Chapter 3 OS Installation Using ServerStart

3.5 Installation on Multiple (the

Second and Subsequent) Servers

This chapter explains how to perform installation on multiple servers using

ServerStart.

By editing the configuration file created for installation on the first server, you can use

it for installation on other servers of the same model and configuration. This reduces

the setup time. However, installation on the first server must be performed using

ServerStart in guided or preconfiguration mode.

Check that ServerStart supplied with the first server is of the same version as that supplied with the

other servers. If the version is different, this installation method will not work.

3.5.1 Preparation for Installation

■

Required Software

The following software is required for installation on the second and subsequent servers. Be sure to have

these items close at hand.

• CD-ROM for the OS to be installed

• ServerStart CD-ROM

• ServerStart floppy disk

A: ServerStart floppy disk containing the configuration file used for installation on the first server

B: ServerStart floppy disks supplied with the ServerStart CD-ROMs for the second and subsequent

servers

If ServerStart floppy disks are not supplied, prepare as many floppy disks as there are servers.

• PRIMERGY Document & Tool CD (for installing ServerView)

• Windows Service Pack CD-ROM

■

Preparatory Procedure

Perform the following procedure before installation.

Using Explorer or Command Prompt, copy the ServerStart floppy disk (A) to the ServerStart floppy disk

(B).
