Checking before OS Installation
■ Checking before OS Installation
• When a RAID-configured disk is used
When using a configured disk, delete a physical pack in advance. For how to delete a physical pack,
refer to "PRIMERGY RX300 S2 Onboard SCSI RAID User's Guide".
• Number of disk units
If the number of actually installed units is smaller than the setting for the number of units (+1 when a
hot spare is specified), installation using ServerStart is aborted because of an error.
When the number of installed disk units is greater than the setting, the disk units are set up according
to the setting. Extra units will be configured as standby disk units. You can add a physical pack later.
For more details, refer to "PRIMERGY RX300 S2 Onboard SCSI RAID User's Guide".
2.3.3 Notes on a Multiple LAN Adapter Configuration
Using the OS installation wizard of ServerStart, you can configure multiple LAN adapters (network
adapters) on the system. However, there are the following limitations.
● Adapter Numbers
To configure multiple LAN cards, select the adapter numbers in order of Adapter 1 and Adapter 2, and
enter settings for each adapter. Note that the order of adapter numbers is not necessarily the same as the
order of slots for the installed LAN adapters. This means that the setting for Adapter 1 is not always
applied to the onboard LAN. After installing the OS, check the LAN adapters to make sure that they are
configured as intended.
2.3.4 Cautions for Using ServerStart
■ Operating ServerStart
Most ServerStart operations are performed with the mouse. Items may not be moved with the [Tab] key
or cursor keys. Be sure to use the mouse when operating ServerStart.
■ Ejecting the CD-ROM
Do not eject the ServerStart CD-ROM while ServerStart is running. If the ServerStart CD-ROM is
ejected and inserted again, ServerStart starts up in multiple windows, and settings you have made can be
lost.
■ Exiting ServerStart
After operation in guided mode or expert mode, exiting ServerStart restarts the system. Ejecting disks
from the floppy disk and CD-ROM drives and click [OK]. When the display on the screen disappears,
turn off the system.
