Dell OpenManage™ Remote Install
Introduction to Remote Install: Dell OpenManage™ Remote Install User's Guide
Overview
Remote Install is a solution for remotely provisioning and configuring Dell™ PowerEdge™ 1655MC systems. Remote Install performs unattended, simultaneous provisioning and configuration of systems over the network by leveraging image-based technology.
The imaging process involves capturing an image from a source system, creating an image file in a storage location, and then remotely deploying the image to multiple target systems. Images are managed by an image server, which is the system running Remote Install. You can manage the imaging process remotely from an admin console, which is a system running a Web browser and displaying content served by the image server. See "Terminology" for definitions of essential Remote Install terms.
