Hey All,
We have in our lab 144 new IBM HS-20 Blades running RH 9. All I need to be able to do is to load a OS across the network. We have looked at Xcat, Ghost, and now this, System Imager. Xcat offers way more than we need. Ghost still requires you to use "floppies" and SI seems to be the ticket.
What I was wondering is "specifically" can SI be used for this? (it appears to ) What barriers might I come across? I want static IP's but I was reading that I needed to have a DHCP srver running. What do I need to do to allow for static IP's? Can I make a master image that is custom for each system. Meaning, I dont want to go back to each new system I just made and manually change host names, etc. Is there also a how to mini on the setup specifically for these blades we have? Any help will be very much appreciated. thanks
