Chapter 4 Installing the Operating System

Creating the Partitions

Do not join a domain. Instead, specify a workgroup. The Cisco Unity installation guide alerts you when to connect to the network and when to join a domain later in the installation process.

If you are prompted to specify Windows 2000 Server components to install, select the following required components:

Internet Information Services

Message Queuing Services

Note If you do not install all the required Windows 2000 Server components, subcomponents, and service packs while installing the operating system, the Cisco Unity installation guide alerts you when and how to install them later.

Step 4 When the Windows 2000 Configure Your Server dialog box appears, click I Will Configure This Server Later.

Step 5 Uncheck the Show This Screen at Startup check box, and close the window.

Creating the Partitions

Note If the Cisco Unity server was purchased from Cisco, skip this section. When you installed Windows using the Cisco Unity Platform Configuration discs shipped with the server, the partitions were created automatically.

Do the following procedure to create the partitions that you identified in the “Determining the Locations for Files on the Cisco Unity Server” section on page 2-4.

To Create the Partitions

Step 1 Log on to Windows as a member of the Administrators group.

Step 2 On the Windows Start menu, click Programs > Administrative Tools > Computer Management. Step 3 In the console tree under Storage, click Disk Management.

Step 4 Right-click the first available unallocated region of the first available logical disk, and click New Partition (if Windows Server 2003 is installed) or Create Partition (if Windows 2000 Server is installed).

Typically, you will need to create one more partition than the number of logical disks available. After you install the operating system, the first 12 GB of the first logical disk is used for the system partition, and is given the drive letter C. You create the first extended partition by using the remaining space on the first logical disk. When you create subsequent partitions, you use the entire logical disk.

Step 5 On the New Partition Wizard (Windows Server 2003) or Create Partition Wizard (Windows 2000 Server) welcome screen, click Next.

Step 6 Click Extended Partition, and click Next. (Do not click Primary Partition.)

Step 7 Specify to use the remaining disk space, and click Next.

Step 8 Verify the settings, and click Finish.
