N1 Grid Service Provisioning System User's Guide and Release Notes for the OS Provisioning Plug-In 1.0

Network Environment

Verify that the Master Server, OS provisioning server, and boot and install servers are able to connect with each other through an IP network.

Ensure that you have enough bandwidth to provision the servers simultaneously. The bandwidth requirements vary depending on how many simultaneous provisioning operations you intend to perform.


Note –

Simultaneous OS installations require lot of bandwidth and might experience failures or timeouts if the bandwidth is not available. To avoid problems, either physically separate the traffic or deploy more boot and install servers.
