Check the Hardware Installation

Perform the following steps to check the hardware installation:

CAUTION: The CD±ROM drive is susceptible to mechanical and electrostatic shock. When handling the drive, always wear the static strap that came in the CD±ROM drive kit. Always handle the drive carefully.

1.Check that the SCSI±2 terminator is connected to the single±ended SCSI±2 port on the rear I/O panel of the system unit (if there are no external SCSI±2 devices), or that the last external single±ended SCSI±2 device is terminated.

2.Attach the static±grounding wrist strap by following the instructions on the package that contains the strap.

3.Shut down HP±UX.

NOTICE: If you are already at the boot administration level, you do not need to shut down; skip this step and go on to Step 4.

If you are running HP±UX under HP VUE, shut down your system by performing the shutdown procedure described in your Owner's Guide which came with your workstation.

If you are running HP±UX without HP VUE, shut down your system by typing the following command:

#/etc/shutdown ±h RETURN

You must have superuser privileges to use the /etc/shutdown command. If you do not have superuser privileges, contact your system administrator.

If your workstation is part of a cluster, refer to the Managing Clusters of HP 9000 Computers manual for instructions on shutting down.

4.Power off the workstation, using the power switch on the front of the workstation.
