• Precautions for OS installation
In addition to the completion of RAID card configuration, the hard disk under the RAID card must be
initialized or the background initialization process must be started before the OS is installed.
When the OS is installed using ServerStart, ServerStart performs configuration and hard disk
initialization automatically.
● BIOS Settings
The expansion ROM for expansion cards is disabled on this server. To configure an expansion card, the
expansion ROM must be temporarily enabled in the BIOS Setup Utility. The configuration procedures
are as follows.
1 Enable the expansion ROM of the slot for the expansion card to be configured.
Start up the BIOS Setup Utility and select the "
■ PCI SLOTS Configuration
Submenu" (
pg.234) from the [Advanced] menu. Change [Option ROM Scan]
from [Disabled] to [Enabled].
2 From the "8.2.17 Exit Menu" (pg.250), select [Save Changes & Exit] to exit
the BIOS Setup Utility.
3 Restart the server and configure the expansion card in POST.
4 After configuring the expansion card, start up the BIOS Setup Utility again and
return the setting you have changed in Step 1 to the original setting.
● LAN Card/Onboard LAN
When using the LAN card (PG-1852/PG-1862/PG-1882/PG-1882L/PG-1892/PG-1892L) under the
Windows 2000 Server, change the LAN card settings after the driver has been installed. ("4.3
Installing the LAN Driver" (pg.124))
● Remote Service Board
• Before installing the remote service board
For preparation and procedures for installing a remote service board, refer also to the manual
supplied with the board.
• Do not connect the remote service board AC adapter until you finish installing
the remote service board and close the top cover of the server. Doing so may
cause a device failure, fire, or electric shock.
• When replacing remote service boards or adding other optional devices,
unplug the power cable of the remote service board AC adapter from the
outlet.
Failure to do so may cause a device failure, fire, or electric shock.
• When the server is installed in an upper position in the rack, fasten the AC
adapter in the rack. If the AC adapter unit is suspended, excessive force can
be put on the cable, causing failures.
