Refer to the SmartStart documentation included with the server to install the operating system, update drivers, and to run upgrade utilities. SmartStart Autorun Menu On systems that run a Microsoft Windows operating system, the SmartStart Autorun Menu enables access to the latest system software directly from the operating system environment, simply by inserting the SmartStart CD into a configured system. The Autorun Menu enables the user to: • Install the latest Support Packs. • Create software diskettes for selected software. SmartStart Scripting Toolkit The SmartStart Scripting Toolkit is a set of MS-DOS-based utilities that enable the user to configure and deploy servers in a customized, predictable, and unattended manner. These utilities provide scripted server and array replication for mass server deployment and duplicate the configuration of a source server onto target systems with minimum user interaction. The Configuration Replication Utility is a stand-alone MS-DOS utility that duplicates the settings of an operating RBSU-configured server by saving the server configuration to a scripted file. You can edit and modify settings in the scripted file at the subset level. For example, you can change ASR-2 settings without having to change settings for boot controller order.
