Boot Stateless / Diskless ESX i 5.X/5 using PXE boot

[saidar]

Hey

I am trying to boot Host [ stateless ] with ESX i 5.5 image
that mean ESXi  boot without local HD  .

I found some solution , some of them not relevant for example "PXE manager" since it support just ESXi 5.0 or less .

and some of them used deploy mechanic ,

Is there any way to PXE boot ESXi image [ stateless / diskless ]    except depoly server ?

Thanks

You can use autodeploy for the same,This is supported in esx55.

If you are  looking for some other third party tools other than autodeploy,I am not sure.

I remember a discussion about the same in previous post.Stateless or Stateful ESXi Installation

So its better and easy to go with autodeploy.

Hope this helps!!
