6–Fibre Channel Noninteractive Commands
-e (Boot Devices Configuration)

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)”
). 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?
For all operating systems, if the adapter already has boot devices selected and
they are the same as the ones in the command parameter or menu selection, the
following message appears:
The HBA already has that device selected as boot device.
To use selectable boot (the OS boots from the first target the BIOS finds) set the
<target wwpn>, <target wwnn>, and <lun id> inputs to all zeroes. For
example issue the following command:
# qaucli -pr fc -e (<hba instance> | <hba wwpn>) (enable | 0 0 0)
To disable (delete) the boot device for a specific adapter, issue the following
command:
# qaucli -pr fc -e (<hba instance> | <hba wwpn>) disable
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>
NOTE
The boot device setting option is not supported on Macintosh
®
PowerPC.
