I'm preparing to remotely install Windows 2008 Standard onto a 6250 blade module mounted in a SunBlade 6000 chassis rack.

Are there any gotchas (aside from the predictable issues related to bandwidth in transferring the ISO, etc.) for this? Has anyone else successfully completed this task?

I'm not a hardware guy, I'm a software guy who has been handed this task because the guys in the datacenter don't want to touch it.

Any help is appreciated.
