[Puppet Users] Automation of OS install

[haksson81]

Hi,

I need to automate installation of 50 bare metal servers, the OS of choice 
is a non official linux distor. that is only available as an .iso image, 
these servers are cisco ucs c m240 series.

Is there a way to do that ? 

What we are doing today is using the server management plane (CIMC) to 
launch a console session that is booting from the .iso image and we walk 
through the install steps and give a new password at the end, everything 
else is done later.

Thanks

You want to look at puppet razor for bare metal provisioning.
