The Central-on-Prem ISO can only be used on Central-ready appliances; you cannot simply source your own servers, not even if they would meet the system requirements.

Subject: Aruba Central On-Premises installation without Appliance
Hello.
I would like to install and test Aruba Central On-Premises software, but I am not sure, if I will be able to do it. I have a fresh DL360 Gen10 without Aruba Central Appliance. Can I just mount the ACO ISO trough ILO and install it, or do I need Central Appliance ? In installation guide, there are 3 points, where in one it requires the Appliance and other one where installation is trough the ILO, Appliance is not mentioned. The only requirement i see, is TPM chip, which I have, but not attached to server yet, so I have to know if I can install ACO without appliance, to not to waste TPM chip. Thanks.
