Set Auto Boot TimeOut
Use this option to set the amount of time the system pauses before attempting to launch the first item in the
Boot Options list.
For example:
Set Auto Boot Timeout. Select an Option
Set Timeout Value
Delete/Disable Timeout
Help
Exit
Interrupting the timeout during the countdown stops the Boot Manager from loading any boot options
automatically. If there is no countdown, boot options must be selected manually.
• To set the auto boot timeout value, in seconds, select Set Timeout Value and enter the desired value.
• To disable the timeout function, select Delete/Disable Timeout.
NOTE When this option is selected, the system does not automatically boot. The system stops at the
EFI boot menu and waits for user input.
Select Active Console Output Devices
Use this option to define the devices that display output from the system console. This list normally includes
the VGA monitor and a serial port for directing output to a terminal emulation package.
NOTE Multiple consoles are not supported for HP-UX or Windows (use the Smart Setup CD to switch
between COM A and the MP on Windows systems).
For example:
Select the Console Output Device(s)
Acpi(PNP0501,0)/Uart(9600 N81)/VenMsg(PcAnsi)
Acpi(PNP0501,0)/Uart(9600 N81)/VenMsg(Vt100)
* Acpi(PNP0501,0)/Uart(9600 N81)/VenMsg(Vt100+)
Acpi(PNP0501,0)/Uart(9600 N81)/VenMsg(VtUtf8)
Acpi(HWP0002,700)/Pci(1|1)/Uart(9600 N81)/VenMsg(PcAnsi)
Acpi(HWP0002,700)/Pci(1|1)/Uart(9600 N81)/VenMsg(Vt100)
* Acpi(HWP0002,700)/Pci(1|1)/Uart(9600 N81)/VenMsg(Vt100+)
Acpi(HWP0002,700)/Pci(1|1)/Uart(9600 N81)/VenMsg(VtUtf8)
* Acpi(HWP0002,700)/Pci(2|0)
* indicates a currently selected device.
This menu is identical to Console Error Devices. The server blade does not support different configurations
for Output and Error console. For correct operation:
• When changes are made to either Output or Error console menus, the identical change must be made in
both menus.
