The Boot Console Interface

Displaying and Setting Paths

The paths are displayed in Mnemonic Style Notation, as shown in Table 31.

Table 31	Mnemonic Style Notation
	I/O Type	Specification Format
	Built-in UWSCSI	fwsci.scsi_address.logical_unit_number
	Built-in FWSCSI	fwsci.scsi_address.logical_unit_number
	Built-in SCSI	sescsi.scsi_address.logical_unit_number
	Optional	gscn.scsi_address.logical_unit_number
	Built-in LAN	lan.server_address.init_timeout.io_timeout

To display the current setting for a particular system path, follow the direc- tions in “Accessing the Boot Console Interface” earlier in this appendix, and then type the following at the prompt:

Main Menu: Enter command > path path_type where path_type is one of the path types listed in Table 30.

For example, to get the path to the primary boot device, follow the directions in “Accessing the Boot Console Interface” earlier in this chapter, and then type the following at the prompt:

Main Menu: Enter command > path primary

To set a system path to a new value, follow the directions in “Accessing the Boot Console Interface” earlier in this chapter, and then type the following at the prompt:

Main Menu: Enter command > path path_type path

where path_type is one of the path types listed in Table 30 and path is the specification of the path in Mnemonic Style Notation (as described in Table 31). For example, to set the primary boot path to a SCSI disk with an ID of 6.0, follow the directions in “Accessing the Boot Console Interface” earlier in this appendix, and then type the following at the prompt:

Main Menu: Enter command > path pri sescsi.6.0
