Booting and Shutting Down Microsoft Windows

This section describes how to boot and shut down Microsoft Windows on entry class HP Integrity servers and how to add Windows entries to the system boot options list.

“Adding Microsoft Windows to the Boot Options List” (page 132)

“Booting the Microsoft Windows Operating System” (page 133)

“Shutting Down Microsoft Windows” (page 134)

Adding Microsoft Windows to the Boot Options List

NOTE: The operating system installer automatically adds an entry to the boot options list.

To add a Microsoft Windows entry to the system boot options list, follow these steps:

1.Access the EFI Shell environment.

a.Log in to the iLO 2 MP and enter CO to access the system console.

b.Confirm that you are at the EFI Boot Manager menu. If you are at another EFI menu, select Exit from the submenus until you return to the screen labeled EFI Boot Manager.

c.From the EFI Boot Manager menu, select EFI Shell to access the EFI Shell environment.

2.Access the EFI System Partition (fsX: where X is the file system number) for the device from which you want to boot Microsoft Windows.

For example, enter fs2: to access the EFI System Partition for the bootable file system number 2. The EFI Shell prompt changes to reflect the file system currently accessed.

The full path for the Microsoft Windows loader is

\efi\microsoft\winnt50\ia64ldr.efi and it is on the device you are accessing.
