7. Follow the instructions given by the setup wizard until the program is installed.
Windows NT Server failover setup: To install the IBM Netfinity 10/100 Fault
Tolerant Adapter device drivers:
1. Add the redundant NIC adapter according to the instructions provided with the
adapter and in “Working with adapters” on page 53.
2. Use the ServerGuide CDs to install the AMD PCNet Ethernet Family adapter
device driver. (Refer to the ServerGuide topic.)
3. Do not select the Grouping box at this point; you must first restart the server.
4. From the Windows NT Server desktop, select Control Panel, then select the
Network icon, and then select the Adapters tab.
5. Highlight one of the adapters that will be in the redundant pair and then click
the Properties... button.
6. Click the Grouping check box to select it. This will show the possible
combinations for redundant pairs.
7. Select the adapter pair you want and then select OK. Note that the integrated
Ethernet controller is located at PCI bus A, slot 2.
Two options are available for recovering from a failover condition. The options
are determined by the Enable for DMI / Hot Swap Support check box. If the
IBM Hot Plug PCI for Windows NT Server 4.0 package is installed, this check
box will appear at the bottom of the Adapter Properties panel. If you do not
have the IBM Hot Plug PCI for Windows NT Server 4.0 package installed on
your server, you will not see the Enable for DMI / Hot Swap Support check box.
If the Enable for DMI / Hot Swap Support check box is not checked or is not
present, traffic will automatically switch back to the primary adapter when the
primary link status is restored. In this mode, the adapter cannot be
hot-swapped. Users with the IBM Hot Plug PCI for Windows NT Server 4.0
package installed should check the Enable for DMI / Hot Swap Support check
box.
If the Enable for DMI / Hot Swap Support check box is checked, traffic will
remain on the secondary adapter until the user directs it to return to the primary
adapter. This can be done after the hot-swap replacement of the primary
adapter or by using the DMI interface.
8. Select Close to exit from the Network setup.
When you restart the server, the failover function will be in effect.
If a failover occurs, a message is written to the NT Event Viewer log. In addition, if
the Enable for DMI / Hot Swap Support check box is checked, a DMI alert will also
be generated.

1. Add the redundant NIC adapter according to the instructions provided with the
adapter and in “Working with adapters” on page 53.
2. Load the device driver by using the following command:
LOAD

where d and path are the drive and path where the driver is located, and x and
y are the PCI slot numbers where the redundant pair is located.
