ServerGuide features
Features and functions can vary slightly with different versions of the ServerGuide
program. To learn more about the version that you have, start the
ServerGuide
Setup and Installation
CD and view the online overview. Not all features are
supported on all server models.
The ServerGuide program requires a supported IBM server with an enabled
startable (bootable) CD drive. In addition to the
ServerGuide Setup and Installation
CD, you must have the operating-system CD to install the operating system.

configuration program

whether a later level is available from the CD

adapters and devices
v
Provides diskette-free installation for supported Windows operating systems
v
Includes an online readme file with links to tips for your hardware and operating
system 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 the server model.
On a server with a ServeRAID adapter or integrated SAS/SATA controller with RAID
capabilities, you can run the Adaptec RAID configuration programs to create logical
drives.
