Question

A data center engineer is preparing to install an operating system on several UCS X-Series compute nodes managed by Intersight in Intersight Managed Mode (IMM). The engineer wants the servers to automatically mount a remote ISO image over HTTPS during boot so the OS installer launches without any manual KVM interaction. Which configuration should the engineer add to the server profile to achieve this?

Accepted Answer

A vMedia policy referencing the HTTPS-hosted ISO, combined with a boot order policy that includes a virtual media (CIMC-mapped DVD) entry

Answer

A LAN connectivity policy with a dedicated iSCSI vNIC pointing to the ISO datastore

Answer

A storage policy configured with a RAID0 virtual drive that mounts the ISO as a boot LUN

Answer

An IMC Access policy assigning an in-band IP address so the ISO can be pushed to the local disk
