3 Installing Your Server

❏ Follow the Server Setting Up information in your User’s Guide to

unpack and install your server. The keys for the server are located
behind the front door.

❏ If your server includes Network Operating System software

preloaded at the factory, it will boot-up to the operating system
license agreement screen. Follow the screen prompts and Software
Notes to complete loading of your operating system. Servers that
include Network Operating System software preloaded at the
factory, include a 10MB (minim um size) maintenance partition.

If your system does not include Network Operating System
software, create a maintenance partition using EXPRESSBUILDER,
before loading the operating system.

❏ Most options ordered with your server are already installed. If you

have additional adapter boards and devices for your server, install
them before putting the server in the location you have selected.
Follow the procedures in the Upgrades and Options chapter of the
system User’s Guide, plus installation inserts and vendor
documents that came with the option.

4 Running the EXPRESSBUILDER CD-ROM

❏ Run the EXPRESSBUILDER CD-ROM to:

! Ensure correct hardware setup if you installed additional adapter

boards or devices in Step 3.

! Create driver diskettes needed during the installation of your

Network Operating System (NOS), if your NOS was not
factory-installed. Note: Always create a maintenance partition
using EXPRESSBUILDER, before loading the operating system.

❏ To run the EXPRESSBUILDER CD-ROM, insert the CD-ROM into

the CD-ROM device, reboot the system and f ollow the screen
prompts.

Note: If you received system diskettes with your server, these
diskettes provide the latest available system utilities information.
Use these diskettes instead of running the system utilities from the
EXPRESSBUILDER CD-ROM.

Configuration Guide and E

XPRESSBUILDER CD-ROM. To do this, insert the CD-ROM into the CD-ROM

E

E
print the documents. If you do not have Adobe Acrobat PDF viewer, select
“Install Adobe Acrobat Reader” on the CD-ROM to install the reader.

❏ Read the System Release Notes. The System Release Notes provide the

latest available system information.

❏ Read the Software Notes**. The Software Notes provide information on

configuring and running software preloaded on your system.

**On certain models.

XPRESSBUILDER User’s Guide from the

ICMB

❑ If your server includes a RAID controller and a preloaded Network

Operating System (NOS), the RAID level configured at the factory is
described in your User’s Guide. If your system does not include a
preloaded Network Operating System, the RAID array is configured
as RAID 7. Changing the RAID level on servers that include a NOS,
will require reloading the NOS. Refer to inform ation in the RAID
controller documentation.

5 Installing Application Software

❏ Locate application software media and accompanying installation

procedures. Install application software following procedures in the
applicable installation guide.

❏ If your Network Administrator advises, locate the ESMPRO

CD-ROM and install your server management software.
Your server installation is now complete.
