Booting the Microsoft Windows Operating System

Boot the Windows Server 2003 operating system on an HP Integrity server by using the EFI Boot Manager to choose the appropriate Windows item from the boot options list. See “Shutting Down Microsoft Windows” on page 155 for details on shutting down the Windows operating system.

Step

1.

From the EFI Boot Manager menu, choose an item from the boot options list to boot Windows using

 

 

the chosen boot option.

Step

2.

Access the EFI Boot Manager menu for the server on which you want to boot Windows.

 

 

Log in to the management processor and enter CO to choose the system console.

 

 

When accessing the console, confirm that you are at the EFI Boot Manager menu (the main EFI

 

 

menu). If you are at another EFI menu, choose the Exit option from the submenus until you return

 

 

to the screen with the EFI Boot Manager heading.

Step

3.

At the EFI Boot Manager menu, choose an item from the boot options list.

 

 

Each item in the boot options list references a specific boot device and provides a specific set of boot

 

 

options or arguments to be used when booting the device.

Step

4.

Press Enter to initiate booting using the chosen boot option.

Step

5.

Once Windows begins loading, wait for the Special Administration Console (SAC) to become

 

 

available.

The SAC interface provides a text-based administration tool that is available from the system console. For details see the SAC online help (enter ? at the SAC> prompt).
