Abstract

See full text

A system for remote booting of a server generally includes a client initiator, an iSCSI virtualizer, and an iSCSI initiator. The client initiator requests access to the server and the iSCSI virtualizer receives the access request. Then, the iSCSI initiator acts upon the request received by the iSCSI virtualizer to initiate login to the server through use of an iSCSI Boot ROM on the server and to emulate a disk operating system through use of the iSCSI Boot ROM, which enables the server to boot. The server boots in both an 8-bit and a subsequent 32-bit mode. The iSCSI Boot ROM appears as a local device upon the completion of the server boot. The iSCSI virtualizer authenticates the login at least twice. The iSCSI virtualizer includes a pair of replicated active directory service servers (ADSS).
