Boot Console Handler Features
There are times when you want to interact directly with the J6000 workstation before it
boots the operating system. These workstations provide a menu-driven Boot Console
Handler that allows you to perform special tasks, display information, and set certain
system parameters, even if the operating system is unavailable.
Here are some of the things you can do:
Boot the workstation
Search for bootable media
Reset the workstation
Display and set boot paths
Display and set the monitor type
Display memory configuration information
Display the status of the I/O slots
Set Auto Boot, Auto Search, and Auto Start
Display and set Security mode
Set Fastboot
Display LAN information
Display system information
Display PIM information
Using Remote Power-On
Setting the Fan Speed
NOTE All of the tasks in the Boot Console Handler should be performed by a system
administrator with superuser (root) login permissions.
