Copying the clone images from a remote image repository to the relevant
server blades (for further information see the RemoteDeploy manual on the
ServerBooks
DVD (version 5.210 or later)).
I
The optional RemoteDeploy software package can be obtained from
the Fujitsu Technology Solutions customer service center
(order number U15000-C286).
Reference Installation
A reference installation of a server blade performed using
ServerView Installation
Manager
is used as the basis for a clone image. The image is created and then
used by
RemoteDeploy
for fast installation and configuration of other server
blades.
I
For details on using
ServerView Installation Manager,
see the operating
manual for
ServerView Installation Manager
on the PRIMERGY
ServerBooks
DVD, which is part of the
PRIMERGY ServerView Suite
provided with each server system.
Preparing the Hardware
To implement initial installation of the server blade or perform subsequent
modifications, you must meet the the following conditions.
–
The relevant server blade must be connected to a CD-ROM drive and a
diskette drive via the USB/VGA interface.
–
A monitor, a keyboard and a mouse must be connected to KVM blade on the
rear of the BX600 basic unit.
–
the relevant server blade must be switched to by pressing the KVM button.
Perform the following steps to prepare the installation of a server blade:
Ê
Connect the breakout cable to the USB/VGA port on the front of the relevant
server blade (
figure 6 on page 29
).
Ê
Connect the data cable of the CD-ROM drive and, if required, also the floppy
disk drive to the USB ports of the breakout cable (see
figure 6 on page 29
).
Ê
Make sure that the basic unit is switched on.
Ê
To switch the server blade on, press the On/Off button on the control panel
(position 2 in
figure 7 on page 32
).
Ê
If the CD-ROM drive and the floppy disk drive are not supplied with power
via the USB ports of the breakout cable, connect them directly to the mains.
