5. Go to the appliance server and insert the Recovery CD into the CD-ROM drive;
then, insert the recovery-enablement diskette into the diskette drive of the
appliance server.
6. Restart the appliance server. The recovery process begins automatically, and the
preinstalled software is restored. After the preinstalled software is restored, the
system restarts automatically, and all final operating-system configuration
changes are performed.
Note: The recovery-enablement diskette is a one-use-only diskette. To use the
Recovery CD again, you need to run the DiskCreator.exe file from the
Supplementary CD.
When the appliance server restarts, a series of configuration and system-preparation
programs configure the network operating system automatically. This process takes
at least 15 minutes and must finish running before you can use any included
applications such as the Advanced Appliance Configuration Utility or Terminal
Services to connect or configure the xSeries 130. This applies the first time the
xSeries 130 is started after the
Recovery CD is used.
Recovering your appliance server without DiskCreator
If you do not have one of the supported operating systems, you can use the following
procedure to create a recovery-enablement diskette and recover the preinstalled
software on your appliance server:
1. Insert a blank diskette into the diskette drive on a workstation other than the
appliance server; then, format the diskette as a DOS diskette.
2. Insert the Supplementary CD into the CD-ROM drive in the workstation, and copy
either the
reload.on
file or the
manufact.ure
file from the \Recovery Enablement
directory on the CD to the diskette.
Attention: When you start the appliance server with the Recovery CD in the CD-
ROM drive and the recovery-enablement diskette in the diskette drive, the
recovery process starts. If you copy the
reload.on file to the diskette, the
recovery process installs the operating system, but does not delete the data
partition D:. If you copy the
manufact.ure
file to the diskette, the recovery process
deletes all partitions on the first hard disk in the appliance server and installs the
operating system.
3. Go to the appliance server and insert the Recovery CD into the CD-ROM drive;
then, insert the recovery-enablement diskette into the diskette drive of the
appliance server.
4. Restart the appliance server. The recovery process begins automatically, and the
preinstalled software is restored. After the preinstalled software is restored, the
system restarts automatically, and all final operating-system configuration
changes are performed.
Note: The recovery-enablement diskette is a one-use-only diskette. To use the
Recovery CD again, you need to run the DiskCreator.exe file from the
Supplementary CD.
When the appliance server restarts, a series of configuration and system-preparation
programs configure the network operating system automatically. This process takes
at least 15 minutes and must finish running before you can use any included
applications such as the Advanced Appliance Configuration Utility or Terminal
Services to connect or configure the xSeries 130. This applies the first time the
xSeries 130 is started after the
Recovery CD is used.
