Chapter 5. Using the Recovery and Supplementary CDs
This chapter describes the applications included on the xSeries 150 Supplementary
and Recovery CDs, and how and when you should use them.
Note: The IBM xSeries 150 is a preloaded appliance server. Changing the preloaded
software configuration in any way, including applying or installing
unauthorized service packs or updates to preinstalled software, or installing
additional software products that are not included in either the preloaded
image or on the Supplementary CD is not supported and could cause
unpredictable results. To correct problems with a preloaded software
component, you must backup your user and system data; then, use the
Recovery CD to restore the preloaded software image. You can obtain IBM
authorized updates for this preloaded appliance from the following site:

Using the Recovery Enablement Diskette and Recovery CD
The Recovery CD is a startable CD that contains the preload image for your xSeries
150 and is used to recover the preloaded image on your server. You must start your
server using the Recovery Enablement Diskette before you will be able to use the
Recovery CD.
To recover the preloaded image on your server:
1. Insert the diskette into the diskette drive and restart the server.
When the Recovery Enablement Diskette has completed loading and
reconfiguring your server startup sequence the server will begin beeping. Do not
continue with this procedure until the server begins beeping.
2. Remove the Recovery Enablement Diskette from the diskette drive.
3. Place the Recovery CD in the CD-ROM drive and restart the server.
The recovery process will begin automatically and the original manufacturing
preload will be restored. After the preload image is restored the system restarts
automatically and all final operating system configuration changes are performed.
The Recovery Enablement Diskette enables the xSeries 150 to start from the CD-
ROM drive. You will not be able to restore the preload image from the Recovery
CD without first restarting the server using the Recovery Enablement Diskette.
