OS iso is not bootable from ESXI 7.0.2 but It works in VM Worstation

Hi all,

We have ESXI 7.0.2 at the work.

I'm trying to install a server from scratch from an ISO. I select the ISO but the server doesn't recognise the iso. Boot order is OK.

 

If I try to do same procedure using VM Worstation in my laptop It works fine.


What could be the problem?

Thanks,
Carlos

Hardware is an HP cluster

The ISO is in a network server

The problem is that I can see & mount the ISO as an CD/DVD, the boot order is ok in the BIOS, but when I start the server It tries to boot from network directly.

We have changed the iso permissions from the user to root and It has worked. It is very strange

Thanks
