Server 2016 bare metal restore

$

Just ordered a new Dell Server and installed Server 2016 with 2 Virtual Servers (both 2016), setup the Windows Backup on the hardware installed server, backing up to USB Drive.  Crashed the server (I wanted to test the restore capabilities), unfortunately Bare Metal Restore is not working.  It wants me to use a repair/installation disk, I am using another USB Drive with the installation ISO but it wants me to create a disk.

Is the repair disk required to do a bare metal restore on Server 2016?

I did not purchase the server with a DVD/RW so I will have to purchase 1 tomorrow along with DVD's to attempt to create a repair disk.  I will update the post afterwards and let you know how it goes, in the interim any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
