Network Boot Retry Support

NOTE:

This option is available only on Gen8 servers.

This option controls system logic for retrying a failed network boot when attempting to boot from
an installed network adapter. This option affects only the primary network adapter listed in the
Standard Boot Order (IPL).

For information about what happens to the booting sequence when none of the devices in the IPL
are bootable, see

“Reset on Boot Device Not Found” (page 119)

.

Options include:

Enabled (default)—The system attempts to boot from the primary network adapter up to 20
times before trying to boot from the next IPL device.

Disabled—If the system cannot boot from the primary network adapter, it immediately tries to
boot from the next IPL device.

For more information about the IPL, see

“Standard Boot Order (IPL) menu” (page 75)
