5 Installation and Configuration Overview This chapter covers Steps C, D, E, F, G, and H of the installation procedure. You should already have completed Step A, "Plan Your Hardware," and Step B, "Plan Arrays and Logical Drives" in Chapter 4. Step C. Prepare the Adapter In this step you install the adapter into the HP NetServer. Step C covers: • Preparing the adapter if it is too long for the I/O card cage • Installing additional memory • Plugging in the Battery Backup Unit on HP NetRAID and HP NetRAID- 3Si adapters CAUTION The adapter is sensitive to static electricity and can easily be damaged by improper handling. Using a grounding strap is recommended. Read the following information carefully before you handle the accessory: • Leave the adapter in the antistatic bag until you are ready to install it. • If possible, use an antistatic wrist strap and grounding mat. • Before you remove the adapter from the bag, touch a grounded, unpainted metal surface on the system to discharge static electricity. If the Adapter is Too Long Some HP NetServers, such as the HP NetServer LXr Pro8, do not have space for a full-length PCI board. If the adapter is too long, remove the board extender (plastic "handle") from the HP NetRAID Series adapter before you install the adapter, as shown in Figure 5-1. 43
