Input
• —b <device> — Species the rst boot device must be used with -o. Use with-m <module> to specify for
an individual server, or with an -a for all servers.

• -o no/yes — Indicates if the server must start from the device once. Use this option with -b option.
Use with -m <module> to specify for an individual server, or with -a for all servers.
• -a — server/switch. Applies options to all modules present in the chassis of the given module type. Specify the
value as server or switch. Default value is server. Switches must support Ethernet Management.
• -u <username> — Indicates that the <password> is supplied for the root user on the server or switch.
Root is a constant parameter, the only value that is valid with the —u option.
• —m <module> — Species the server or switch you want to congure.
Legal values:
– server-<n>, where n=1–16
– server-<nx>, where n=1– 8; x = a,b,c,d (lower case)
– switch-<n>, where n=1– 6
• -p <password> — Species the password for the root user on the server or switch. For switches, valid
passwords are 6–32 ASCII characters in length, ranging in value 32–125 (decimal). For servers, valid passwords
are 1–20 ASCII characters in length, ranging in value 32–126 (decimal).
• -s <ipaddress> <subnet> <gateway> — Sets the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway for the
specied server.
– ipaddress — A string representing a valid IP address. For example, 192.168.0.20.
– subnet — A string representing a valid subnet mask. For example, 255.255.255.0.
– gateway — A string representing a valid gateway address. For example, 192.168.0.1.
