Windows
To install Windows Server 2016 RTM using the operating system (OS) installation media:- Press F2 during the POST to access System Settings and disable Virtualization Technology in the Processor settings.
- Install Windows Server 2016 with the OS installation media.
- Apply the latest Update Rollup via Windows Update. Windows Server 2016 RTM requires a hotfix (available on June 2017 Update Rollup and later) for a known AMD IOMMU issue. Deployments after Windows Server version 1709 no longer need this hotfix.
- Go to System Settings (F2 during the POST) and enable Virtualization Technology in the Processor settings.
If you wish to use Windows live debugging and want to use USB 3.0 as your debug transport, for the R6415 and R7415 platforms, only the internal USB port on the motherboard can be used for debugging. This will require you to open the case. On the R7425, no USB ports can be used for USB debugging, so you must resort to serial debugging for live debug.
VMWare
For VMWare, be sure to use the latest ESXi Customized file available on Dell.com/supportDownloading the ESXI Dell ISO installation is explained in this article.
Linux
For RHEL7.4, there is a bug that will prevent system boot up due to a kernel panic. The fix for the kernel panic is in this errata kernel:http://hb.us.dell.com/~charles/from-rh/rhel7.4/kernel-3.10.0-709.el7.bz1483747.x86_64.rpm
