Chapter 4 Operations after OS Installation
4.3 Storing the System Configuration
Information
Before starting operations and when changing the system configuration information,
store the configuration information. By storing this information, the system can be
recovered with the stored information in case of a system failure (such as when the
baseboard fails). Use Server Management Tools for storing and recovering the
system configuration information.
`
Since the system configuration information is significant in maintaining the server, be sure to store the
configuration information after the following operations:
• When the information is changed with BIOS Setup Utility
• When the hardware configuration of this server is changed (e.g. memory, hard disk unit, baseboard
or expansion card is added/removed or changed)
• When the Remote Management Controller information is changed
`
The stored system configuration information will be used for maintenance operation.
Cautions
• "Server Management Tools" disk is exclusively for this server. Do not use it on other systems.
Otherwise, the systems may be damaged.
• Only the information that is configured with BIOS Setup Utility and the configuration information of
the Remote Management Controller can be stored/recovered. However, a user account for the
Remote Management Controller and the license information of the Remote Management Ctrl
Upgrade kit cannot be stored.
• Make sure to perform this operation only when the server is started with the "Server Management
Tools" disk. Do not run Server Management Tools on the server started from the hard disk or by the
other floppy disk. Otherwise, the system may be damaged.
• Do not eject a floppy disk while the floppy disk access LED is lit. Such an action may lead not only
to corruption of the floppy disk data but also an unstable state of the system.
• If an error message appears while running Server Management Tools, respond to the message
according to "
Server Management Tools error messages" (
Creating "Server Management Tools" disk
The "Server Management Tools" disk is required to be created when stated as "blank" on the label of the
"Server Management Tools" disk supplied with the server. Create the "Server Management Tools" disk
by referring to "4.4 Creating Maintenance Tools and Driver Disks" (
