Dell Lifecycle Controller Remote Services v2.60.60.60 Quick Start Guide
Operating system deployment
The operating system deployment feature is used to remotely deploy an operating system using WSMAN web services protocols that use CIFS and NFS network file sharing protocols. Remote activation of locally exposed embedded drivers such as a USB drive eliminates the need for physical media.
NOTE: By default the
drivers are available with iDRAC and Lifecycle Controller for all
the Dell supported operating systems.
You can perform the following operations:
- Get installed driver pack version and list of supported operating systems.
- Expose embedded OS deployment drivers for a selected operating system remotely. The drivers are attached to the server on an emulated USB device.
- Remote acquisition of embedded drivers for the selected operating system to a CIFS or NFS network share that can be used later for operating system deployment.
- Boot to an ISO image on a CIFS or NFS network share to initiate an operating system installation.
- Download ISO to vFlash SD card and boot from the card to initiate an operating system installation.
- Connect an ISO from CIFS or NFS network share, attaching it as virtual USB CD-ROM device to the server, and booting the server to the ISO, every time the server restarts.
- One time boot to PXE.
- One time boot to hard disk.
- Get the list of MAC addresses of all supported NICs present on the server.
- Deploy operating system on iSCSI and FCoE LUN.
