Server Installation
IMPORTANT:
The SmartStart and Support Software CD (recommended) or the RBSU
that is embedded in the server ROM can be used to configure certain system features.
Step 2 applies only to users who choose to configure their servers with the SmartStart and
Support Software CD.
IMPORTANT:
The optional CD-ROM/diskette or DVD-ROM/diskette drive assemblies
must be installed to use SmartStart software.
2.
Place the SmartStart and Support Software CD in the CD-ROM/diskette or
DVD-ROM/diskette drive and power up the server. Follow the onscreen
instructions to complete the server initialization process. For SmartStart and
Support Software CD initialization procedures, refer to the Server Setup and
Management pack shipped with the server or refer to Chapter 5, “Server
Configuration and Utilities.”
3.
Run the ROM-Based Setup Utility (RBSU) by pressing the
F9
key when
prompted. Use RBSU to identify the type of operating system and set the date
and time. For information on using the RBSU to configure other server features,
refer to Chapter 5, “Server Configuration and Utilities.”
4.
Install the operating system.
5.
Install Insight Manager to manage the server. For Management CD initialization
procedures, refer to the Server Setup and Management pack shipped with the
server.
IMPORTANT:
Insight Manager must be installed to benefit from Pre-Failure Warranties
on processors, hard drives, and memory modules.
6.
Install any application software needed.
7.
Register the server. Refer to the “Registering the Server” section later in this
chapter.
