Audience Assumptions

This guide is for the person who installs, administers, and troubleshoots

LAN servers. Hewlett-Packard Company assumes you are qualified in

the servicing of computer equipment and trained in recognizing hazards

in products with hazardous energy levels. The instructions in this

document are provided in greater detail in the HP Netserver LP 1000r

User Guide.

Configuring the HP Netserver

1. Power on the HP Netserver and the monitor:

❑

Insert the HP Netserver Navigator CD-ROM in the CD-ROM

drive.

❑

The server should boot from the HP Netserver Navigator CD

on its own, if not, turn the power off, wait 10 seconds and turn

the power back on again.

❑

If the system fails to boot, follow the instructions on the

screen.

❑

Press [

F2

] to enter setup, or

❑

Press [

F4

] to accept automatic configuration update (if

prompted to do so).

2. Configure the Netserver and Install the Network Operating

System (NOS):

❑

During the configuration process you will be asked to select

the NOS Installation Mode.

❑

From the HP Netserver Navigation Main Menu, view the

system

Readme

from the HP Navigator main menu for the

most current installation information.

❑

Use the HP NetServer Navigator to configure the Netserver.

If you use Navigator's Guided, Custom, or Replication

modes, you will be prompted through the process.

NOTE

If certain versions of the Microsoft Windows NT Server are used,

a prompt will appear indicating selections of automated or

manual NOS installation.

❑

Choose the automated NOS installation mode for first-time

installations of Microsoft Windows 2000 (NT) Server on

factory-configured HP Netserver. You will be guided through

the process by a series of HP display screens.

❑

Perform a manual install if you are installing a NOS other

than Microsoft Windows 2000 (NT) Server or if you have

replaced HP components (for example adding a SCSI

controller board from a third-party). You will need to use

the NOS vendor's installation process.

Before you leave the Navigator and install your NOS,

ensure you view and print the HP-customized NOS

installation instructions and create the driver diskette(s)

for the NOS you are installing.

3. Install or Configure Tape Backup Software:

❑

If your Netserver uses a tape backup device, install and/or

configure the tape backup software now.

Refer to the Tape Backup Getting Started Guide for

instructions on installing and configuring the tape backup

software.

4. Refer to the HP Netserver Online Documentation CD-ROM:

❑

Use this CD-ROM for updated information about your

HP Netserver and as reference for any additional information

not provided in this Installation Guide.

NOTE

If you plan to use the Integrated Remote Assistant (Integrated RA)

feature to run Netserver utilities remotely, the Utility Partition must

be created using the HP Netserver Navigator. If you choose the

Guide mode of configuration, the partition will be created

automatically. Otherwise, you will need to choose Install/Update

Utility Partition during the custom configuration process. For more

information on the Integrated RA feature, refer to the "Remote

Administrator Guide" found on the HP Netserver Online

Documentation CD-ROM.

5. Run DiagTools: (Optional)

❑

Create the HP DiagTools diskettes from the Netserver Utilities

(or Diskette Library) on the HP Netserver Navigator

CD-ROM.

❑

Run HP DiagTools and after completing all the configuration

topics, save the support ticket to a diskette for future

reference.
