It should contain the IP address and name of each server with integrated HP NetRAID controllers (or HP NetRAID Series adapters) to be managed over the network. 10. Restart NetWare. NOTE If the NetWare server is a Registration Server, the reg_serv.nlm will be put in autoexec.ncf to automatically start it. However, if the software was installed previously, but not as a Registration Server, edit the autoexec.ncf file to add the statement load reg_serv.nlm so that the Registration Server will automatically start under NetWare. Using HP NetRAID Assistant to Manage Servers Before Starting HP NetRAID Assistant The Registration Server must be running before any other servers are started. • If the Registration Server is a NetWare server, it must be running reg_serv.nlm. • If the Registration Server is an NT server, it must be running the NetRAID Registration Server icon (under the NetRAID program group). To access an HP NetRAID Series adapter in a server from the network, the three services listed below must be running. Start them in the order listed. You may set them for automatic start, if desired. 1. NobleNet Portmapper: It should have been installed by the HP NetRAID software and set for automatic start in Windows NT. In NetWare, load rpcstart.nlm. 2. HP NetRAID Registration Server: Start it before the others by doubleclicking on its Windows icon or by loading NetWare module reg_serv.nlm. 86
