Enabling Boot Support
NOTE: See your system documentation to ensure the proper boot order is selected in the system BIOS.
In a multiple controller environment, you can enable BIOS on multiple controllers. However, if you want to boot from a
specific controller, enable the BIOS on that controller and disable it on the other controllers. The system can then boot
from the BIOS-enabled controller. Perform the following steps to enable the controller BIOS:
1. Press <Ctrl> <N> to access Ctrl Mgmt menu screen.
2. Press <Tab> to move the cursor to Enable Controller BIOS in the Settings box.
3. Press the spacebar to select Enable Controller BIOS.
An X is displayed beside Enable Controller BIOS.
4. Press <Tab> to move the cursor to the Apply button, and then press <Enter> to apply the selection.
The controller BIOS is enabled.
To disable the controller BIOS, use the spacebar to de-select the Enable Controller BIOS control, and then select
Apply and press <Enter>.
