How to remotely change boot priority in Integrity servers?
For Power ON/OFF I can use SMASH commands over SSH, but the Integrity servers do not support changing the boot priority through SMASH. In Proliant servers we could run the command
set /system1/bootconfig1/bootsource5 bootorder=5
which is not supported in Integrity.
Could someone please suggest a method in which we can change the boot priority remotely on Integrity servers?

Re: How to remotely change boot priority in Integrity servers?
If running hp-ux, you can set the boot path order via "setboot" command.
Hope this helps!

Torsten.

Re: How to remotely change boot priority in Integrity servers?
For example, on HP-UX systems, the command is "setboot". It can be used to query existing settings, and to change them.

Re: How to remotely change boot priority in Integrity servers?
@Torsten: How can I change the boot priority using MP?
My exact requirement is to set the boot priority to PXE. This is possible in Proliant Servers using SMASH.
The 'setboot' command in HP-UX should be used locally on that server, but I have to do this remotely without any specific agent software running on that server.
Is there any documentation for MP capabilities and interfaces for Integrity servers?

Re: How to remotely change boot priority in Integrity servers?
All Integrities normally have a MP, there you can use the boot menu to order the boot entries (by moving them up/down).
Hope this helps!

Torsten.

Re: How to remotely change boot priority in Integrity servers?
I would like to perform this operation irrespective of the server model but which have an MP.
If there is no MP, this feature is not required.
Could you please tell me how you communicate with the MP which provides you a boot menu?

Re: How to remotely change boot priority in Integrity servers?
Connect to the iLO/MP; boot the system and use the appropriate boot menu.
I will search for a document, but it is a bit hard since it is moved away from docs.hp.com ...
Note: there are differences between the several MPs used in different server families.
Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.

Re: How to remotely change boot priority in Integrity servers?
But from the iLO perspective, I haven't found a boot menu nor an option to change the boot priority neither from the iLO UI, nor by using CPQLOCFG.EXE(ie HP XML scripts).
I have found another interface called SMASH to communicate with the MP, but the Integrity SMASH does not provide an option for changing the boot priority.
