Remote server image deployment - how???
I believe you can you the Dell Management Software to deploy OS images to new servers attached to the LAN, though I don't know where to start, or what software this facility is provided by.
We have just ordered a new bladecenter, 5 x 1855,s and 5 x 2850's so I don't want to have to build them manually. I would like to automate the build process as much as possible by incuding managment software, AV software and maybe even give the server a name and add it to the domain (though this bit is not as important).
I understand I'll probably have to build one of each of the model types as we buy them in to create the base build, but how do I go about this and then deploy them using PXE?
Any pointers to step-by-step guides would be ideal, though if you have done this yourself and would be kind enough to help me out I'd be very grateful.
Thanks in advance...
