7.1 Procedure to Boot Using Auto-init Mode

Note: The auto-init mode is supported on all 7210 SAS platforms, except the 7210 SAS-R6,
7210 SAS-R12, and 7210 SAS platforms that are configured in the standalone-VC or
satellite modes of operation.
This section describes the procedure to boot the 7210 SAS using the auto-init mode.
The auto-init mode is used to boot the 7210 SAS device in the following scenarios:
To boot using the auto-init mode requires a DHCP server to be configured in the
network and reachable by the system. The 7210 SAS device uses the auto-init mode
to obtain the BOF from the network using the IP address and file location provided
by the DHCP server, and uses the parameters specified in the BOF to download the
TiMOS image file and configuration file required to boot the node. See
for more information about the auto-init procedure and the DHCP parameters used.
Perform the following steps to boot the 7210 SAS device using the auto-init mode.
Step 1. Connect the console port to the serial port of the PC and power up the 7210
Note: This is an optional step. Perform this step only if you need to diagnose issues with
the auto-init procedure, if any.
