Abstract
A method of setting up a cloud cluster is disclosed as providing at least one compute node with a baseboard management controller (BMC), the BMC of the compute node receiving secured information and using the secured information to establish communication with a cloud controller. Upon establishing the communication, the compute node then receives a cloud operating system (OS) image from the cloud controller via the BMC of the compute node. Finally, the cloud OS image is written to a host system in the compute node. A compute node is also disclosed.
