Options may appear or disappear from this screen depending on your selections. The screen is broken into two
main sections; one for configuring the
Client network boot options
and one for configuring the
Client network
install options
. The setting for the Install Mode at the top of the screen determines whether or not the Client
network install options section will appear.
The following fields are used to configure the client to boot from a
boot server
:
1. Install mode: You must select here whether you want to perform a no-prompt or menu-driven
installation:
a. By
selecting
No-prompt, the client will be installed without entering any information on the
client. This is referred to as a
. If selected, all of the remaining prompts must
be filled in.
b. If
Menus (set defaults) is selected, you will be provided the additional prompts now, all of
which are optional. The information you provide will appear as defaults on the client after it is
booted, but those options may also be changed on the client.
c. If
Menus (no-defaults) is selected, it is assumed that and all install options will be selected
from the client install menus once it is booted. When selected, all remaining options will
disappear from the screen as they no longer apply.
2. Server to boot from: If the server in this field is incorrect, use the arrow button to list and select a
different server from which to boot from. By default, the boot server is assumed to be the install server
as well. However, the
install server
may be changed as described later. If updating an image and you
choose to change the boot server, the image on the old boot server will be automatically disabled.
If the boot server was configured with an
Alternate Server Network
, then a drop-down list will be
available for you may select to boot the client using this alternate network.
