Their is no such option you can set for HP SA to boot from certain logical drive, all HP's Smart array controller configuration is either done through ORCA [ Option Rom Configuration Utility ] - which is a offline method or through HP Array Configuration Utility [ offline - using Smart Start CD ] , ORCA is like a bios for the HP Smart array Controllers and their is no such option that you can use to make certain logical drive bootable.

Thanks.

I think I remember an advisory about a new feature - mark a logical drive as bootable in orca. Sorry, cannot find it right now ...
