Module: dellemc_boot_to_network_iso
Synopsis
This module facilitates the operating system deployment. You can run this module to boot the target system to a bootable ISO
image on a CIFS or NFS share. This module looks for the customized ISO in the configured share location and transfers the
image to iDRAC to load it. On the system reboot, the OS deployment begins.
Check_mode support: No
