Overview
Installation Support Tool for Windows is an automatic Windows installation tool
supplied with the PRIMEQUEST server.
Installation Support Tool for Windows requires that the parameters used for
installation be entered on a (32-bit) computer running Windows and saved on a floppy
disk in advance. This floppy disk is called the "installation floppy disk."
Using the installation floppy disk, Installation Support Tool for Windows enables
automatic installation of Windows on the PRIMEQUEST-series machine from the
Windows installation DVD. After Windows is installed, the PRIMEQUEST Software
Installer runs to install drivers and monitoring tools required for stable operation.
Installation using Installation Support Tool for Windows has the following
advantages:
•
Using an installation floppy disk that has been verified in advance can prevent
procedural mistakes during installation.
•
Operations for installing Windows in multiple partitions having the same
configuration are easy to perform.
•
Compared with installation using SystemcastWizard Lite, equipment handling is
easy because a single floppy disk contains the necessary data. No device other
than a USB floppy disk drive is required for installation.
Installation Support Tool for Windows is included in the following path on the
"PRIMEQUEST Drivers CD for Microsoft
®
Windows Server
®
2003" (C122-E024)
(referred to as the Drivers CD, in this document) supplied with the PRIMEQUEST
product:
E:\Tools\General\IST (where the CD-ROM drive is Drive E)
For details, see the Readme file and the PRIMEQUEST Installation Support Tool for
Windows User's Guide (C122-048EN).
