10. Make an NT 4.0 Drivers floppy disk by choosing Create Driver Diskette(s), Execute, and following the prompts. Label the floppy disk NT 4.0 Drivers. 11. Press the Back button three times to return the Navigator Main Menu. 12. Create a set of installation floppy disks for NetRAID Assistant by choosing NetServer Utilities | Diskette Library. Select NetRAID Assistant for WindowsNT and Windows95 from the list and then the Execute button. Follow the instructions to create the NetRAID Assistant installation floppy disks. Label the floppy disks HP NetRAID Assistant 1 and HP NetRAID Assistant 2. Install Windows NT NOTE Windows NT must be installed from floppy disks, not the CD, so that the mass storage drivers will be loaded correctly. If you have not created a set of Windows NT boot floppy disks, see Software in part "1 What's Needed" for additional information. 1. Remove the Navigator CD, insert the boot floppy for Windows NT4.0, and exit Navigator to reboot the server. 2. When Setup prompts to detect mass storage devices, skip detection and manually specify the mass storage drivers: 3. Load drivers using the NetRAID-3Si Cluster Firmware and Driver floppy disk you created in part 1 "What's Needed" and the NT 4.0 Drivers floppy disk you created in step 10 above of this procedure. • Load the driver for the device you want to boot from. This will be the HP NetRAID Adapter Driver. If you are using a NetRAID-3Si Adapter for shared storage, load this driver from the NetRAID-3Si Cluster Firmware and Driver floppy disk. Be sure to use the driver version specified for shared storage in the Configuration Guide, since this driver is used for both the NetRAID local storage adapter and the NetRAID-3Si shared storage adapter. • Load the IDE driver from the NT 4.0 Drivers floppy disk, since the CD drive is on the IDE bus. • Load any other mass storage drivers you need. If you are using the embedded SCSI channel, load the Symbios driver from the NT 4.0 Drivers floppy disk at this time. 4. Continue the installation and select the following options when prompted: • Choose the unpartitioned space and install Windows NT. • Choose NTFS file system • When prompted to search for a Network Adapter, load NIC drivers for both the intra-cluster and the client LAN. Be sure to load the correct intra-cluster LAN driver version as specified in the Configuration Guide for your cluster. If you are using two HP D5013A NICs, load the driver twice, once for the intra-cluster NIC and once for the client NIC. • Make sure TCP/IP Protocol is selected. Other protocols may be selected in addition, but TCP/IP is required. • If you are using two HP D5013A NICs, when prompted for TCP/IP Properties: Make sure adapter [2] is highlighted and specify its IP address and subnet mask. This will be the LAN adapter for the intra-cluster LAN. Select adapter [1] and specify its IP address and subnet mask. This will be the LAN adapter for the client LAN. Set TCP/IP Properties for DNS, WINS Address, etc. at this time. HP NetServer Installation Guide 23
