Verify that your systems OBP PROM variable know as "auto-boot?" is set
to "true". This can be verified from the command line by executing
hostname% eeprom auto-boot?
auto-boot?=false
or
hostname% eeprom | grep auto
auto-boot?=false
If this is not set to "true" then this can be reset to "true" by
executing.
eeprom auto-boot?=true
then varify through the following command.
# eeprom auto-boot?
auto-boot?=true
From the OBP PROM OK prompt
Either
OK> printenv -> this perform a listing of all of the OBP variables.
or
OK> printenv auto-boot?
auto-boot?=false
OK> setenv auto-boot?=true
OK> printenv auto-boot?
auto-boot?=true
