Howto configure boot device order on ILOM
To ensure the system can be installed using the DVD drive, the boot device order in the BIOS has to be configured correctly so that the DVD drive takes precedence over the internal hard drives.
1 Log into the ILOM.
2 Start the system if it is not already running:
> start /SYS
else reset the system:
> reset /SYS
3 Log onto the system’s console:
> start /SP/console
4 When prompted, press Esc 2 to enter setup.
5 Once the setup menu has loaded, navigate across to the Boot screen by using
the right arrow key.
6 Using the down arrow key, select the Boot Device Priority item and press
Enter.
7 Confirm that the item [CD/DVD] is higher in the list than the item [Hard Drive].
The order can be changed by selecting the relevant item and using the +/- keys
to move the item up or down in the list.
8 Once the order is correct, save any changes made by pressing Esc and then
navigate right to the Exit screen. Select the item Save Changes and Exit and
press Enter, then confirm the action by selecting Ok.
9 Return to the ILOM prompt by pressing Esc (.
