IMPORTANT: This guide provides instructions to complete the installation of a factory-installed operating system. If your operating system has been factory-installed, do not boot the server from the HP SmartStart CD when powering up the server for the first time. The SmartStart CD should only be used to reinstall the operating system. Introduction This guide provides instructions for completing the installation of the factory-installed Microsoft® Windows® 2000 Server software operating system. The operating system is preloaded on the server disk drive before the server is shipped to you. The latest drivers are also loaded on the server disk drive and integrated with the preloaded server operating system. The normal server operating system installation process is shortened for a preloaded server operating system. This installation should require approximately 20 to 25 minutes, compared to the normal CD installation time of an hour and a half. You are required to enter user-specific information, such as the server name, IP address, and regional settings. The HP factory-installed software for Windows 2000 Server is: • Ready to run. You are guided through a Mini-Setup wizard, after which any HP specific components are installed and, where possible, configured. After any required restarts of the operating system, the Windows 2000 installation is complete and ready to perform any required user configuration. • Preconfigured with the networking protocols TCP/IP and the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) service. These services are required for effective network management and allow the HP Management Agents for Servers to communicate with HP Insight Manager 7. NOTE: Windows 2000 Server requires TCP/IP services to be installed. The server must be connected to an active network connection if a dynamically obtained IP address is desired. An active network connection is not required if a static IP address is supplied during the installation. HP Factory-Installed Operating System Software for Microsoft Windows 2000 Server User Guide 5
