Terminal Mode Commands 67
SYS SET BOOT
XX YY ZZ AA BB
Sets the boot flags to direct a boot to the specified device following
the next IPMI command or action initiated reset or power-on.
XX…BB represent five hex-ASCII encoded bytes, which are the
boot flags parameter in the Boot Option Parameters.
Upon receiving this command, the BMC automatically sets the
valid bit in the boot options and sets all the Boot Initiator
Acknowledge data bits to 1b.
SYS SET
BOOTOPT XX
YY…NN
This is a text version of the IPMI Set System Boot Options
command. It allows any of the boot option parameters to be set,
not just the boot flags. XX YY…NN represent the hex-ASCII
encoding for the data bytes that are passed in the Set System Boot
Options request.
XX — Parameter valid.
[7] — 1b = Mark parameter invalid / locked.
0b = Mark parameter valid / unlocked.
[6:0] — Boot option parameter selector .
YY…NN — Boot Option Parameter Data.
Passing 0-bytes of parameter data allows the parameter valid bit to
be changed without affecting the present parameter setting.
