Notes
• When a RAID-configured disk is used
Hard disk units that have been used before may have unwanted partition information or array
configuration information, which may cause unexpected problems. If you connect any hard disk units
with usage history to this server, format them at low level on another system before connecting them
to the server. For information on how to format the hard disk units, refer to the manual supplied with
the system to be used.
• To remove the disks
When configuring RAID using ServerStart, use the background initialization function to initialize the
array. Confirm that the initialization is completed using a tool, such as RAID management utility,
before removing the disks.
For details, refer to "Integrated Mirroring SAS User’s Guide" in the Array Controller Document &
Tool CD.
2.3.3 Notes on a Multiple LAN Adapter Configuration
Using the OS installation wizard of ServerStart, you can configure multiple LAN adapters (network
adapters) on the system. However, there are the following limitations.
z
Adapter Numbers
To configure multiple LAN cards, select the adapter numbers in order of Adapter 1 and Adapter 2, and
enter settings for each adapter. Note that the order of adapter numbers is not necessarily the same as the
order of slots for the installed LAN adapters. This means that the setting for Adapter 1 is not always
applied to the onboard LAN. After installing the OS, check the LAN adapters to make sure that they are
configured as intended.
2.3.4 Cautions for Using ServerStart
„
Operating ServerStart
Most ServerStart operations are performed with the mouse. Items may not be moved with the [Tab] key
or cursor keys. Be sure to use the mouse when operating ServerStart.

Ejecting the CD-ROM
Do not eject the ServerStart CD-ROM while ServerStart is running. If the ServerStart CD-ROM is
ejected and inserted again, ServerStart starts up in multiple windows, and settings you have made can be
lost.
„
ServerStart CD-ROM
ServerStart supplied with this server contains Disc 1 and Disc 2.
Disc 1 creates a configuration file and installs the OS.
When required, insert Disc 2 during the installation.
