Operating system deployment
The OS Deployment feature allows you to deploy standard and custom operating systems on the managed system. You can also configure RAID before installing the operating system if it is not already configured.
Lifecycle Controller allows deploying the operating system using the following options:
- Manual installation
- Unattended installation. For more information on unattended installation, see Unattended installation.
- UEFI Secure Boot. For more information on UEFI Secure Boot, see UEFI Secure Boot.
- NOTE: Driver packs are available for the deployment of Windows and Linux operating systems supported by Lifecycle Controller. Before deploying these operating systems, make sure that Lifecycle Controller is updated with the latest driver packs. You can download the latest drivers pack from dell.com/support.
