boot change {primary |
secondary | default}
If your configuration displays no pre-configured operating system boot
parameters, use the boot change command to edit appropriate fields.
• The primary operating system boot parameters are used in the first
attempt to boot the system.
• The secondary operating system boot parameters are used if the primary
operating system boot selection is not available.
• The default operating system boot parameters are used if the secondary
operating system boot parameter selection is not available. The default
parameters always reside on the internal flash device (flash:).
NOTE: These parameters, as well as other boot parameters, can be
modified in the run-time mode.
When you enter the boot change command, you are prompted for a
response.
• Enter a new parameter or press the ENTER key (carriage return) to accept the
default parameter.
• Enter . (period) to clear a field.
• Enter - (dash) to edit a field above the current cursor position.
NOTE: When you enter a new parameter that extends beyond 80
characters, you cannot use the BACKSPACE key to correct any mistakes. If you
make a mistake, you must re-enter the parameter.
