For specific information about setting boot attributes on x86 based systems, either at boot time or by using the bootadm command, see x86: Adding Kernel Arguments by Editing the GRUB Menu at Boot Time.

to interrogate a server's EEPROM from the Solaris command prompt via the ok boot prompt commands in solaris eeprom command. But not all know that it is

in the EEPROM. It processes parameters in the order given. When processing a parameter accompanied http://www.idevelopment.info/data/Unix/Solaris/SOLARIS_BootingOptionsandUsingEEPROM.shtml by a value, eeprom makes the indicated alteration to the http://subbarai-unix.blogspot.com/2010/10/solaris-eeprom-command.html EEPROM; otherwise it displays the parameter's value. When given no parameter specifiers, eeprom displays the values of all EEPROM parameters. A '-' (hyphen) flag specifies that parameters and values are to be read from the standard input (one parameter or parameter = eeprom boot value per line). Only the super-user (root) may alter the EEPROM contents. When the eeprom command is executed in user mode, the parameters with a trailing question mark (?) need to be enclosed in double quotation marks (" ") to prevent the shell from interpreting the question mark. Preceding the question mark eeprom auto-boot-on-error =true with an escape character (\) will also prevent the shell from interpreting the question mark. The remainder of this section descibes some of the common usages of the eeprom command in Solaris. Query Values To query all current EEPROM values, simply use the eeprom command with no arguments. If you only want to determine one EEPROM value, specify it as an argument. Here are two examples of using the eeprom command: # eeprom auto-boot? auto-boot?=true # eeprom test-args: data not available. diag-passes=1 pci-probe-list=7,c,3,8,d,13,5 local-mac-address?=false fcode-debug?=false ttyb-rts-dtr-off=false ttyb-ignore-cd=true ttya-rts-dtr-off=false ttya-ignore-cd=true silent-mode?=false scsi-initiator-id=7 oem-logo: data not available. oem-logo?=false oem-banner: data not available. oem-banner?=false ansi-terminal?=true screen-#columns=80 screen-#rows=34 ttyb-mode=9600,8,n,1,- ttya-mode=9600,8,n,1,- output-device=screen input-device=keyboard load-base=16384 auto-boot?=true boot-command=boot diag-file: data not available. diag-device=disk net boot-file: data not available. boot-device=disk net use-nvramrc?=false nvramrc: data not available. security-mode=none security-password: data not available. security-#badlogins=0 mfg-mode=off diag-level=max diag-switch?=false error-reset-recovery=boot auto-boot? Used to control the auto-boot feature. This option controls whether the system directly boots
It is a non-volatile storage device that cab be rewritten and erased by an electrical charge , one byte at a time whereas RAM or Flash Drives can do that in blocks.EEPROM can store information even when the power is turned off whereas RAM wipes the data.EEPROM is slower that RAM , but is perfectly fine for applications such as storing saved BIOS settings. Now coming to the eeprom command eeprom can be used to change the NVRAM parameters while the Solairs OS is running eeprom comand is located in/usr/sbin/eeprom [root@] / # eeprom test-args: data not available. diag-passes=1 pci-probe-list=c,8,d,5,13 local-mac-address?=false fcode-debug?=false silent-mode?=false scsi-initiator-id=7 oem-logo: data not available. oem-logo?=false oem-banner: data not available. oem-banner?=false ansi-terminal?=true screen-#columns=80 screen-#rows=34 ttyb-rts-dtr-off=false ttyb-ignore-cd=true ttya-rts-dtr-off=false ttya-ignore-cd=true ttyb-mode=9600,8,n,1,- ttya-mode=9600,8,n,1,- output-device=screen input-device=keyboard load-base=16384 auto-boot?=true boot-command=boot diag-file: data not available. diag-device=disk net boot-file: data not available. boot-device=disk use-nvramrc?=false nvramrc: data not available. security-mode=none security-password: data not available. security-#badlogins=0 diag-script=none diag-level=max diag-switch?=false error-reset-recovery=boot To list a single parameter you can use eeprom
