1. Connect a SCSI cable to the appropriate SCSI-2 host on the system board.
•
For the system board in slot 0, this is an SBus card installed in an
appropriate SBus slot.
•
For system boards in slots 1 through 3, use the on-board SCSI-2 port or an
SBus card installed in an appropriate SBus slot.
Figure 2-7 shows the location of the onboard SCSI connector on the system
board.
2. Connect the other end of the SCSI cable to the external SCSI-2 device.
You can now power on the system and test your server. Follow instructions in
the following chapters to configure your server.
2.8 Precautions for JumpStart Automatic Installation
This system is able to use the JumpStart™ automatic installation feature
described in installation documents for Solaris® software. The software that
enables this feature is present on a hard disk in your system.
JumpStart will run only when the system is powered on for the first time.
Caution – JumpStart may incorrectly install the system as a standalone
workstation. You must prevent JumpStart automatic installation from
proceeding if the appropriate server-specific configuration information is not
in place. Information about the JumpStart feature is provided on a card, titled
JumpStart Installation Instructions, provided with the system documentation set.
To prevent JumpStart installation from occurring unintentionally:
•
Do not connect your system to a network when you power it on initially.
•
Do not place a Solaris release CD-ROM in a drive when you first power on
the machine.
Note – If JumpStart automatic installation does begin, interrupt it by pressing
L1-A (Stop-A), and then perform a manual installation when you are ready.
If JumpStart completes the installation incorrectly, you would probably need to
reinstall Solaris manually.
