Dell Lifecycle Controller and iDRAC provide operating system deployment options. Options include manual installation or unattended installation by using virtual media and the operating system deployment feature in Lifecycle Controller for Azure Stack HCI operating system version 23H2.
A step-by-step procedure for deploying the operating system is not within the scope of this guide.
This guide assumes that:
- Azure Stack HCI operating system version 23H2 installation on the physical server is complete.
- You have access to the iDRAC virtual console of the physical server.
Note: For information about installing the operating system using the iDRAC virtual media feature, see Using the Virtual Media function on iDRAC 6, 7, 8 and 9 Dell Knowledge Base article.
Note: The Azure Stack HCI operating system is based on Server Core and does not have the full user interface. For more information about using the Server Configuration tool (SConfig), see Deploy the Azure Stack HCI operating system Microsoft article.
