Enable or Disable Automatic Booting (OpenBoot)
Use this procedure to configure OpenBoot so that a host reset or power on either attempts to
boot automatically, or not. This change is permanent but only takes effect after a host reset.
1.
Obtain the ok prompt.
See one of these tasks:
■
“Obtain the OpenBoot Prompt (Oracle Solaris)” on page 39
■
“Obtain the OpenBoot Prompt (Oracle ILOM Web Interface)” on page 41
■
“Obtain the OpenBoot Prompt (Oracle ILOM CLI)” on page 40
2.
Set the OpenBoot auto-boot? parameter.
■
true – (Default) The host automatically attempts to boot from the devices specified in
boot-device.
■
false – The host does not automatically boot. You can boot manually.
For example:
ok setenv auto-boot? false
3.
Verify the change.
ok printenv auto-boot?
auto-boot? = false
4.
Reset the host.
ok reset-all
The host resets. After initialization, the host attempts to boot or not based on your
configuration.
