ServerMaker
ServerMaker is an easy to use, Windows-based, interactive software configuration tool designed to lead
the user step-by-step through the DIGITAL NT Server configuration process. ServerMaker accurately and
easily configures single DIGITAL Servers or NT Clusters, and provides both pedestal and rackmount
configurations. ServerMaker has a point-and-click interface, and is robust, but not resource intensive. It
runs on any Microsoft Windows 95 or Windows NT industry standard desktop or notebook PC.
At the end of your ServerMaker session, you can generate a parts list. Price files are not included in
ServerMaker. However, you can obtain a copy of the DIGITAL Server price file (in Excel format) from
the DIGITAL Business Link, or your authorized Compaq representative to load into ServerMaker for
quoting purposes.
