Install Windows on Blade Server without VM

Hi,

I have some queries regarding UCS B200 M2 Blade servers:

Can I install windows server OS directly on the blade server without VMware?

Will Cisco support this installation or not ”from the support point of view TAC”

Can we find drivers from Cisco?

Regards,

Anser
