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:

Name	Description
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.
