Setup and configuration overview
When you use the
ServerGuide Setup and Installation
CD, you do not need setup diskettes.
You can use the CD to configure any supported HUAWEI server model. The setup program
provides a list of tasks that are required to set up your server model. On a server with a
ServeRAID adapter or integrated SCSI controller with RAID capabilities, you can run the
SCSI RAID configuration program to create logical drives.
NOTE
Features and functions can vary slightly with different versions of the ServerGuide program.
Typical operating-system installation
The ServerGuide program can reduce the time it takes to install an operating system. It
provides the device drivers that are required for your hardware and for the operating system
that you are installing. This section describes a typical ServerGuide operating-system
installation.
NOTE
Features and functions can vary slightly with different versions of the
ServerGuide program.
Step 1
After you have completed the setup process, the operating-system installation program starts.
(You will need your operating-system CD to complete the installation.)
Step 2
The ServerGuide program stores information about the server model, service processor, hard
disk drive controllers, and network adapters. Then, the program checks the CD for newer
device drivers. This information is stored and then passed to the operating-system installation
program.
Step 3
The ServerGuide program presents operating-system partition options that are based on your
operating-system selection and the installed hard disk drives.
Step 4
The ServerGuide program prompts you to insert your operating-system CD and restart the
server. At this point, the installation program for the operating system takes control to
complete the installation.

program to install your operating system, complete the following steps to download the latest
