performing recovery operation is possible for the internal hard disk unit without turning off the power
source of the server and the peripheral devices (hot pluggable).
● Hardware and Software Designed for Data Security
The locks on the rack and security (password) setting in the BIOS Setup Utility protect hardware and
data assets in the server against theft, ensuring data security with high reliability.
● Proactive Fan Function
When a fan fails or the ambient temperature rises, the system fan speed is increased automatically to
avoid increase in temperature in the server, ensuring stable server operation.

ServerStart for supporting setup and high reliability tools for avoiding problems during
server operation are supplied with this server.
1.2.1Setup Support Tool - ServerStart
ServerStart is a setup support tool that helps to install PRIMERGY.
It offers easy server installation and proper installation of recommended drivers.
■ Installing Using ServerStart
Using ServerStart when installing OS offers the following merits.
Not using ServerStart
Complicated hardware configuration (RAID configuration, etc.)
User definition, access privileges, network settings
It is necessary to input successively for installation,
resulting in more mistakes and longer time

ServerStart does not support to install Linux.
The OS which is not supported by the server cannot be installed.
A configuration file stores the server setup information configured in ServerStart. To create a
configuration file, use the ServerStart floppy disk supplied with this server. Store only one file on each
floppy disk. Do not set the ServerStart floppy disk to the write-protected state.
You can use any name for the configuration file. However, the file must be installed in the server as
"SerStartBatch.ini". When installing the configuration file, make sure to save it as "SerStartBatch.ini" on
the ServerStart floppy disk.
Start up ServerStart, insert the ServerStart floppy disk containing "SerStartBatch.ini", and click [Start] to
install the server.

■ Network Configuration
ServerStart can configure a network at server installation.
For details on available network patterns, refer to "Using ServerStart to Configure the Network".
■ Automatic Driver Installation
Recommended drivers for automatically recognized expansion cards are installed with the server. This
prevents possible mistakes in driver installation, such as installation of an older version or drivers which
were not supplied with this server.
■ Automatic RAID Configuration
By specifying the RAID type and the number of hard disk units before starting installation using an
onboard SAS controller, a disk array can be configured without starting the RAID utility.
■ Remote Installation
ServerStart can store resources necessary for installation, such as the OS and Service Pack, in a different
server on the network and install the OS via the network. This method is useful when the server does not
have a CD-ROM or floppy disk drive.

Chapter 1 Overview
1.2.2High Reliability Tools
High reliability tools are a comprehensively useful set of software for stable system operations of the
server. The following tools have respective roles to manage normal operations or recovery from errors:
• Server Monitoring Tool
• System Diagnosis Support Tools
• LAN Driver Advanced Setup Tools
■ Server Monitoring Tools
The server monitoring tools monitor the hardware status on behalf of the administrator and notify him/
her in the event of an error.
● Early Detection of a Server Failure [ServerView]
ServerView is software that protects important server resources by monitoring whether the server
hardware is in a normal state. When using ServerView, the server hardware is monitored all the time. If
an error that could cause trouble is detected, the administrator is notified in real-time. This allows the
server administrator to remove a system error early and avoid trouble.
For notes on ServerView safety, refer to "ServerView User's guide".
● Early Detection of a Disk Problem [RAID Management Tool]
RAID Management Tool is software that performs array configurations, disk initialization, and storage
system monitoring. When an event occurs, it leaves an event log in the event viewer's application logs.
At the same time, a pop-up window indicates a hard disk failure, rebuild status, etc.
■ System Diagnosis Support Tools
The system diagnosis support tool is for supporting system diagnosis during normal operation or in the
event of trouble.
● Early Solution to Problems [DSNAP]
DSNAP is a command line utility that collects all the troubleshooting information. System file
configuration information, major registry settings, and event logs can be collected easily from the
command line.
DSNAP is used for a support engineer to understand your system software configuration and settings
correctly and ensure smooth investigations when a problem occurs in your Windows Server 2003/
Windows 2000 Server system. Provide this with memory dump to your support engineer.
■ LAN Driver Advanced Setup Tools
LAN Driver Advanced Setup Tool sets details on the LAN, including the use of the Teaming function
and VLAN configuration.

Linux does not support batch installation with ServerStart.
ServerView must be configured after installation even when the high reliability tools have been
installed at once with ServerStart. Refer to "Chapter 6 High Reliability Tools" (pg.169).
When using ServerStart to install the OS, RAID Management Tool and ServerView are installed at a
time. These cannot be selected individually.
To use all functions of ServerView, "Java2 Runtime Environment Standard Edition" and "Web server"
are required. When using ServerStart to install a OS, "Java2 Runtime Environment Standard Edition"
is installed automatically. For Web servers, you can use either of the followings by selecting from the
menu.
• ServerView (for apache)
Install ServerView Web-Server (Web server for ServerView, Apache for Win32 base) and install
ServerView, and install ServerView using it.

Chapter 1 Overview
• ServerView (for IIS)
Install Microsoft Internet Information Server (IIS) supplied with Windows separately. ServerView is
installed with the setting to operate using the IIS installed on the system.
When IIS is not found in the system, ServerView Web-Server is installed even if "ServerView (for IIS)"
is selected. ServerView (for apache) is selected by default for guided mode. To install ServerView (for
IIS), select "RAID Management Tool/ServerView (for IIS)". If "RAID Management Tool/ServerView (for
IIS)" is selected, ServerView (for apache) is not installed.
