rebooting automatically

I have an RP7410 with 11.i and when I reboot the box it goes into a menu and waits for me to boot it. Isn't there a way to boot all the way up instead of waiting for a manual process.

Re: rebooting automatically

Use setboot -b on to enable autoboot.
See docs - http://docs.hp.com/en/B2355-90692/setboot.1M.html

Re: rebooting automatically

From this menu go to configuration menu and adjust the path flags (pf command).

Configuration Menu: Enter command > he pf

---- PATHFLAGS Help ----------------------------------------------------------

PATHFLAGS displays or sets the boot control flag for each boot path.
The boot control flag setting determines what action should be taken
when booting from the specified path and what to do should the boot
be unsuccessful.

PathFlags Display the boot path flag for each boot path
PathFlags Display the boot path flag for specified path
PathFlags Set the boot path flag for the specified path

= [PRI|HAA|ALT]
= 0 Go to BCH (Boot Console Handler)
1 Boot from this path. If unsuccessful, go to BCH
2 Boot from this path. If unsuccessful, go to next
path
3 Skip this path and go to next path

Path Order = PRIMARY -> HA ALTERNATE -> ALTERNATE -> BCH

Short Command for PathFlags: PF



From running hp-ux you can use "setboot" to enable autoboot.

Hope this helps!
