help.
3.4.1 Overview of Remote Installation
Remote installation is a method to save resources necessary for installation, such as the OS and Service
Pack, in a different server on the network and install them via the network.
If a remote resource server is configured, you can install the same resources to multiple servers. This
method is useful in configuring multiple servers.
● Target Server and Remote Resource Server/PXE Server
A server to which resources are installed is called a "target server". A server that stores resources
necessary for remote installation is called a "remote resource server". A server that can start up a target
server through network startup (PXE) is called a "PXE server".
■ Installation Method
Remote installation uses a PXE or a remote resource server.
● Remote Installation Using a PXE Server
In remote installation using a PXE server, the network startup (PXE) function of the PXE server starts
up the target server and performs installation in preconfiguration mode. This method is used when the
target server does not have a CD-ROM or floppy disk drive.
