Installing Server Software

Some computers come with Mac OS X Server version 10.3 software already installed. Nonetheless, there are several times you need to install server software, as when you want to upgrade from a version 10.1 or 10.2 server, change a computer with Mac OS X into a server, or completely refresh your server environment.

You can install server software:

From the server install discs

From an installation image that you set up and store on disk, referred to as automated installation

Chapter 6, “Installing Server Software,” on page 79 provides detailed instructions for all the installation options, which are summarized in the following sections.

Local Installation From the Server Install Discs

The Installer application, which automatically opens after startup, offers a graphical, guided way to install server software. See “Using Installer to Install Locally From the Install Discs” on page 82 for instructions.

If you prefer using the command line, start the Terminal application from the Installer menu and follow the instructions in “Using the installer Command-Line Tool to Install Server Software” on page 85.
