While running Oracle Solaris, use this procedure to configure OpenBoot so that a host reset or power on either attempts to boot automatically, or not. This change is permanent but only takes effect after a host reset.
(Default) The host automatically attempts to boot from the devices specified in boot-device.
The host does not automatically boot. You can boot manually.
For example:
# eeprom auto-boot?=false
# eeprom auto-boot? auto-boot?=false
# init 6
The host resets. After initialization the host attempts to boot or not, based on your configuration.
