• The drivers unpacked and attached are removed after the time specified
in

• Ensure that ISO images attached during the process are detached
before you use system services.

commands, the installation will fail whenever there is an OEM drive
(for driver source) attached. To avoid failure, do not attach the OEM
drive when using remote enablement commands to install Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 5.3.
• The following methods can be used to boot the system from an ISO image
on a network share or to initiate PXE boot mechanisms:
a
The
BootToNetworkISO()
method on the
DCIM_OSDeploymentService
class will boot the system using an
ISO image that has been made available on a CIFS or NFS network share.
The method takes the ISO image name, network share information, and
exposure duration as input parameters and returns a job identification
that can be subsequently checked for the status of the unpack and share
activity. Network share information includes the IP address of the share,
the share name, share type, and username, password and workgroup data
for secure shares. For additional security a hash value can be calculated
using well known hash algorithms and this value along with the type of
the hash used can be provided as input parameters.
b
The
BootToPXE()
method on the
DCIM_OSDeploymentService
class initiates a Pre-Boot Execution Environment (PXE) boot of the
system. The method requires no input parameters.
