The following steps are necessary to configure the autoboot feature:

  1. Create the autoboot format file.

  2. Add the autoboot feature to your system's configuration.

  3. Halt system activity.

  4. Perform a configuration update and test for successful configuration of AutoRestart/iX.

  5. Return your system to a normal operating state.

The final step in autoboot configuration is a test for successful configuration of all three AutoRestart/iX features: dump-to-disk, restart, and autoboot. For a successful test, you must have already configured the dump-to-disk feature and must have created at least one dump file.

Many of the steps described in this chapter require you to log on to the console, to an account with system manager capability. For convenience, this manual recommends that you perform all steps from the console.

NOTE: Each customer installation is different. Read these steps before you start, and customize any areas that require customization for your system.
