We are rolling out alot of Hosts and planned to use Auto Deploy (vCenter 5.1 Update 1a). It's an accelerated rollout with limited testing time so we are starting with Stateful.
I see that Dell doesn't have an officially released Image Profile but they do have a Customized ISO for vSphere 5.1 Update 1. My assumption is we would use Image Builder to compile a Dell Image Profile by starting with the base VMware provided Image Profile and injecting the latest Dell specific drivers.
- I wanted to confirm the process I defined as valid.
- What is the process for determining the complete Dell driver list I'd want to use? Ideally I'd like to run something against the Dell Customized ISO to identify and match the drivers precisely. Does such a command exist. If not, how would I identify the complete list of Dell drivers?
I have spoken with Dell but, have not found solid answers. Looking for guidance for anyone who has gone through the process with for Dell hardware or could provide additional information or clarification..
