  • A Map ISO image file, reboot server, choose ESXi installer, Accept EULA, Choose NetApp LUN as installation disk, confirm root password, accept remove existing partitions warning and continue, unmap ESXI installation image, reboot
  • B Map ISO image file, choose ESXi installer, Accept EULA, choose local LSI storage device, confirm root password, unmap ESXi installation image, reboot
  • C Boot server, choose ESXi installer, Accept EULA, Choose NetApp LUN as installation disk, confirm root password, accept remove existing partitions warning and continue, reboot
  • D Map ISO image file, reboot server, choose ESXi installer, Accept EULA, Choose NetApp LUN as installation disk, confirm root password, reboot
Explanation

An ESXi SAN-boot installation must boot from installation media, select the SAN LUN as the installation target, confirm any existing-partition removal, configure the root password, remove the installation media, and reboot so the host starts from the SAN LUN.
