Answering NO to the boot path prompt initiates other prompts that query for the proper
path to the boot device. If you answer YES to the primary path prompt, the system displays
additional messages as it boots the processor and operating system.
Example 2-2 demonstrates a soft reset of the system with autoboot enabled, using console
and AP/GSP commands for a N class system. The reset screen may contain a different boot
path display and additional information, depending on the system you are using.
NOTE If you have a 99X system, you must transfer to the service processor before
you reset the system: CM> SP
If you have a 9X8LX or 9X8RX system, you need to type BO to boot the
system from the primary path.
