Introduction

Installing VINES 5.54, 6.0, or 7.0 on the NetServer involves many of the standard

procedures covered in the Banyan documentation as well as the general HP NetServer

documentation.

This document presents the most important information that you need to install VINES.

The first part of this document is a list of helpful tips on hardware installation, the second

part is a step-by-step installation guide.

It may be useful to look over the information in this guide before you begin using the

standard HP and Banyan documents.

Then, as you go through the installation process,

you can refer to this guide as necessary.

NOTE: Hewlett-Packard has more than one Disk Array Controller (DAC) for the

NetServer product family.

In this document the term "HP Disk Array

Controllers" refers to the EISA and PCI HP Disk Array Controller models

C3609A and C3610A, respectively.

The term "HP NetRAID" refers to the HP

NetRAID

and NetRAID-1 PCI DAC models D4943A and D4992A, respectively.
