5 – Non-interactive Commands
Command Summary
SN0054614-00 F 5-11
A
To cause the OS to boot from the first target it finds with a LUN, select a boot port
name of 00-00-…00 (selectable boot); this applies only if the boot BIOS is
enabled.
To set a particular target as the boot device for a specific HBA, type the following
command:
# scli -e (<HBA Instance> | <HBA WWPN>) <Target WWNN> <Target
WWPN> <Target ID> <LUN ID>
SANsurfer FC HBA CLI checks all parameters to verify that the HBA, targets, and
LUNs are valid.
If you select an HBA with no target or a target with no LUN, SANsurfer FC HBA
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 5.3.24). Therefore, if the target is
persistently bound, its boot device entry must have the same target ID.
For all operating systems, if the HBA 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 HBA 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 type:
# scli -e (<HBA Instance> | <HBA WWPN>) (enable | 0 0 0)
To disable (delete) the boot device for a specific HBA, type:
# scli -e (<HBA Instance> | <HBA WWPN>) disable
NOTE:
Because x86 Solaris does not require the Target ID, the Solaris command is:
# scli -e (<HBA Instance> | <HBA WWPN>) <Target WWNN> <Target
WWPN> <LUN ID>
