Hi All,

Can I ask how to load WinSvr2012 onto this blade server via KVM Console I've associated a service profile however I'm struggling to load the win 12 iso should I be loading something else first?

Many thanks for you're support in advance

I assume you would like to install on local disk (or san boot ?).

Your boot policy need to point to 1) CD/DVD 2) local disk or SAN boot

Then in KVM you have to map the Windows 2012 R2 iso file

Start installation

During installation map to the driver iso and install enic / fnic drivers because they are distributed by MSFT.

see attached document and

Hi Walter

Q. could you install the OS or not ?No we're still at the point of this message

We couldn't find any drives to get a storage driver click load driver "can someone point me to what drivers I need please

Q. did you install the enic/fnic drivers ?No it wont except them

During the windows installation you are asked if you want to install drivers (see w1).

Driver can be downloaded from
