦
Enable autoboot with the default timeout value by issuing autoboot on
◦
Enable autoboot with a timeout of 60 seconds by issuing the autoboot 60
◦
Set autoboot from HP-UX using setboot
◦
Enable autoboot from HP-UX using setboot -b on
◦
Disable autoboot from HP-UX using setboot -b off
For more information on the autoboot command, enter help autoboot.
