2 Installation Steps NOTE If you need to update the ISM software remotely, zip the /ism directory (and all subdirectories) and copy it to the remote system using FTP, or other remote connections. Then execute the installation scripts on the remote system. Step 1. Boot from the System Resource CD and Run the Configuration Wizard 1. Insert the HP Server cc3310 Information Diagnostic and Utility Resource CD in the CD drive and reboot the server. When the managed server boots from the Resource CD, the Server Configuration Wizard automatically launches. During start-up, the wizard probes the server to find out what should be configured. Depending on the state of the server the wizard will display the appropriate screens during the configuration process. For detailed information about fields in a particular screen, press the Configuration Wizard's help button. 2. The Configuration Wizard Start Screen describes the overall server preparation process. After reading through this process click the Continue button. 3. Make sure the Server Configuration Wizard is selected and click the Continue button to start the configuration process. Follow the directions on each screen. After you have supplied all the information on a given screen, click the Continue button to move forward in the process. The wizard can do the following configuration tasks. You will need to select the configuration options according to how you want to communicate with the managed server. For example, it is not necessary to configure the serial channel or set up alerting over the serial channel if you intend to use only a LAN connection for server management. a. Select which options to configure. The wizard selects default options for this server based on its initial probing during startup. b. Set the date and time. c. Configure the LAN IP Address information. (This should match the IP information that will be used to configure the Linux LAN port that matches the NIC1 port on the managed server.) d. Configure remote server management options available over the LAN channel. e. Configure Alerting over the LAN channel. f. Load the Sensor Data Records (SDRs). g. Load Field Replaceable Units (FRUs) Data Records. h. Set a system asset tag. i. Install or update the service partition. This task is a two-step process with a server reboot between the two steps. j. Save the configuration to a floppy disk for use with similar servers. k. Save the configuration to the server. Step 2. Install the Managed Server's Operating System If the managed server does not have an operating system installed, the Configuration Wizard displays a message to remove the System Resource CD, insert the bootable media that contains the operating system, and then reboot the system to complete installation of the operating system. 12

Step 1. Boot from the System Resource CD and Run the
Configuration Wizard
1.
Insert the HP Server cc3310 Information Diagnostic and Utility Resource CD in the CD drive and reboot
the server.
When the managed server boots from the Resource CD, the Server Configuration Wizard automatically
launches. During start-up, the wizard probes the server to find out what should be configured.
Depending on the state of the server the wizard will display the appropriate screens during the
configuration process. For detailed information about fields in a particular screen, press the
Configuration Wizard’s help button.
2.

configuration process. Follow the directions on each screen. After you have supplied all the information
on a given screen, click the Continue button to move forward in the process. The wizard can do the
following configuration tasks. You will need to select the configuration options according to how you
want to communicate with the managed server. For example, it is not necessary to configure the serial
channel or set up alerting over the serial channel if you intend to use only a LAN connection for server
management.

g.
Load Field Replaceable Units (FRUs) Data Records.
h.
Set a system asset tag.
i.
Install or update the service partition. This task is a two-step process with a server reboot between
the two steps.
j.
Save the configuration to a floppy disk for use with similar servers.
k.
Save the configuration to the server.
Step 2. Install the Managed Server’s Operating System
If the managed server does not have an operating system installed, the Configuration Wizard displays a
