## Background 
 About pxe boot for SLM 6.1, it is confirmed to be supported. See confirmation in https://app.slack.com/client/T02863RC2AC/C03G45KTP6W. 

 To do bare metal virtualization test, we automate the pxe installation for SLM6.1 in https://github.com/os-autoinst/os-autoinst-distri-opensuse/pull/20042(#164087). Now we are going to deploy tests to OSD.  

 ## Acceptance criteria 
 * **AC1:** SLM 6.1 PXE boot tests can boot within OSD production tests 
 * **AC2:** Requesters are happy (because we don't know which tests to use for verification) 

 ## Requirement 
 There is infra setup requirement for the pxe boot as below: 
 - for each SLM 6.1 build, please untar, **x86 and aarch64** , below resources into http accessible links from OSD ipmi SUT, eg sth like http://10.200.131.12:8666/ipxe/x86_64/ and http://10.200.131.12:8666/ipxe/aarch64. A possible location is https://openqa.suse.de/assets/repo/ (or where more suitable). 
   - https://download.suse.de/ibs/SUSE:/SLFO:/Products:/SL-Micro:/6.1:/ToTest/images/SL-Micro.x86_64-6.1-Default-SelfInstall-Build[build-num].install.tar  
   - https://download.suse.de/ibs/SUSE:/SLFO:/Products:/SL-Micro:/6.1:/ToTest/images/SL-Micro.aarch64-6.1-Default-SelfInstall-Build[build-num].install.tar 

 ## Impact 
 **This is high priority request** , because the FC basement lab is going to have CC related change. In the period, both the two machines with usb disks that serve sle micro baremetal tests will be    down.    So we need to setup this soon. 

 ## Suggestions 
 * Probably openqa-trigger-from-obs should be capable of doing that. Support people commonly working with that to solve the problem on their own
