7. Configure EFIBoot via UEFI HII (Human

Interface Infrastructure) in a UEFI 2.1 System

EFIBoot is not supported on legacy converged network adapters (CNAs) such as the

LP21000 and LP21002.
If you have several adapters in your system, the UEFI system firmware or boot code

uses the highest version driver that is on one of your adapters. Adapters with older

versions of EFIBoot are managed by the more recent version, but only as long as the

adapter with the most recent version is in the system. The adapters must be updated

to actually update and not just use the most recent version available.

Start the Emulex Configuration Utility

Depending on the OEM UEFI configuration, the Emulex Configuration Utility may

appear under different setup menus in the OEM system firmware or BIOS. This

description applies to systems where the Emulex Utility is found under “System

Settings->Storage.”
To start the Emulex Configuration utility:
1. From the System Storage screen, select the Emulex HBA port and press <Enter>.

Note: This screen is different for LPe16000 adapters, but the functionality is the same.
