definitions that can be used by the Network
Configuration Editor
tool. The network definitions are
used by the OS installation tools to implement booting
using the virtual media mechanism.
IMPORTANT:
The network definitions must be created
before initiating
discovery through virtual
media.

“Discovering bare-metal
servers using virtual
media” (page 39)
This tool allows the administrator to initiate a bare-metal
discovery for servers using their already discovered
management processors. It is a single page that allows
the user to select the boot method of the server as either
PXE or virtual media, then boots the server using the
selected method to initiate a bare-metal discovery.
