SmartStart for Servers Software
The SmartStart for Servers CD is used to load the system software, thereby
achieving a well-integrated server and ensuring maximum dependability and
supportability. The SmartStart for Servers CD contains diagnostic utilities and
ROMPaq tools.
To install the SmartStart for Servers CD, press the
F9
key to run RBSU and
configure the primary operating system. Next, follow these steps:
1. Locate the SmartStart for Servers CD in the Server Setup and
Management pack.
2. After you power up the server, press the CD-ROM drive eject button.
3. Insert the SmartStart for Servers CD into the CD-ROM drive with the
labeled side up. Handle the CD by its edges, not by the flat surfaces of
the disc.
4. When the busy indicator turns green, the SmartStart sequence begins.
Refer to the SmartStart documentation included with your server to
install the operating system, create updated driver diskettes, and run
upgrade utilities.
SmartStart Diskette Builder
The SmartStart for Servers CD contains a utility to generate support diskettes
in the event that they are needed or the software cannot be used directly from
the SmartStart for Servers CD. Support diskettes are “punched-out” from data
stored on the SmartStart for Servers CD. The support includes:
■
Array Configuration Utility (ACU)
■
Operating System support
■
Server utilities
■
Erase utility
■
System and Option ROMPaq diskettes
To run the Diskette Builder, use a workstation running Windows 95,
Windows 98, Windows NT, or Windows 2000. You also need several
1.44-MB diskettes. All data on the diskettes will be overwritten. Insert the
SmartStart CD into the workstation drive. The CD automatically runs the
Diskette Builder utility; however, if the system does not support the “auto-run”
feature, use Windows Explorer to run
