SUMMARY: How to properly set nvramrc for initiator change?

Original question:

And the answer thanks to Tony Walsh

Well, how about that... I never noticed because this was the first thing
I did on the machine.

I tried it on the partner (with no nvram settings) and sure enough, no
'reset' command.   Old habits die hard...

Thanks.
