Figure 11-1 Boot from SAN Configuration Dialog Box
The Boot from SAN Configuration dialog box varies for each boot type. Figure 11-1
depicts the boot from SAN configuration for the x86 type boot.
4. Verify the adapter address and boot version to make sure you configure the correct
adapter and that it has the boot code version you want.
5. From the Boot Type menu, select x86, EFIBoot or OpenBoot.
Note: x86 and OpenBoot share the same configuration memory space. You cannot
configure an adapter for both x86 and OpenBoot at the same time. When
you select one of these boot types and the configuration region is configured
for the other boot type, a message appears warning that making changes
overwrites the other boot-type configuration.
Note: If you modified the settings for the current boot type and then change to a
new boot type, a message appears telling you to save the current settings
before changing to the new boot type.
6. Check Enable Boot from SAN and for FC ports, set the Topology and Link Speed.
Note: Topology and link speed are not available for OneConnect adapters.
