installed on new servers. If there is any existing data on the servers, it will be
destroyed.
You will need the following during SmartStart installation:

SmartStart and Support Software CD 4.9 or later
■
Microsoft Windows 2000 Advanced Server with Service Pack 1 or later
■
SmartStart Installation poster
■
Server Profile diskette
Cluster-Specific SmartStart Installation
The SmartStart Installation poster describes the general flow of configuring
and installing software on a single server. The installation for a PDC/O1000
will be very similar.
The one difference is that through the Array Configuration Utility, SmartStart
gives you the opportunity to configure the shared drives on all servers. For
cluster configuration, you should configure the drives on the first server, then
accept the same settings for the shared drives when given the option on the
other servers.
