You can start the ServeRAID Configuration program in one
of three ways. Choose one of these startup methods, and
follow the appropriate instructions.
Ÿ
During the initial startup of the server using
ServerGuide (see “During the initial startup of the
server”).
Ÿ
After an operating system is installed using
ServerGuide (see “After an operating system is
installed”).
Ÿ
Using diskettes (see “Using diskettes to start the
ServeRAID Configuration program”).
During the initial startup of the server:
Using ServerGuide, insert the HardwareGuide CD in the
CD-ROM drive and start the server. Follow the
instructions in the serverGuide package to start the
ServeRAID Configuration program.

Notes
1. Ensure that the CD-ROM is enabled as the
startup drive. (See “Start options” on page 97
for additional information.)
2. If a screen appears asking you to select an
operating system, select the operating system
that you have installed. This does not reinstall
the operating system. This is for information
only.
Insert the HardwareGuide CD in the CD-ROM drive and
start the server. Follow the instructions in the serverGuide
package to start the ServeRAID Configuration Program.

Using diskettes to start the ServeRAID
Configuration program:
If you choose to use
diskettes to configure the ServeRAID controller, you must
first make the ServeRAID diskettes. You can make the
diskettes using the Diskette Factory feature of
ServerGuide. Refer to the serverGuide documentation for
instructions. You can also download the diskette images
from the World Wide Web. See “Online support” on
