Abstract
Techniques are provided herein for optimizing boot order for devices in a data center environment. These techniques may be embodied as a method, apparatus and instructions in a computer-readable storage media to perform the method. A computing apparatus having connectivity to a network receives instructions from a management device in the network. The instructions comprise attributes that are associated with boot devices hosted by the computing apparatus. The attributes are analyzed to determine a priority order for the boot devices. One or more boot devices hosted by the computing apparatus is removed from an initialization process when the one or more boot devices do not match the attributes in the instructions. The remaining boot devices, other than the one or more boot device removed from the initialization process, are initialized in accordance with the priority order.
