Installing an OS through the BIOS
This section introduces OS installation in the BIOS Setup Utility through an optical disk drive,
bootable USB disk, and virtual media.
Information on the BIOS setup utility is for illustration only and might differ from your products.
Preparing for installation
Preparing an OS image
Before installing an OS, obtain the OS image from the official website of the OS.
Obtaining a storage controller driver
To install an OS on a logical drive, you must also install the storage controller drivers. By default, an
OS contains drivers for storage controllers of some models and the contained drivers vary by OS
version.
As a best practice, install drivers separately or install the OS through FIST or iFIST.
To obtain storage controller drivers, access the official website of H3C at
https://www.h3c.com/en/Support/Resource_Center/Software_Download/Servers/
Logging in to the server
You can log in to the server locally or through a remote console.
Logging in to the server locally
You can connect a keyboard, monitor, and mouse to the server and then power on the server to
manage it locally.
Launching a remote console through HDM
1.
Obtain the management IP address and user account information of HDM.
For a rack server, the HDM shared network port obtains IP addresses through DHCP and the
HDM dedicated network port uses IP address 192.168.1.2/24. For a blade server, you can log
in to OM to view the management IP address.
By default, the username and password are
admin
and
Password@_
. Both the username and
password are case-sensitive.
