You can use the ILo port to install the OS.
Just connect to the ILo and attach your virtual media and set the boot order to boot from CD-ROM and there you go! it is that easy! unless is it boot from SAN then you might have some more configuring to do.


Hope this helps

Re: New BL20p Server plz help

if you have just few Server load manually with ilo, as recommended previously. Split Drives after and Simulate rebuild on the new.

Start from Page 35 (use IP 192.168.1.1)

Mount CD and FDD use them to load O/S

Update ILO Firmware from if needed
