1 Configuring an Embedded 1068 Controller as the Boot Controller on HP BL860c and BL870c Blade Servers Systems running Windows Server 2008 are normally able to recognize Logical Unit Numbers (LUNs) on the SAS device path. Therefore, this procedure is not absolutely required on those systems. However, it is still highly recommended, since it is always good practice to mirror the system boot drive for redundancy. NOTE: The DVD-ROM drive described in the following procedure must be an external drive that connects to a USB port on the BL860c or BL870c, since these servers do not provide an internal DVD-ROM drive. To configure your embedded 1068 controller as the system boot controller on BL860c and BL870c blade servers, complete the following steps: 1. Boot the server with your Smart Setup media in the DVD-ROM drive. It may take a minute or two for the disk to initialize, so please be patient. 2.

1 Configuring an Embedded 1068 Controller as the Boot
Controller on HP BL860c and BL870c Blade Servers
Systems running Windows Server 2008 are normally able to recognize Logical Unit Numbers
(LUNs) on the SAS device path. Therefore, this procedure is not absolutely required on those
systems. However, it is still highly recommended, since it is always good practice to mirror the
system boot drive for redundancy.
NOTE:
The DVD-ROM drive described in the following procedure must be an external drive
that connects to a USB port on the BL860c or BL870c, since these servers do not provide an internal
DVD-ROM drive.
To configure your embedded 1068 controller as the system boot controller on BL860c and BL870c
blade servers, complete the following steps:
1.
Boot the server with your Smart Setup media in the DVD-ROM drive. It may take a minute
or two for the disk to initialize, so please be patient.
