Run Configuration Assistant and Installation Assistant
Insert the HP NetServer Navigator CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive. Turn the
power off, wait 10 seconds, and turn the power on again. If the system fails to
start, follow the instructions on the screen.
1. When HP NetServer Navigator starts, you may need to set the language,
time, and date. Follow the onscreen instructions. You can also change the
language of the BIOS when prompted.
2. Go to the HP NetServer Navigator Main Menu and select "Configuration
Assistant and Installation Assistant."
3. Follow the onscreen instructions in Configuration Assistant to continue
your NetServer installation.
Express Configuration
Express configuration is the preferred method to configure your NetServer, since
it leads you through the configuration process in sequence and offers you default
selections. Express configuration includes the following steps:
• Select NOS: You will be asked to select the NOS and version that you
plan to install.
• Select NOS Installation Mode: For certain versions of Novell NetWare /
IntranetWare and Microsoft Windows NT Server, you will be asked:
Would you like to use HP’s automated mode of NOS
installation?
◊ Select Yes for automated NOS installation, which will guide you
through the NOS installation, set up the hard disk drive, and configure
your NOS with appropriate drivers for HP-bundled configurations.
Perform an automated NOS installation for first-time installation of
Novell NetWare / IntranetWare or Microsoft Windows NT Server on a
factory-configured NetServer, or one to which you have added a
Network Interface card listed on HP’s Tested Products List (TPL). This
installation also loads the Local Support Tool onto Windows NT or
NetWare systems. The Local Support Tool is a stand-alone support
tool accessed directly from the NetServer. It gives you information to
help you manage the NetServer.
