Post pictures of your boot order(s)? But also, I haven't seen systems actually restart when failing on network boot when set for only network boot. So the problem is most likely not with your boot order, but with action taken on the failure of a network boot.

Thanks SAM<br />

Its enabled in BIOS. At boot, it attempts to boot from network and does boot from network.<br />
<br />
My point is if image server is down then my Z230 must keep rebooting rather attempting to boot from disk or something and stopping at:<br />
<b>Non-system disk or disk error<br />
Replace and strike any key when ready</b><br />
Because when this happens, system stops trying booting from network and manual intervention is needed which I don't want. I've already mentioned that 2nd or 3rd boot option is disabled and only boot from network is enabled.<br />
<br />
Hope you understand.<br />
<br />
Regards<br />

For my issue, I was trying myself to find a solution. While agreeing to an assistive reply from <br />
manrock i tried my own workaround and it worked. I shared what I did so that if someone else needs a similar solution and my workaround may help in that regard.

HP Z230 How to setup Network Boot Only or Restart

Networking is the process of connecting computing devices, peripherals and terminals together through a system that uses wiring, cabling or radio waves that enable their users to communicate, share information and interact over distances. Often associated are issues regarding operating systems, hardware and equipment, cloud and virtual networking, protocols, architecture, storage and management.

Networking

A personal computer is a general-purpose computer whose size, capabilities and price make it useful for individuals, and is intended to be operated directly by an end-user with no intervening computer time-sharing models that allowed systems to be used by many people, usually at the same time. Personal computers may be connected to a local area network (LAN), either by a cable or a wireless connection, and through that to the Internet. A personal computer may be a laptop computer or a desktop computer running an operating system such as Windows, Linux or Macintosh OS.

Hardware includes cell phones and other digital living devices, tablets, computers, servers, peripherals and components, printers and scanners, gaming consoles, networking hardware such as routers, hubs, switches and modems, storage devices and security equipment such as firewalls and other appliances.
