Configuring the Server Boot Order

Before You Begin

You must log in as a user with admin privileges to configure server boot order.


Procedure
Step 1  In the Navigation pane, click the Server tab.
Step 2  On the Server tab, click BIOS.

The BIOS page appears.

Step 3  In the Actions area, click Configure Boot Order.

A dialog box with boot order instructions appears.

Step 4  Review the instructions, and then click OK.

The Configure Boot Order dialog box displays.

Step 5  In the Configure Boot Order dialog box, update the following properties:
NameDescription

Device Types table

The server boot options. You can select one or more of the following:


  • HDD—Hard disk drive

  • FDD—Floppy disk drive

  • CDROM—Bootable CD-ROM

  • PXE—PXE boot

  • EFI—Extensible Firmware Interface

Add >

Moves the selected device type to the Boot Order table.

< Remove

Removes the selected device type from the Boot Order table.

Boot Order table

Displays the device types from which this server can boot, in the order in which the boot will be attempted.

Up

Moves the selected device type to a higher priority in the Boot Order table.

Down

Moves the selected device type to a lower priority in the Boot Order table.

Apply button

Saves the changes to the configured boot order or reapplies a previously configured boot order.

CIMC sends the configured boot order to the BIOS the next time the server is rebooted.

Cancel button

Closes the dialog box without saving any changes or reapplying the existing configuration.

If you select this option, the actual boot order will not be changed the next time the server is rebooted.

Step 6  Click Apply.

Additional device types may be appended to the actual boot order, depending on what devices you have connected to your server.

Select Compute -> BIOS -> Configure Boot Order -> configure boot order -> add HDD

save, reset, all good

I have some help for you if you need to upgrade some old Nexus switches. The Nexus 3048s are great DC caliber gig switches with proper front-to-back airflow. Used ones are really cheap and I think they make great management switches, which is what I’m using them for. If you have a Cisco Nexus 3048 with an older release of NX-OS on it, you need to go through several upgrades to get it to NX-OS v7. Here’s a walkthrough on the procedures. If you find you already on v6, for example, you can skip the 5.x step. Upon initial boot, you will need to abort Power-On Auto Provisioning. You will then be prompted for the admin password. Skip the basic configuration dialog. After a few moments, you will be able to login with the admin credentials you set during boot. I suggest downloading all the required
