Adding OpenVMS to the Boot Options List

NOTE:
If OpenVMS is already installed on the server blade, add OpenVMS to the boot options
list by using the command procedure SYS$MANAGER:BOOT_OPTIONS.COM, then following the
on-screen instructions.
1.
Access the UEFI Shell environment.
a.
Log in to iLO 3 for Integrity and enter CO to access the system console.
When accessing the console, confirm that you are at the UEFI Front Page.
If you are at another UEFI menu, then choose the Exit option or press X or x to exit the
menu. Exit until you return to the screen that lists the keys that can be pressed to launch
various Managers.
b.
Press S or s to launch the UEFI shell.
2.
Access the UEFI System Partition (fsX: where X is the file system number) for the device from
which you want to boot OpenVMS.
For example, enter fs2: to access the UEFI System Partition for the bootable file system
number 2. The UEFI Shell prompt changes to reflect the file system currently accessed.
The full path for the loader is \EFI\VMS\VMS_LOADER.EFI and it should be on the device
you are accessing.
3.
At the UEFI Shell environment, use the bcfg command to manage the boot options list.
The bcfg command includes the following options for managing the boot options list:
bcfg boot dump – Display all items in the boot options list for the server.
bcfg boot rm # – Remove the item number specified by # from the boot options list.
bcfg boot mv #a #b – Move the item number specified by #a to the position specified
by #b in the boot options list.
bcfg boot add # file.efi "Description" – Add a new boot option to the
position in the boot options list specified by #. The new boot option references file.efi
and is listed with the title specified by Description.
For example, bcfg boot add 1 \EFI\VMS\VMS_LOADER.EFI
adds an OpenVMS item as the first entry in the boot options list.
For more information, see the help bcfg command.
4.
Exit the console and iLO 3 MP interfaces.
5.
Press Ctrl–B to exit the system console and return to the MP Main Menu. To exit the MP Main
Menu, press X or x.
