Step Action Notes Endurance Configuration Guidelines 3 For disks: Make sure you add all devices that you 1. Select a component. 2. Click Add. 3. Select the appropriate option for the device you want to be available from the CE (including the non-mirrored devices on both IOP1 and IOP2). are adding: A minimal configuration includes one mirrored disk set (that contains the CE • Non-mirrored on IOP1 boot partition). • Non-mirrored on IOP2 • Mirrored (the default) 4. From the list, select the SCSI device you want to configure. Then follow the displayed instructions. When configuring the CE's boot disk, which must be a mirrored disk, be sure to check the Boot option on the Confirm Add SCSI Screen. (This box is grayed out for any device that is not a valid boot device.) For other devices, such as redirected Ethernet adapters: 1. Select a component. 2. Click Add. 3. Repeat this procedure for each device you want to add, including CD-ROMs, network adapters, and tape drives. A minimal configuration includes one redirected Ethernet adapter. Optionally, you can identify a CD-ROM drive for use by the CE. You can redirect a CD-ROM drive for direct use from the CE, or alternatively, you can access it over the Virtual Network. Warning: A maximum of one IDE CDROM drive from one of the IOPs can be redirected. After configuring all devices, select Commit. This saves the configuration changes. If you exit the Configuration Utility without clicking Commit, your configuration is not saved. After committing the configuration, select Save As, and save the configuration to a file which you can use to configure the Endurance software on IOP2. You can transfer the file over the IL after both IOPs are running. Installing Windows and the Endurance Software 3-17

For disks:
1.
Select a component.
2.
Click
Add
.
3.
Select the appropriate option for the device you
are adding:
°
Non-mirrored on IOP1
°
Non-mirrored on IOP2
°
Mirrored (the default)
4.
From the list, select the SCSI device you want
to configure. Then follow the displayed
instructions.
For other devices, such as redirected Ethernet
adapters:
1.
Select a component.
2.
Click
Add
.
3.
Repeat this procedure for each device you
want to add, including CD-ROMs, network
adapters, and tape drives.
Make sure you add all devices that you
want to be available from the CE
(including the non-mirrored devices on
both IOP1 and IOP2).
A minimal configuration includes one
mirrored disk set (that contains the CE
boot partition).
When configuring the CE²s boot disk,
which must be a mirrored disk, be sure
to check the
Boot
option on the Confirm
Add SCSI Screen. (This box is grayed
out for any device that is not a valid
boot device.)
A minimal configuration includes one
redirected Ethernet adapter.
Optionally, you can identify a CD-ROM drive for use
by the CE.
You can redirect a CD-ROM drive for
direct use from the CE, or alternatively,
you can access it over the Virtual
Network.
Warning: A maximum of one IDE CD-
ROM drive from one of the
IOPs can be redirected.
After configuring all devices, select
Commit
.
This saves the configuration changes. If
you exit the Configuration Utility without
clicking Commit, your configuration is
not
saved.
After committing the configuration, select
Save As,
and save the configuration to a file which you can
use to configure the Endurance software on IOP2.
You can transfer the file over the IL after
both IOPs are running.
