NOTE: For C-Series sever deployment, network and BIOS configuration can not be done using
appliance. You need to do it manually. You need to make sure that hard disk is available for server to
install OS. You need to set single NIC to PXE boot. This should be set as first boot device and hard
disk should be set as second boot device.
You need to configure network on top of rack switch which are connected to C-Series server. You
need to configure necessary VLAN on the service facing port of that top of rack switch. For that you
need to place PXE VLAN-untagged for any kind of OS deployment. If it’s Windows and Linux bare
metal OS installation, you need to set worklaod network and you need to set Hypervisor
management network for ESXi deployment.
NOTE: Prior to deployment of FX2 or Blade server, you need to disable Flexadress every server in
chassis. To disable Flexadress, follow the path:
CMC > Server Overview > Setup > FlexAddress.
You need to make sure that server is powered down to disable FlexAddress. Ideally these should be
done prior discovering the server.
