Draft Document for Review June 27, 2012 9:05 am Storwize_V7000.fm Figure 5-72 Select DVD to install OS 14.Assuming this installation is from DVD, insert the media and follow the installation instructions in section 5.6, “Operating Systems Configuration” on page 325. 5.6 Operating Systems Configuration IBM Storwize v7000 supports SAN Boot for Windows, VMware, Linux, AIX, and many other operating systems. SAN Boot support can change from time to time, therefore we strongly recommend checking the IBM Storwize v7000 interoperability matrix before setting up SAN Boot, available at: http://www-03.IBM.com/systems/storage/disk/storwize_v7000/interop.html Support for multipathing software with SAN Boot is also updated at the interop link (above). In the following sub-sections, we will list step-by-step instructions for SAN Boot implementation using Microsoft Windows 2008 R2, VMware ESXi 4.1, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 SP1, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.5 (RHEL), and IBM AIX version 6.1 operating systems. 5.7 SAN Boot for Windows Microsoft Windows operating systems have been using SAN Boot implementations since Windows NT, due to its significant advantages in terms of the Redundancy, Availability, and Serviceability of fabric connectivity. Microsoft support for booting from a SAN: Refer to the below article for information about Microsoft support for booting from a SAN. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/305547 In the following pages, we explain the steps to implement SAN Boot using Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 with SP1 on a boot volume residing at an IBM Storwize V7000 storage system.
