Using SETBOOTORDER
SETBOOTORDER enables you to set the order in which devices are booted, including diskette drives, CD-
ROM drives, hard drives, PXE, and USB devices. This utility sets the boot order only for devices that exist
for a server. The devices can be set to boot in any order.
SETBOOTORDER cannot be used to set the storage controller order. You must use the CONREP utility. For
more information about setting the controller order, see "Using CONREP (on page

NOTE: Any changes you make to the SETBOOTORDER will take affect at the next reboot. For

cannot be re-ordered.
