## Change the Host Boot Mode Behavior at Reset

The `/HOST/bootmode` state property controls how OpenBoot NVRAM variables are used. Normally the current settings of these variables are retained. Setting `/HOST/bootmode state=reset_nvram` changes the OpenBoot NVRAM variables to their default settings at the next reset.

- At the Oracle ILOM `->` prompt, type:

      -> set /HOST/bootmode state=value

  where value is one of the following:

  - `normal` – At next reset, retains current NVRAM variable settings.

  - `reset_nvram` – At next reset, returns OpenBoot variables to default settings.

  Note - `state=reset_nvram` will return to normal after the next server reset or 10 minutes (see `expires` property in Display Host Boot Mode Expiration Date). `config` and `script` properties do not expire and will be cleared upon the next server reset or manually by setting value to "".
