Power on the HP Server and the monitor: u Insert the HP Server Navigator CD-ROM in the CD-ROM drive. u The server should boot from the HP Server Navigator CD on its own; if not, turn the power off, wait 10 seconds and turn the power back on again. u If the system fails to boot, follow the instructions on the screen. u Press F2 to enter setup, or u Press F4 to accept automatic configuration update (if prompted to do so). 2. Configure the HP Server and Install the Network Operating System (NOS): u During the configuration process you will be asked to select the NOS Installation Mode. u From the HP Server Navigation Main Menu, view the system Readme from the HP Navigator main menu for the most current installation information. u Use the HP Server Navigator to configure the server. 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. u) Choose the automated NOS installation mode for first-time installations of Microsoft Windows 2000 (NT) Server on the factory-configured HP Server. You will be guided through the process by a series of HP display screens.) u) 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, be sure you view and print the HP-customized NOS installation instructions and create the driver diskette(s) for the NOS you are installing. ) )) 3.
