Selecting the installation method

Referring to "2.2 Selecting the Installation Method" decide what installation method to use.

ServerStart, a software that enables everything from OS installation/setup to the installation of high

reliability tools to be performed in one operation, comes with this server. It is recommended that

ServerStart is used to perform installation.

Checking precautions on installation

Before installing the OS check the precautions on installation by referring to "2.3 Precautions on Installation".

Procedures before operation

Before operating the server refer to "Chapter 5 Operations after OS installation".

High reliability tool installation

Start operations

Installing hardware options

Referring to "Chapter 7 Installing Hardware Options" install the hardware options.

Using ServerStart

Referring to "Chapter 3 OS Installation Using

ServerStart" perform OS installation.

Manual installation

Referring to "Chapter 4 Manual OS

Installation" perform OS installation.

OS installation

When the OS is installed manually, it is necessary to install high reliability tools ServerView requires
