Alternatively, if you have a workstation with the Microsoft Windows
operating system, you can insert the CD into that system and create the
diskettes on that system.
Running the SSU
When the SSU starts in the default local execution mode, the SSU
accepts input from the keyboard or mouse. The SSU presents a VGA-
based GUI on the primary monitor.
If you run the SSU from read-only media, such as the CD-ROM, you
cannot save user preference settings (such as screen colors).
The SSU supports ROM-DOS version 6.22. The SSU will not operate
from a “DOS box” running under an operating system such as
Windows.
Start the SSU using one of the following methods:
From diskettes: Insert the first SSU diskette in drive A and boot the
server from the diskette.
You are prompted to insert the second diskette. After loading
completes the SSU starts automatically.
From the System Resource or ASMe CD-ROM: Boot the server to
the System Resource CD and start the SSU from the Utilities menu.
From the Service Partition: Boot the server to the Service Partition
and execute the following DOS commands:
C:\> cd ssu
C:\SSU> ssu.bat
The mouse driver loads if it is available; press Enter to continue.
When the SSU title appears on the screen, press Enter to continue.
Working with the SSU Interface
You can access features of the SSU interface using the mouse or
keyboard:
Mouse-Click once to choose menu items and buttons or to select
items in a list, such as the Available Tasks list. To run a list item,
such as one of from the Available Tasks list, select the item and
