1.6.1. Interactive Setup

At the prompt of the interactive boot menu, enter the number of the requested boot configuration. 0 is the default configuration. Then, enter the cio_ignore parameter in the following format:

0 cio_ignore=all,!0.0.1300-0.0.1302,!0.0.343d,!0.0.3633

In this example, all devices except 0.0.1300, 0.0.1301, 0.0.1302, 0.0.343d and 0.0.3633 will be included in the blacklist. For a complete description of the interactive boot menu, refer to man zipl.conf.

Note

Due to an issue with the interactive boot menu on LPAR, use the right square bracket character (]) instead of the exclamation point (!).
