Chapter 3. Installing the operating system
Use these instructions to install the operating system on the compute node.
Provisioning is the set of actions that you take to install the operating system. To
install the operating system on a compute node, you can use any of the following
methods:
v
IBM
ServerGuide Setup and Installation
CD
Use the
ServerGuide Setup and Installation
CD to install a supported Microsoft
Windows operating system only. To provision a compute node with an operating
system by using the
ServerGuide Setup and Installation
CD, complete the following
steps.
1.
Download the
ServerGuide Setup and Installation
CD ISO image to a computer
that is connected over the management network to the IBM Flex System
Manager management software (if installed) that is managing the compute
node.
2.
Connect to the IBM Flex System Manager management software that is
managing the IBM Flex System chassis in which the compute node is
installed.
3.
From IBM Flex System Manager Chassis Manager, select the compute node.
In the Actions column, select
Remote Control
.
Note:
The user ID that you use to log in to IBM Flex System Manager
management software must have sufficient user permissions to manage the
compute node.
4.
From the Remote Control session, mount the
ServerGuide Setup and Installation
CD bootable media (using Remote Media). When the ServerGuide program
prompts you to mount the operating-system image, unmount the
ServerGuide
Setup and Installation
CD and mount the operating-system image.
You can also install an ISO image of the operating system from an external
or portable storage device, such as a USB device, by using Remote Media.

5.
Start the compute node to boot the media and install the operating system.
v
IBM ToolsCenter Bootable Media Creator
Use IBM ToolsCenter Bootable Media Creator to create an IBM
ServerGuide Setup
and Installation
CD for deploying Windows operating systems and updates from
UpdateXpress System Packs. For more information about the IBM Bootable
Media Creator, see http://www.ibm.com/support/entry/portal/
docdisplay?lndocid=TOOL-BOMC.
To provision a compute node with an operating system by using IBM
ToolsCenter Bootable Media Creator, complete the following steps:
1.
Download IBM ToolsCenter Bootable Media Creator to a computer that is
connected over the management network to the IBM Flex System Manager
management software that is managing the compute node.
2.
Connect to the IBM Flex System Manager management software (if installed)
that is managing the IBM Flex System chassis in which the compute node is
installed.
