SYSCFG 37
--devseq numerical list,
separated by
commas
or
list of device
names,
separated by
commas
Sets the hard-drive sequence for a
system. Without an argument, this
option displays the device list. The
argument must be formatted as a
comma-separated numerical list of
device index values. The list must be
within the bounds of the current boot
list. For example, the low and high
numbers must match. Systems that
use a numerical list for boot order
cannot be replicated.
Some systems allow the boot order to
be expressed as a list of device names.
Systems that support device names
also support replication of the boot
order through the output file option.
Device names are formatted as a
name.location.instance string, where
name is the name of the device,
location is either slot or embedded
(emb), and instance is the numerical
position of the device. Some device
name examples are shown below.
Systems that support a list of device
names for boot order can be
replicated.
