Operating Systems Solaris HOW TO INSTALL os from cdrom from console? Post 302787125 by bitlord on Thursday 28th of March 2013 05:03:36 PM

If your using the ILOM GUI you can mount the ISO. Do you know how to get the remote console from the GUI?

Any way in the console window. On the menu bar go to Devices -> CD-ROM Image. Then you will get a window asking for the location. Just select it and your ready to boot to the cd-rom. Just reboot the server and the run the command
Code:
boot cdrom

just like chilinski said.

I hope this helps
