Boot image repository

The boot code image stored in the adapter’s flash memory contains the instructions that enable
the server to locate the boot disk in SAN. The boot code image contains the basic input/output
system (BIOS), extensible firmware interface (EFI), and open firmware which enable the adapters to
be compatible with any system platform.

Importing a boot image into the repository

Boot images are required for adapters that are shipped without a boot image or when it is
necessary to overwrite images on adapters that contain older or corrupted boot image versions.

1. From the Management application menu bar, select Configure > Host > Adapter Software.

2. Click the Boot Image tab.

The Boot Image Management dialog box, shown in

Figure 231
