You can specify the boot location where the initial operating system is loaded when a compute node is brought online.

A valid boot location must contain the portions of the operating system required to bootstrap the system. The following boot options are available:
  • NORMAL
  • SVC_PARTITION
  • PXE
  • CDROM
  • HDD
  • BIOS_SETUP
  • HDD_SAFE
Note:
  • For boot operations to work, the server must be onboarded to the inventory.
  • SVC_PARTITION and HDD SAFE boot options are not supported on HA810/HA820 G2 and HA805/ HA810/HA815/HA820/HA825/HA840 G3 server models.
  1. Browse to the compute node where you want to manage boot options.
  2. From the Action menu, select Set Boot Option.
  3. Select a boot option from the list, and then click Submit.
    Note: You can also set boot options from the Compute > Summary page.
