IBM X3100 M4
- I've detected that the issue occurs when you try to install Microsoft Windows 2008, 2008 R2 / 2012 and 2012R2.
- If you try to boot directly with Windows Boot DVD the Windows setup stucks on copying files foreever on 0%.
- Some support fórums says that the issue must be the Brand of DVD that has the Windows Image.
- Our server has 4 SATA 1TB HDD and we have to install VMWare esxi 5 or 6 to get a functional server.
- So, with included MR10 controller on VMWare we cant build a single RAID 1.
- We created data redundancy placing Dynamic disks with Windows Mirroring on different datastores
- This is a Exchange 2010 Server, with several issues with VMWare time sync and a sluggish performance
Step by step resolution:
- Get IBM ServerGuide 9.63 x86-64 iso file from: https://www-945.ibm.com/support/fixcentral/systemx/downloadFixes?fixIds=ibm_utl_sguide_9.63-win2k08_anyos_x86-64
- Burn it to a DVD
- Boot ServerGuide, answer the RAID questions and choose Windows 2008 x64 as the operating System
- Respond all the answer files for Windows Setup questions
- When it asks for DVD, you'll need to use an Original Dual Windows 2008 x32 / x64 DVD
- Once installed you can in-place upgrade from Windows 2008 to Windows 2012 or 2008r2
- Once you got Windows 2012 o 2008r2 you can in-place upgrade to get Windows 2016 or Windows 2012R2
Greetings
