Upgrading from Windows 2000 The procedures detailed in this section support upgrading from Windows 2000 to Windows Server 2003 with Service Pack 1 on ProLiant servers. When upgrading from Windows 2000 with NIC teaming installed and active, an issue with a .DLL file that halts the manual install exists. This issue is not seen during an unattended/scripted install. Prerequisites Follow the steps below to prepare for a successful upgrade. 1. Select a supported system platform from the server platforms listed in appendix a. 2. Double-click on My Computer, then select Help from the menu bar and click on the About Windows option. Verify whether the system has the latest Microsoft Service Pack installed. If this is not the case, download the latest service pack from the Microsoft website (www.microsoft.com/windows2000/downloads/servicepacks/sp4/default.asp) and install it on your server. This action ensures that the server has the latest software components Microsoft supplied prior to the upgrade. 3. Download and install ProLiant Support Pack for Microsoft Windows 2000 Version 7.30A from the software and drivers website at http://h18023.www1.hp.com/support/files/server/us/locate/1989.html.

IMPORTANT: Failure to update drivers provided by HP before beginning the upgrade process might result in unexpected failures during the upgrade to Windows Server 2003. 4. If Compaq Network Teaming is installed, unteam currently teamed network interface controllers prior to the upgrade. 5. If installed, uninstall HP Smart Array Multipath Software Version 1.0 before proceeding with either upgrade method. • Select the Control Panel from the Start | Settings menu. 8
