Booting from DVD 1

It takes about 5 minutes to boot from ServerView Suite DVD 1 via a remote storage medium. The boot progress is indicated during the boot process. Once the boot process has completed, the Installation Manager startup displays a dialog box in which you are asked to select a medium for the status backup area (status backup medium).

IBefore you start to install the operating system, you should synchronize the local mouse cursor and the cursor of the managed server in the AVR window at the remote workstation. For more detailed information on synchronizing the mouse cursor in the AVR window, see section "Synchronizing the mouse pointer" on page 93.

ÊChoose Standard mode as the Installation Manager mode.

ÊSpecify whether the configuration data is to be stored on a local replaceable data medium or on a network medium:

IPlease note that if you do not select any status backup option all the configuration data is lost when you reboot.

Status backup medium

IThe backup medium must not be write-protected.

A USB stick must already be connected to the USB port when the system is booted. If you fail to do this and wish to save the configuration file: Connect the USB stick now and reboot from ServerView Suite DVD 1.

ÊChoose the option on local drive (floppy / USB stick).

ÊSelect the corresponding drive in the box to the right of this option.

For more detailed information on creating Installation Manager status disks, see the manual “ServerView Installation Manager”.

Connecting the status medium and/or the installation media via the network

ÊSet up the required shares for this purpose.

IIf you are making a medium with a prepared configuration file and/or an installation medium available via the network, you have to choose this option. Depending on your infrastructure, you can either obtain a temporary IP address via DHCP or manually configure an IPv4 or IPv6 address for the current Installation Manager session.

ÊStart the Installation Manager by clicking Continue.
