Selectable Boot Settings
The Selectable Boot Setting option opens the Selectable Boot Settings window
(Figure 9-5), from which you can select one or more remote Fibre Channel drives
to serve as a boot device. To preserve boot device specifications that you make,
you must also enable the Host Bus Adapter BIOS parameter, described in
Table 9-1. For information about configuring a server to boot from SAN, refer to
“Boot from SAN” on page 7-15.

Table 9-2 describes the selectable boot setting parameters.
Fibre Channel
Tape Support
Enables or disables FCP-2 recovery. Disable Fibre Channel Tape
Support if the adapter is connected to a storage subsystem and not
to a tape device. Most storage subsystems do not support sending
I/O from the same adapter to both a storage subsystem and a tape
device. The default is enabled.
