V9.2 auto boot not working

[mjimji]

I have V9.2 running under VirtualBox, with UEFI shell set to boot into VMS_BOOTMGR, which works fine. In BOOTMGR I issue the command AUTO BOOT and it tells me that the AUTOACTION is BOOT DKA400 0 000000, as I would expect. Issuing this command manually boots into VMS. If I exit BOOTMGR and let shell reboot back into BOOTMGR, it does not automatically boot VMS; the AUTOACTION is back at HALT. There surely must be some obvious step that I'm missing...
Thanks,
Mark

Did you save the "NON-VOLATILE STORE" content ?

Thank you, no, I did not issue the SAVE command; it is now working.

The Boot Manager User Guide says that the settings are stored whenever a SAVE, BOOT or EXIT command is issued. I was issuing the EXIT command and it clearly was not saving the setting.
