To take advantage of the high-availability features of the HBA boot
BIOS, you must configure additional Boot Port Name entries in the
BIOS for any additional SP ports from which you want the BIOS to
attempt to boot during system startup. Depending on the failover
software installed, follow the appropriate steps:
1. Reboot the host
When the QLogic BIOS banner (shown below) appears, press
CTRL–Q.
Different HBA models may display different banners. Be sure to select
CTRL-Q for the HBA you wish to configure.
