Handling static-sensitive devices

Attention: Static electricity can damage electronic devices and your system. To avoid damage, keep static-sensitive devices in their static protective bags until you are ready to install them.

To reduce the possibility of electrostatic discharge, observe the following precautions:

• Limit your movement. Movement can cause static electricity to build up around you.

• Handle the device carefully, holding it by its ed ges or its frame.

• Do not touch solder joints, pins, or exposed printed circuitry.

• Do not leave the device where others can handle and possibly damage the device.

• While the device is still in its anti-static bag, touch it lo an unpainted metal part of

the system unit for at least two seconds. (This drains static electricity from the package and from your body.)

• Remove the device from its package and install it directly into your system unit without setting it down. If it is necessary to set the device down, place it on its static-protective bag. (If your device is an adapter, place it component side up.) Do not place the device on your system unit cover or on a metal table.

• Take additional care when handling devices during cold weather because heating reduces indoor humidity and increases static electricity.

Chapter 4. Configuring your server

The ServerGuide CDs provide software setup tools and installation tools that are specifically designed for your IBM server. Use these CDs during the initial installation of your server to configure basic hardware features and to simplify your network operating system installation. (See “U sin g the ServerGuide CDs” for more information . ) T h e Se r ve r G u ide CDs also co nt ai n a c o ll e c t i on of applicatio n programs, which you can install after your server is up and runn ing.

In addition to the ServerGuide CDs, you can use the following configuration programs to customize your server hardware:

• Configuration/Setup Utility

The Configuration/Setup Utility program is part of the basic input/output system (BIOS) code that comes with your server. You can use this program to configure serial and parallel port assignments, change interrupt request (IRQ) settings, change the drive startup sequence, set the date and time, and set passwords.

• SCSISelect Utility

With the built-in SCSISelect Utility program, you can configure the devices that are attached to the integrated SCSI controller. Use this program to change default values, and resolve configuration conflicts.

• ServeRAID programs

If you install an optional ServeRAID adapter, you must use the ServeRAID configuration program to define and configure your disk-array subsystem before you install your operating system.

Attention: Refer to the User’s Re f erence on the xSeries Documentation CD for more information about using the co nfiguration programs and ServerGuide CDs.

Using the ServerGuide CDs

The ServerGuide CDs provide state-of-the-art programs to detect the server model and hardwa re options that are installed, configure xSeries server hardware, p ro vide device drivers, and install your network operating system (NOS).

Note: If the ServerGuide CD does not start, see “ServerGuide startup problems” on

page 25.
