Shalom,

That is in the bios settings for the server, which works almost like a PC

Boot at console, hit the appropriate key at startup and you will see it.

If PSP for hpux is installed you can do this on the system management web page.

If there are things like external storage to which the rx2660 is expected to communicate, and they take longer to restart upon restoration of power than the rx2660, you may want to alter the autoboot timer in the EFI boot config screen(s) to get it to wait longer before continuing the autoboot at the EFI level. The idea would be to give the external storage/whatnot time to start.
