Re: [Users] Pxeboot
Hi Douglas,
Thanks for the link.
However I can't quite tell if this is pxeboot installation or a truly stateless
pxeboot that you not only suck in the configurations from the server but also NFS mount
the final RHEV-H root fs from the same server.
Mike has mentioned oVirt Node 2.3 can only do the install but not the stateless boot. I
wonder if this is the same case with RHEV-H.
