Storage server
You can use a Remote Storage server to provide an image file (ISO/NRG
image) as remote storage for any number of PRIMERGY servers that can be
administered via iRMC S2/S3. You can use this image file to boot one or more
PRIMERGY servers from the remote workstation (see chapter "Remote
installation of the operating system via iRMC S2/S3" on page 371).
The Remote Storage server is available for Windows systems
I The Remote Storage server is available in a 32-bit and 64-bit variant for
Windows. The 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the Remote Storage server
must not be installed at the same time on 64-bitsystems.
I You will find the individual variants of the Remote Storage server on your
ServerView Suite DVD 1 under
SVSoftware\Software\RemoteView\iRMC

the image file made available by the Remote Storage server:
