I have this playbook that what I'm trying to do it's to install CentOS using Ansible and Redfish, I don't want to use any modules, I'll install the CentOS on multiple Dell iDRAC9 servers and I'm having one issue:
2)After the ISO it's mounted, the server has not entered automatically into ISO boot menu, and I'm trying to achieve this by the Set ISO as primary boot device task.
Can someone please help me to correct this?
Here's the code:
