Introduction to Windows Server 2008
Windows Server 2008 builds on a solid foundation based on the strength and success of preceding
Windows server OSs while adding new functionality to the base OS. Designed to power the next
generation of network applications and web services, Windows Server 2008 will help administrators
manage and deliver a rich, more secure user experience that will help save time and reduce IT
infrastructure costs.
IMPORTANT
Windows Server 2008 uses DVD media and requires a server
configured with either a USB DVD-ROM or an IDE DVD-ROM for
local installations. For customers without IDE DVD-capable servers,
copy the Windows Server 2008 media to a network share.
Current iLO firmware contains support for virtual DVD media;
however, the installation is much slower than local installations.
3
Server Core Installations
Windows Server 2008 offers server core as a minimum installation option providing a reduced, more
secure OS footprint. Administrators utilize the command line to install select roles and features on a
server-core-based server.
For additional information about command line, see the Microsoft website:
The Server Core installation is not available for Itanium-based
systems.
Server Roles
Server roles allow an administrator to customize a server during the OS installation. After Windows
Server 2008 completes the initial setup tasks (partition creation and file copy), the system reboots and
presents the administrator with the GUI-based Initial Configuration Tasks wizard. From this wizard, an
administrator may set the system password, set up TCP/IP, join a domain, and add server roles to the
system. Administrators may utilize Server Manager in Windows Server 2008 for adding server roles
and features after initial server installation.
For more information on server roles, as well as other changes, refer to the Microsoft website:
Windows Server 2008 introduces a new type of domain controller (DC), the read-only domain
controller (RODC). This DC hosts read-only partitions of the Active Directory Domain Services (ADDS)
database. An RODC provides a secure solution for DC deployments to remote sites that require fast
and reliable authentication but do not necessarily have adequate physical security for the deployed
servers.
Additional information is available on the Microsoft website:
Microsoft has updated the TCP/IP stack in Windows Server 2008. For more information on the next
generation TCP/IP stack in Windows Server 2008, visit the Microsoft website:
NDIS 6.0 is the next major version of the Network Driver Interface Specification. HP has updated the
Windows Server 2008-capable network adapter drivers to meet the NDIS 6.0 requirements. A list of
supported network adapters may be found in Table 5. For more information on NDIS 6.0, visit the
Microsoft website:
Windows Server 2008 provides support for the next generation TCP/IP protocol stack known as
Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6). Administrators should be aware that IPv6 support is enabled by
default in a Windows Server 2008 installation. It cannot be uninstalled but may be disabled. For
more information on IPv6, visit the Microsoft website:
Windows Hardware Error Architecture is a new feature added to Windows Server 2008 that
provides a common infrastructure for hardware errors on Windows platforms.
The initial implementation of WHEA focuses on platform hardware devices, including processor,
memory, cache, and system interconnects such as PCI, PCI-X, and PCI Express. Peripheral device
errors remain under the control of their respective device drivers.
WHEA provides several benefits:
• A generic error source discovery mechanism
• A common hardware error record format and error handling flow
• A persistence mechanism for preserving error records
• A hardware error event tracking model based on Event Tracing for Windows (ETW)
Not all HP servers that support Windows Server 2008 will be WHEA compatible.
WHEA-capable ProLiant servers. HP has updated the following deliverables in support of WHEA:
Table 2 lists the
• System ROMs for specific ProLiant server platforms planned for WHEA support (see
• iLO firmware (version 1.42 or later)
• iLO 2 Management Controller Driver for Windows Server 2008 [hpqilo2.sys, Version 1.5 (or later)]

Supported components for ProLiant servers
Software drivers
HP recommends administrators utilize the drivers on the Windows Server 2008 media installation
when applicable. HP ProLiant Support Pack for Microsoft Windows Server 2008 Version 8.00 is
supported with Windows Server 2008.
Management software
With the initial launch of Windows Server 2008, the HP Insight Control Management Software
portfolio for the HP ProLiant and HP BladeSystem infrastructure deploys, monitors, and manages
Windows Server 2008 servers. For example, ProLiant servers running Windows Server 2008 can be
managed by HP Systems Insight Manager (HP SIM) if the management agents are installed on the
server. Also the HP Rapid Deployment Pack (RDP) can deploy Windows Server 2008 servers.
Throughout the summer of 2008, the Insight Control Management Software portfolio will continue to
add support for installation and operation on the Windows Server 2008 operating system. Users
should review the quickspecs for each management software product to verify Windows Server 2008
support. For more information on the Insight Control Management Software portfolio, visit
www.hp.com/go/insightcontrol.

IPMI and WS-Management
Microsoft WS-Management is an extensible web-based standard management protocol for monitoring
system hardware. The following are key terms an administrator should recognize when working with
WS-Management:
•Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) – A set of common interfaces to computer
hardware that is used to monitor and manage system health.
•Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) – A micro-controller that monitors the system and allows
for intelligent platform management.
• IPMI Driver – The driver that enables communication between the BMC device and the OS.
• IPMI Provider – As defined by Microsoft, “a user-mode COM DLL that implements a high-level
abstraction of the IPMI data using the standard IPMI CIM profile.”
15
IPMI and WS-Management for the HP ProLiant 100 Series servers
The HP ProLiant 100 Series servers listed in Table 6 contain a Baseboard Management Controller
(BMC).

ProLiant ML110 G4 ML110G4 06/05/06
HP IPMI Provider for HP BladeSystem servers and ProLiant 300 and 500
Series servers
For HP BladeSystem servers and ProLiant 300 and 500 Series servers that do not contain IPMI
hardware, the IPMI Provider is required for IPMI functionality. The HP IPMI Provider emulates the
Microsoft IPMI Provider by collecting IPMI data from the HP System Management Controller Driver
and making it available through the “root\hardware” WMI namespace.
ProLiant 300 and 500 Series G4 servers and older require the IPMI Provider that is included in the
Windows Server 2008 PSP 8.00.
Failover Clustering
Failover clustering is available in the Enterprise and Datacenter editions of Windows Server 2008.
Installed through the Add Features menu in Server Manager, failover clustering allows multiple servers
to work together to increase the availability of applications and services. Windows Server 2008
failover clustering does not support parallel SCSI-based storage solutions. Only SCSI-3 commandcapable storage functions with Windows Server 2008 failover clustering.
HP delivers intelligent fault resilience with its High Availability Clustering product solutions and kits
built on industry standard ProLiant servers running Windows Server 2008 and Smart Array Cluster
Storage, or StorageWorks platforms integrated with HP management tools.
Administrators should review the Microsoft documentation for failover clustering at:
Storage that was compatible with server clusters in Windows
Server 2003 might not be compatible with failover clusters in
Windows Server 2008.
16
Storage requirements
Ensure that the following conditions are met for failover clusters:
• Because improvements in failover clusters require that the storage respond correctly to specific SCSI
commands, the storage must follow the SCSI Primary Commands-3 (SPC-3) standard. In particular,
the storage must support Persistent Reservations as specified in the SPC-3 standard.
• The miniport driver used for the storage must work with the Microsoft Storport storage driver.
• Servers from different clusters must not be able to access the same storage devices (isolate storage
devices, one cluster per device). In most cases, a Logical Unit Number (LUN) that is used for one set
of cluster servers should be isolated from all other servers through LUN masking or zoning.
NOTE
Before starting, the storage administrator must configure several
shared LUNs. It is important that all cluster nodes have access to
the LUNs, and that the host connections are configured to follow
the SPC-3 standard.
Configuring EVA host connections
Make sure the Windows LH Host mode is enabled for each node on the Enterprise Virtual Array
(EVA) through command view. Depending on what command view you have installed, if in the dropdown there is no "Microsoft Windows LH" then choose custom and type in the custom type field the
following HEX number 00000004198009A8 (Figure 1). If the wrong connection type is configured,
you cannot share the disks between the cluster nodes and the cluster check will fail with a non-SCSI-3
compliant message.
Figure 1. Configuring EVA host properties

Windows Server 2008 installation for 32-bit and 64-bit
editions on ProLiant servers
Server deployment of Windows Server 2008 is supported through manual and assisted path
installation options. Use the steps below to complete a manual install of Windows Server 2008.
Pre-installation tasks
To prepare for installation, ensure that the following conditions are met:
The server selected for installation is listed as a recommended system platform in

Installation procedure
To install the Windows Server 2008 installation (for 32-bit and 64-bit editions), complete the
following steps:
1. Make sure that the server has a DVD drive (either native to the system or attached).
NOTE
A license key may be required to use iLO virtual media with HP
ProLiant ML or HP ProLiant DL servers.
2. Place the Windows Server 2008 media into the DVD drive and boot the server to the DVD to
begin the installation.

Installing the PSP
Once you download the PSP self-extracting executable, complete the following steps:
1. Go to the directory where the PSP executable is saved.
NOTE
When installing the PSP on a system running Server Core, you
must execute the executables rather than double-clicking on
them. Also, on Server Core systems, you will not be able to
specify the location for extracting the PSP files. The files will be
extracted to the same location as the PSP self-extracting
executable.
2. Double-click the executable and extract the PSP to a desired location.
3. Go to the directory where the extracted PSP is located.
4. Double-click setup.exe to start the PSP deployment.
NOTE
All PSP files must be present in the same directory as the
setup.exe program for the PSP to be properly installed.
5. As the PSP deployment starts, it performs an inventory of the available updates and checks the
local system to see what hardware and software is installed.
6. After the inventory and discovery processes finish, the “Select Installation Hosts” screen appears.
You can select either the local host or one (or more) remote hosts for PSP deployment.
7. After selecting the host(s), the “Select bundle filter” screen appears information about the PSP
bundle to be installed. Select the bundle and the appropriate filter options. For remote
deployments, additional screens allow users to update information on a per-host basis.
8. After selecting the bundle for all hosts being updated, open the “Select Items to be Installed”
screen to complete the following tasks:
– Select the components to be installed.
– If necessary, configure the components.
NOTE
The Configure Now link will not be presented when running
Microsoft Windows Server 2008 with the Server Core option.
To configure components to be deployed on this OS
configuration, you must access the system as a remote host
using HP Smart Update Manager running on a system with a
supported Windows OS and then configure the components
before deployment.
– Review failed dependencies before installation.
– Review the revision history of the components.
9. After selecting the components to install, click Install to proceed with the installation. Once the
installation completes, the Installation Results screen appears. If the PSP installs successfully, the
process is complete.
21
10. If one (or more) component(s) did not install successfully, complete the following steps:
– Exit HP Smart Update Manager.
– Make corrections to your environment.
– Restart the application to install the components that had problems.
