Re: IVM OS installation in BL 890c i2
There are two options.
1. Create an Ignite golden Image and install all the VMs from that.
2. Install one guest, then clone the boot disk for other 8 copies of LV/disk/file/Lun , what ever; boot each one and change host specific configuration like hostname, IP address etc.

Re: IVM OS installation in BL 890c i2
Create 1 VM and install it how you like
Create a ignite backup of the VM (ignite server could be the 890).
Create VM2 with lan cards and Disks
Boot it off the ignite server and retsore the image from Vm1 but changing IP
Repeat for all other VMs. VMs can be booted from a ignite server off the network.
You could copy the lun in the san or copy the file that is the boot disk of the first VM and assign it to the 2nd VM and so on.
That might be faster.
