A. B. C. D.A.
In order to successfully install the operating system from the PXE server, the technician needs to configure the BIOS settings on the server.
PXE (Preboot eXecution Environment) is a boot environment that enables a client to boot and install an operating system from a server over a network connection. PXE relies on the BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) to provide network boot capabilities.
Therefore, the technician should change the boot order in the BIOS settings to prioritize the network boot option first. This will enable the server to boot from the PXE server and access the operating system installation files.
To change the boot order in the BIOS settings, the technician needs to access the BIOS setup utility during the server boot process. The specific key or combination of keys to access the BIOS setup utility varies depending on the server's manufacturer and model.
Once in the BIOS setup utility, the technician should look for the boot options or boot order settings and change the boot order to prioritize the network boot option. After saving the changes, the server should be able to boot from the PXE server and install the operating system.
Therefore, the correct answer is A. BIOS settings.
