Chapter 3 Loading AXD Tools 17

Both of these alternatives immediately load AXD EFI tools and bypass the list of

volumes described in the next step.

3 If you loaded the list of volumes instead of immediately loading AXD tools, select the

volume with AXD tools, and then click the arrow button to load it.

The AXD EFI tools volume is listed as AXD EFI 3X102.

After you’re done using AXD EFI tools, when you restart the Xserve, it starts up using its

original startup volume.

Loading an AXD EFI Tools NetBoot Image Using the Xserve’s

Front Panel

You can use the Xserve’s front panel buttons to load an AXD EFI tools disk image

hosted by a NetBoot server. This technique is useful for situations where your Xserve:

Â Doesn’t have a monitor or keyboard attached

Â Doesn’t respond to keyboard input

Â Doesn’t have Mac OS X Server installed

The Xserve must be on the same subnet as the NetBoot server hosting the AXD EFI

tools disk image.

If the Xserve’s EFI requires a password, you won’t be able to load a NetBoot image

using the front panel. You’ll need to disable the firmware password before you can use

the front panel. To disable the password, you must be able to load Mac OS X Server on

the Xserve.

To use the Xserve’s front panel to load an AXD EFI tools NetBoot image:

1 Turn off the Xserve.

2 Press and hold the system identifier button and press the on/standby button.

3 Continue holding the system identifier button until the top row of lights move right to

left. Release the system identifier button.
