Selectable Boot Settings
This option enables you to select the node name from which you want to boot.
Once enabled, this option forces the system to boot on the selected FC hard disk,
ignoring any IDE hard disks attached to your system. If you disable this option,
the system looks for a boot device (as selected in the system BIOS). In disabled
mode, the Boot ID and Boot LUN parameters have no effect.
Some new system BIOS support selectable boot, which supersedes the Fast!UTIL
selectable boot setting. To boot from an FC hard disk attached to the HBA, select
the HBA Fibre Channel hard disk on the system BIOS.
Note:
nondisk devices.
Restore Default Settings

Raw NVRAM Data
This option displays the adapter's NVRAM contents in hexadecimal format. This
is a troubleshooting tool; you cannot modify the data.
