available in the system.
EFI Optimized Boot
Enabled
Disabled
If enabled, the BIOS only loads
modules required for booting
EFI-aware Operating Systems.
If this option is enabled, the system
will not boot successfully to a
non-EFI-aware OS.
Use Legacy Video
for EFI OS
Enabled
Disabled
If enabled, the BIOS uses the
legacy video ROM instead of the
EFI video ROM.
This option appears only when EFI
Optimized Boot is enabled.
Boot Option Retry
Enabled
Disabled
If enabled, this continually retries
non-EFI-based boot options
without waiting for user input.
This option is intended to keep
retrying for cases where the boot
devices could possibly be slow to
initially respond. For example, if the
device were “asleep” and did not
wake quickly enough. However, if
none of the devices in the Boot
Order ever responds, the BIOS will
continue to reboot indefinitely.
USB Boot Priority
Enabled
Disabled
If enabled, newly discovered
USB devices are moved to the
top of their boot device category.
If disabled, newly discovered
USB devices are moved to the
bottom of their boot device
category.
This option enables or disables the
“USB Reorder” functionality. USB
Boot Priority, if enabled, is intended
for the case where a user wants to
be able to plug in a USB device and
immediately boot to it, for example
in case of a maintenance or System
Administration operation. If a User
Password is installed, USB Boot
Priority action is suspended when a
User Password is installed.
Static Boot Ordering
Enabled
Disabled
[Disabled] - Devices removed
from the system are deleted from
Boot Order Tables.
[Enabled] - Devices removed
have positions in Boot Order
Tables retained for later
reinsertion.
When the option changes to
“Enabled” from “Disabled”, it will
enable Static Boot Ordering (SBO)
from the next boot onward, and also
the current Boot Order will be stored
as the SBO template.
When the option changes to
“Disabled” from “Enabled”, it will
disable SBO and the SBO template
will be cleared.
Otherwise it will retain the current
Enabled/Disabled state.
Reset Static Boot
Order
Yes
No Action
[Yes] Take snapshot of current
boot order to save as Static Boot
Order Template.
This option will allow you to save the
Boot Order list as the Static Boot
Order template without disabling
and re-enabling the Static Boot
Order option.
