PXE Boot Dell Servers

[Terry MacDougal]

Has anyone seen any workflows to PXE boot Dell servers? So interaction with iDRAC would be necessary.

Thanks

you will have to enter the MAC address of the NIC probably by hand.  The mac of the iDRAC is not to use full for a PXE boot.

Hi Orf,

I have a customer with similar requirements, I have added the dell server as a physical account in Director.
I can see 4 MAC address of the Dell NIC, do you mean that these wouldn't be enough to carry out PXE boot?

Take a look in the task library if there is a dell task that lets you choose the mac and then provides the mac as output inorder for it to be used as input in the setup pxe boot task.
