1 Installing and configuring the server Setup overview Your HP StorageWorks All-in-One Storage System comes preinstalled with the Windows® Storage Server™ 2003 R2 operating system. Windows Storage Server 2003 R2 extends the Windows Storage Server 2003 operating system, providing a more efficient way to manage and control access to local and remote resources. In addition, Windows Storage Server 2003 R2 provides a scalable, security-enhanced Web platform for simplified branch server management, improved identity and access management, and more efficient storage management. Planning for installation Before you install your HP StorageWorks All-in-One Storage System, you need to make a few decisions. Determining a network access method Before beginning setup and startup procedures, decide upon an access method to connect to the storage system. The type of network access you select is determined by whether or not the network has a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server. If the network has a DHCP server, you can access the storage system through the direct attachment, remote browser, Remote Desktop, or remote management methods. If your network does not have a DHCP server, you must access the storage system through the direct attachment method. NOTE: The direct attachment method requires a display, keyboard, and mouse.
