Configuring the Intel Network Adapter
To prepare the system to boot from an iSCSI-based LUN, you must enable the iSCSI remote boot feature
in the NIC option ROM, modify the Integrated Devices setting in the server BIOS, then setup the iSCSI
boot configuration on the NIC.
Enable iSCSI Remote Boot in the NIC Boot ROM
The Intel NICs are not shipped with Boot ROMs enabled for iSCSI. You must perform the following steps
to enable iSCSI remote boot in the Boot ROM on the NIC.
1. Create a DOS-bootable USB flash drive.
2. Extract both the Intel Boot Agent Utility (ProBoot.exe) and the Intel iSCSI Remote Boot Utility
(ISBoot.exe) to the bootable USB flash drive in separate directories.
3. With the Intel NIC installed, boot the server using the DOS-bootable USB flash drive.
