Sample SP Environmental Variables Showing U-Boot Test Status

The status of the U-Boot tests shows in the SP environmental variables output. The following display shows a typical output.


Note - The SP does not boot if the U-Boot test fails, so you will not be able to see the environmental variables until it can be made to pass.


preboot- uboot
WARNING: Will reboot after 300 seconds of idle time.
