Press <Enter> to continue:
To cause the OS to boot from the first target it finds with a LUN, select a boot port
name of 00-00-…00 (selectable boot); this applies only if the boot BIOS is
enabled.
To set a specific target as the boot device for a specific adapter, issue the
following command:
qaucli -pr fc -e (<hba instance> | <hba wwpn>) <target wwnn>
<target wwpn> <target id> <lun id>
QConvergeConsole CLI checks all parameters to verify that the adapter, targets,
and LUNs are valid.
If you select an adapter with no target or a target with no LUN,
QConvergeConsole CLI shows an error message and aborts.
In Solaris SPARC, setting the target ID to the target of the boot-selected LUN is
equivalent to persistently binding the target (see “-p (Target Persistent Bindings)”
on page 74). Therefore, if the target is persistently bound, its boot device entry
must have the same target ID.
For all operating systems, if the adapter already has boot devices defined and
they are different from the ones in the command parameter or menu selection,
you are prompted to confirm the boot device selection:
The HBA already has a boot device(s) selected. Do you want to
replace it with the new one?
NOTE
Because x86 Solaris does not require the target ID, the Solaris command is:
qaucli -pr fc -e <hba instance>|<hba wwpn>
<target wwnn> <target wwpn> <lun id>
