Chapter 2 Checking before OS Installation
●
Hardware Configuration
• Only internal hard disk units can be used.
• Be sure to use hard disk units of the same model and with the same capacity.
■
Notes
• When a RAID-configured disk is used
Hard disk units that have been used before may have unwanted partition information or array
configuration information, which may cause unexpected problems. If you connect any hard disk units
with usage history to this server, format them at low level on another system before connecting them
to the server. For low-level formatting, refer to the manual supplied with the other system to be used.
• To remove disks
When configuring RAID in ServerStart, the array initialization utilizes the background initialization
function. Before removing the disk units, confirm that the initialization is complete using the RAID
Management Tool.
• Number of disk units
If the number of actually installed units is smaller than the setting for the number of units (+1 when a
hot spare is specified), installation using ServerStart is aborted because of an error.
When the number of installed disk units is greater than the setting, the disk units are set up according
to the setting. Extra units will be configured as standby disk units. You can add a physical pack later.
2.3.4 Notes on a Multiple LAN Adapter Configuration
Using the OS installation wizard of ServerStart, you can configure multiple LAN adapters (network
adapters) on the system. However, there are the following limitations.
●
Adapter Numbers
To configure multiple LAN cards, select the adapter numbers in order of Adapter 1 and Adapter 2, and
enter settings for each adapter. Note that the order of adapter numbers is not necessarily the same as the
order of slots for the installed LAN adapters. This means that the setting for Adapter 1 is not always
applied to the onboard LAN. After installing the OS, check the LAN adapters to make sure that they are
configured as intended.
2.3.5 Cautions for Using ServerStart
■
Operating ServerStart
Most ServerStart operations are performed with the mouse. Items may not be moved with the [Tab] key
or cursor keys. Be sure to use the mouse when operating ServerStart.
