Boot Menu - Hitachi Compute Blade 2000 User Manual

Boot menu

On the Boot menu, you can set the boot paths.
Figure 5-29: Boot menu
The boot devices are booted in the order (#n) set in the Boot Option (where n: 1, 2,
3).
Up to 4 boot paths can be set. Items to be set in this screen depend on the number
of devices connected.
When a boot device is not connected to the server blade,
built-in EFI Shell automatically starts. To return to the EFI
setup screen from EFI Shell, you need to perform the exit
command twice on EFI Shell. Once you perform the exit
command, EFI Shell starts again. Then perform the exit
command again.
 About boot paths (legacy boot and EFI boot)
Boot paths are categorized into two boot modes in the Compute Blade 2000. The
implemented boot processing depends on which mode you select.
The two Compute Blade 2000 boot modes are:
 Legacy booting (conventional mode and boot method)
 EFI booting (newly supported mode and boot method)
The boot mode is determined automatically according to the boot device selected as
Boot Option #1.
When Built-in Shell or UEFI:xxxxx is selected as Boot Option #1, EFI booting applies
and the legacy boot path will be ignored.
Note that when a boot device other than Built-in Shell or UEFI:xxxxx is selected as
Boot Option #1, the EFI boot path will be ignored.
