3 Installing Your Server

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

unpack and install your server.

 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 50MB maintenance partition.

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

 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 Upgrading Your Server, Chapter 9 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.

 Print “Installing Windows Server 2003” in Appendix D of your

User’s Guide. This guide contains supplemental instructions needed during the installation of your operating system.

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

CD-ROM device, reboot the system and follow 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.

2 Your System Documentation

 You may view and print the User’s Guide and EXPRESSBUILDER

User’s Guide from the EXPRESSBUILDER CD-ROM. To do this, insert the CD-ROM into the CD-ROM device on a system running a Microsoft® Windows® Operating System with Internet Explorer 4.01 or later installed. Do not boot from the EXPRESSBUILDER CD-ROM. Use Adobe® Acrobat® PDF viewer to view and 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.

 Read “Installing Windows Server 2003” in Appendix D of your User’s

Guide, before installing your operating system.

*On certain models.

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

Operating System (NOS), please follow the procedures in Chapter 5 of the system User’s Guide to set your RAID configuration. 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 information 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 EXPRESSBUILDER

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