Abstract
Various examples of the present technology provide a method for iSCSI based bare metal OS image deployment and diskless boot in a server system. In some examples, methods for iSCSI based bare metal OS image deployment and diskless boot in a server system comprise setting a boot order of a BIOS of the server system to iSCSI NIC of a controller (e.g., BMC) of the server system, setting iSCSI boot configuration to the controller, updating the boot order based at least upon information from the controller, syncing the iSCSI boot configuration to the BIOS of the server system based upon the information from the controller, and causing the server system to be booted from a specific target IP and LUN of an iSCSI storage server of a SAN.
