Setup
and
configuration
overview
When
you
use
the
ServerGuide
Setup
and
Installation
CD,
you
do
not
need
setup
diskettes.
You
can
use
the
CD
to
configure
any
supported
IBM
server
model.
The
setup
program
provides
a
list
of
tasks
that
are
required
to
set
up
your
server
model.
On
a
server
with
a
SAS/SATA
controller
with
RAID
capabilities,
you
can
run
the
LSI
Logic
Configuration
Utility
program
to
create
logical
drives.
Note:
Features
and
functions
can
vary
slightly
with
different
versions
of
the
ServerGuide
program.
When
you
start
the
ServerGuide
Setup
and
Installation
CD,
the
program
prompts
you
to
complete
the
following
tasks:
v
Select
your
language.
v
Select
your
keyboard
layout
and
country.
v
View
the

file
to
review
installation
tips
for
your
operating
system
and
adapter.
v
Start
the
operating-system
installation.
You
will
need
your
operating-system
CD.
Typical
operating-system
installation
The
ServerGuide
program
can
reduce
the
time
it
takes
to
install
an
operating
system.
It
provides
the
device
drivers
that
are
required
for
your
hardware
and
for
the
operating
system
that
you
are
installing.
This
section
describes
a
typical
ServerGuide
operating-system
installation.
Note:
Features
and
functions
can
vary
slightly
with
different
versions
of
the
ServerGuide
program.
1.
After
you
have
completed
the
setup
process,
the
operating-system
installation
program
starts.
(You
will
need
your
operating-system
CD
to
complete
the
installation.)
2.
The
ServerGuide
program
stores
information
about
the
server
model,
service
processor,
hard
disk
drive
controllers,
and
network
adapters.
Then,
the
program
checks
the
CD
for
newer
device
drivers.
This
information
is
stored
and
then
passed
to
the
operating-system
installation
program.
3.
The
ServerGuide
program
presents
operating-system
partition
options
that
are
based
on
your
operating-system
selection
and
the
installed
hard
disk
drives.
4.
The
ServerGuide
program
prompts
you
to
insert
your
operating-system
CD
and
restart
the
server.
At
this
point,
the
installation
program
for
the
operating
system
takes
control
to
complete
the
installation.
Installing
your
operating
system
without
using
ServerGuide
If
you
have
already
configured
the
server
hardware
and
you
are
not
using
the
ServerGuide
program
to
install
your
operating
system,
complete
the
following
steps
to
download
the
latest
operating-system
installation
instructions
from
the
IBM
Web
site.
Note:
Changes
are
made
periodically
to
the
IBM
Web
site.
The
actual
procedure
might
vary
slightly
from
what
is
described
in
