So, unfortunately it's not always a straight forward answer.  I only demonstrate for UCS systems, but here is my best attempt from that perspective.

Assuming the following:

  • Fiber Channel SAN
  • ESXi 5.0

For EDA in the "installdisk" parameter: =fnic

Standard 5.0 U2 or newer ISO will work.

Server Profile:

Boot Order, 1. LAN (So you can PXE boot), 2, SAN

You need to target your Directors/Storage Processors where the LUN will be delivered from.

LUN ID delivered should be standardized from your array.  Most often this should be LUN ID 0 or 1, but that is your preference.  I would just recommend you remember that 'preference'.
