6. Enter the following commands:
attrib -r .\src\sources\boot.wim
attrib -r .\src\sources\install.wim
7. Enter run the following command to mount the boot.wim image:
dism /mount-wim /wimfile:.\src\sources\boot.wim /index:2 /mountdir:.\mnt
Note that you must always use "2" for the index value.
8. Enter the following commands to add the following driver to the currently mounted image:
dism /image:.\mnt /add-driver /driver:C:\Temp\b57nd60a\b57nd60a.inf
9. Enter the following command to unmount the boot.wim image:
dism /unmount-wim /mountdir:.\mnt /commit
10. Enter the following command to determine the index of the desired SKU in the install.wim image:
dism /get-wiminfo /wimfile:.\src\sources\install.wim
For example, in Windows Server 2012, index 2 is identified as "Windows Server 2012 SERVERSTANDARD."
11. Enter the following command to mount the install.wim image:
dism /mount-wim /wimfile:.\src\sources\install.wim /index:X /mountdir:.\mnt
Note that X is a placeholder for the index value that you obtained in step 10.
12. Enter the following commands to add the driver to the currently mounted image:
dism /image:.\mnt /add-driver /driver:C:\Temp\b57nd60a\b57nd60a.inf
13. Enter the following command to unmount the install.wim image:
dism /unmount-wim /mountdir:.\mnt /commit
14. Enter the following command to create an .iso file:
oscdimg -e -h -m -n -lslipstream -bootdata:2#p0,e,b"c:\Program Files\Windows
AIK\Tools\PETools\amd64\boot\etfsboot.com"#pEF,e,b"c:\Program Files\Windows
AIK\Tools\PETools\amd64\boot\efisys.bin" c:\temp\x\src c:\temp\Win20xxMOD.iso
Note that Platform is a placeholder for the architecture of the operating system that you want to install, such as
amd64 or x86. Also, xx in the file names is a placeholder for the Windows Server OS version (2012, 2008R2,
2008SP2.)
15. Using a DVD-burning application, burn the .iso file you created to a DVD.
16. Use the DVD that you created in step 15 to install the applicable Windows Server version.
Booting
After that the system has been prepared for an iSCSI boot and the operating system is present on the iSCSI target, the last
step is to perform the actual boot. The system will boot to Windows or Linux over the network and operate as if it were a
local disk drive.
1. Reboot the server.
2. Select CTRL+S.
3. From the Main menu, select General Parameters and configure the Boot to iSCSI target option to Enabled.
If CHAP authentication is needed, enable CHAP authentication after determining that booting is successful (see Enabling CHAP
Authentication ).
Other iSCSI Boot Considerations
There are several other factors that should be considered when configuring a system for iSCSI boot.
Changing the Speed & Duplex Settings in Windows Environments
Booting via the NDIS path is supported. The Speed & Duplex settings can be changed using the BACS management utility for
iSCSI boot via the NDIS path.
Locally Administered Address
A user-defined MAC address assigned through the Locally Administered Address property of the Advanced section of the BACS
Configurations tab is not supported on iSCSI boot-enabled devices.
