Multiple guest O.S. boot for server component setup

1. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium bearing a hypervisor executable by a processor to:

boot all guest operating systems (GOS) needed to configure server components detected by an update utility;

execute the update utility in each GOS so that the components are updated in parallel without having to sequentially launch the utility into a GOS, update its component, then shut down and re-launch into another GOS

wherein the hypervisor boots a setup operating system (SOS) associated with the utility prior to booting the GOS;

wherein the utility executes on the SOS to detect server components; and

wherein the utility executes in each GOS to configure the respective component.

2. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 1 , wherein the hypervisor is a type 1 hypervisor.

3. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 1 , wherein the hypervisor is a type 2 hypervisor.

4. Method comprising:

booting a setup operating system;

detecting first and second server components associated with a server, the first component being associated with a first guest operating system (GOS) and the second component being associated with a second GOS;

booting the first and second GOS to execute in the server simultaneously with each other;

configuring the components in parallel using the first and second GOS;

wherein the detecting and configuring acts are executed by a utility operating under the setup operating system; and

wherein the utility executes in each GOS to configure the respective component.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the booting act is executed by a hypervisor.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the hypervisor is a type 1 hypervisor.

7. The method of claim 5 , wherein the hypervisor is a type 2 hypervisor.

8. A computer, comprising:

at least one processor;

at least one computer readable storage medium accessible to the processor to:

boot a setup operating system (SOS);

execute a utility in the SOS to discover at least first and second components associated with the computer;

boot a first guest operating system (GOS) associated with the first component;

boot a second guest operating system (GOS) associated with the second component such that both GOS execute on the computer simultaneously;

execute the utility in the first GOS to configure the first component; and

execute the utility in the second GOS to configure the second component.

9. The computer of claim 8 , wherein the processor executes a hypervisor.

10. The computer of claim 9 , wherein the hypervisor is a type 1 hypervisor.

11. The computer of claim 9 , wherein the hypervisor is a type 2 hypervisor.

12. The computer of claim 9 , wherein the hypervisor boots the SOS prior to booting the GOS.
