Compaq ProLiant 5000 Migrating to the Compaq ProLiant 5000 Server in Microsoft - Page 9

480A/0197 WHITE PAPER (cont.) ... Migration Scenario 3 The additional processors, Service Pack 4, and additional memory in the following migration scenario will not require changes to the procedures used to migrate scenario 2 stated earlier. However, by starting with a SMART-2 /E Controller in the ProLiant 4500 Server you can save the process of updating the driver before migration. TABLE 4 COMPAQ PROLIANT 5000 SERVER MIGRATION SCENARIO 3 Hardware and Software System Processor(s) Memory Disk Controller Drive Configuration File System(s) Network Controller Software ProLiant 4500 Server ProLiant 5000 Server 4 X 133-MHz Pentium 4 X 166-MHz Pentium Pro 128 MB (SIMM) 128 MB (DIMM) SMART-2/E Controller SMART-2/P Controller 4 X 2.1 GB (RAID 5) 4 X 2.1 GB (RAID 5) 500-MB FAT(boot), 5.5-GB NTFS 500-MB FAT(boot), 5.5-GB NTFS NetFlex-3 10/100TX/E NetFlex-3 10/100TX/E Windows NT SSD, version 1.17 and Compaq Insight Management Agents, version 2.61 Windows NT SSD, version 1.18 and Compaq Insight Management Agents, version 3.00 or later The following items from the checklist in the "Getting Started" section were isolated for consideration in this migration scenario: • HAL update required • ProLiant 4500 Server system processor options are not compatible with the ProLiant 5000 Server • ProLiant 4500 Server memory options are not compatible with the ProLiant 5000 Server • NetFlex-3/E Controller can be upgraded to PCI for performance improvement • System Configuration, Diagnostics, and Windows NT SSD require update For this migration scenario, as with migration scenarios 1 and 2, the HAL and system partition utilities (System Configuration, Diagnostics, and so on) require updates. Procedures for accomplishing these tasks can be found in the "Step-by-Step Instructions" section of this document. As is the case with all the migration scenarios presented in this document, the memory and processor options are not compatible. The Compaq Technology Brief, Configuring the Compaq ProLiant 5000 for Peak Performance (document number 301A/0696) provides additional information on this subject. The NetFlex-3/E Controller in this configuration is compatible but does not utilize the highperformance PCI architecture in the ProLiant 5000 Server. To take advantage of the PCI architecture in the ProLiant 5000 Server, you must install the updated version of this controller. Even though the existing controller device driver is compatible, you should upgrade it at the same time as the HAL. 9
