Cleaning the screen
If your computer screen is an LCD, use only a damp, soft cloth to clean it. Never spray water
directly onto the screen.
- OR -
If your computer screen is not an LCD, use a soft cloth dampened with glass cleaner to clean
the screen. Never spray cleaner directly onto the screen.
Cleaning the tape drive
If you use a tape drive to back up your files, regular maintenance will lengthen the life of the
drive. To maintain the drive’s reliability:
• Clean the drive monthly with the cleaning cartridge included with the drive.
• Remove the tape from the drive whenever the drive is not in use.
Preparing for system recovery
If your system files are corrupted, you may not be able to start the server from the hard drive.
Use the Server Companion DVD to start the server and attempt to fix the problem.
Recording the BIOS configuration
To help keep track of your custom changes to BIOS settings and to prepare for system recovery,
you should record your BIOS configuration after you have your server set up and working.
To record your BIOS configuration:
1 Print the appendix for “BIOS Settings” on page 87.
2 Restart your server, then press F2 when the Gateway logo screen appears during startup.
The BIOS Setup utility opens.
3 Record the BIOS settings on your printout.

from a single window, then implement commands and policies across the network with a single
action. With Gateway Systems Manager, you can run system management tasks which are
triggered by certain events or conditions.
For more information, refer to the Gateway Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) User Guide

information in the program’s online help.
