1. From the EFI Boot Manager Menu, choose an item from the boot options list to boot Windows
using the chosen boot option.
2. Access the EFI Boot Manager Menu for the server on which you want to boot Windows.
Log in to the iLO 2 MP and enter CO to choose the system console.
When accessing the console, confirm that you are at the EFI Boot Manager Menu (the main
EFI menu). If you are at another EFI menu, choose the Exit option from the submenus until you
return to the screen with the EFI Boot Manager heading.
3. At the EFI Boot Manager Menu, choose an item from the boot options list.
Each item in the boot options list references a specific boot device and provides a specific set
of boot options or arguments to be used when booting the device.
4. Press Enter to initiate booting using the chosen boot option.
5. Once Windows begins loading, wait for the Special Administration Console (SAC) to become
available.
The SAC interface provides a text-based administration tool that is available from the system
console. For details see the SAC online help (enter ? at the SAC> prompt).

output shown here.
6. Exit the console and iLO 2 MP interfaces when finished using them.
Enter Ctrl-B to exit the console and return to the MP Main Menu. To exit the iLO 2 MP, enter
x at the Main Menu.
Shutting Down Microsoft Windows
Shut down the Windows operating system on HP Integrity servers by using the Start menu or the
shutdown command.
CAUTION: Do not shut down Windows using Special Administration Console (SAC) restart
or shutdown commands under normal circumstances.
Issuing restart or shutdown at the SAC> prompt causes the server to restart or shutdown
immediately and can result in the loss of data.
Instead use the Windows Start menu or the shutdown command to shut down gracefully.
To shut down Windows use either of the following methods.
• Choose Shut Down from the Start menu and choose either Restart or Shut down from the
pull-down menu.
The Restart menu item shuts down and restarts the server. The Shut down menu item shuts
down the server.
