Tip #1. Upgrading from SBS 4.0 to Small Business Server 2000
It is possible to upgrade from any edition of NT 4.0 including Terminal Server to Small Business
Server 2000. Please refer to the readme.doc on the Small Business Server 2000 CD and the
Small Business Server 2000 Setup Guide for information on how to perform the upgrades.
Tip #2. Using the Small Business Server 2000 integrated backup utility with
the HP NetServer E 60 bundled tape drive
The backup utility in w2k has a "Backup Destination" pull down menu with the following
choices:
File
minQIC
Travan
The T20 tape drive shipped with the NetServer E 60 requires that you set this option to minQIC
when using 20GB cartridge. If you plan to use an 8GB cartridge (read-only mode supported)
then change this setting to Travan.
The T4 tape drive shipped with the NetServer E 50 requires that you set this option to Travan.
The T4 tape drive only supports 8GB cartridges.
It you don't set this option properly the backup utility will report that either the tape drive is
broken or the media is full.
Tip #3. Upgrading Small Business Server 2000 from Uniprocessor HAL to
Multiprocessor HAL
If you have a uni-processor system running Small Business Server 2000 and a second processor
is added, the plug and play feature in Small Business Server 2000 will not auto-detect the second
processor.
Fix: Use the following procedure to configure Small Business Server 2000 to use the second
processor .
1. Click Start, select Settings, select Control Panel, and then select System.
2. Click the Hardware tab, and then click Device Manager.
3. Double-click the Computer branch to expand it. Note the type of support you currently have.
4. Double-click the computer type listed under the Computer branch, click the Drivers tab,
click Update Driver, and then click Next.
