Boot Option Parameters
The designation, semi-volatile means that the parameter will be kept across system power cycles,
resets, system power on/off, and sleep state changes, but will not be preserved if the management
controller loses standby power or is cold reset. Parameters designated as semi-volatile are initialized
to 0’s upon controller power up or hard reset, unless otherwise specified.
IPMI allows software to use the boot initiator mailbox as a way for a remote application to pass
OEM parameters for additional selection of the boot process and direction of the startup of post-
boot software. If additional parameters are not included, the system boots the primary/first-
scanned device of the type specified.
