iPXE customer script (BETA)
Booting your server with your own iPXE script allows cool things like:
- running diskless bare-metal system like CoreOS, SmartOS, ...
- recovering with your own Rescue system or bare-metal restore tools (like Acronis and Idera)
- launching Standard installer like ESXi, Linux, Solaris, ...
How? Using directly the RESTful API EU|CA or the API console EU|CA.
It's also working for Kimsufi EU|CA and SoYouStart EU|CA.
