Local Boot Media Requirements
Local boot media requires a built-in storage device on the server, or an external
storage device attached to the server.
Supported OS local boot media sources can include:
■
CD/DVD-ROM installation media, and, if applicable, floppy device driver media
Remote Boot Media Requirements
Remote media requires you to boot the install over the network. You can start the
network install from a redirected boot storage device or another networked system
that exports the installation over the network using a Pre-Boot eXecution
Environment (PXE).
Supported OS remote boot media sources can include:
■
CD/DVD-ROM installation media, and, if applicable, floppy device driver media
■
CD/DVD-ROM ISO installation image, and, if applicable, floppy device driver
media
■
Automated installation image (requires PXE boot)

Set Up the Local Boot Media Option
To set up local boot media, perform these steps.
1. If the server is equipped with an optional DVD drive, insert the Windows
Server OS installation DVD into the DVD drive located on the front of the
server; otherwise, proceed to the next step.
For more information about how to attach local devices to the server, see the Sun
Server X3-2L Installation Guide, “Cabling the Server” on page 61 .
2. If your server does not contain a DVD drive, insert a USB flash drive that
contains the Windows Server OS installation media into one of the external
USB ports located on the front and rear of the server.
