Chapter 3: Setup and Installation
Installing via Virtual Media (Drive Redirection)
You can install the OS via Virtual Media through either the
IPMIview
(Java based client
utility),
SMCIPMItool
or the
Web-based Management Utility
. With this method, the OS is
installed from an ISO image that resides on another system/blade.
Refer to the manuals on your SuperBlade CD-ROM for further details on the Virtual
Media (CD-ROM or Drive Redirection) sections of these two utility programs.

Management Software
System management may be performed with either of three software packages:
IPMIview
,
SMCIPMItool
or a
Web-based Management Utility
. These are designed to
provide an administrator with a comprehensive set of functions and monitored data to
keep tabs on the system and perform management activities.
Refer to the manuals on your SuperBlade CD-ROM for further details on the various
functions provided by these management programs.

Configuring and Setting up RAID
Each blade module that supports two or more hard drives may be used to create a RAID
array. The procedures for doing this vary depending upon the blade model chosen for
your SuperBlade system.
See
Chapter 5
for details on how to configure and set up RAID on your blade module.
