a. Copy the file PCNETOS2.EXE from the root directory of the diskette that is created using the ServerGuide CDs to your hard disk drive. b. Add the following statement to the CONFIG.SYS file: Run=d:\path\PCNETOS2.EXE where d and path are the drive and path to which you copied PCNETOS2.EXE. 6. Restart the server. The failover function is now enabled. Windows NT Server: IBM offers hot-plug support for Windows NT Server Version 4.0. Failover can work in conjunction with hot-plug support or independently. If you are not using hot-plug support, go to "Windows NT Server failover setup" on page 83. Windows NT Server hot-plug setup: IBM Netfinity Hot Plug PCI for Windows NT Server 4.0 package is available for download from the IBM Web site at: http://www.pc.ibm.com/support Enter the brand type of Server, click on Downloadable files and look for Hot Plug. The IBM Netfinity Hot Plug PCI for Windows NT Server 4.0 package uses the Intel Desktop Management Interface (DMI) to control hot-plug support for the Ethernet controllers. The Ethernet controller in your computer is DMI compliant. Download and install the following software in the order listed: 1. IBM Failover DMI Agent 2. IBM PCI Hot Plug Solution 3. IBM Netfinity 10/100 Fault Tolerant Adapter device drivers Note: The order of installation is important. You must install the IBM Netfinity Hot Plug for Windows NT Server 4.0 package before you install the IBM Netfinity 10/100 Fault Tolerant Adapter driver. If you install the adapter device driver before the PCI Hot Plug Solution package, the adapter device driver will not recognize the hot-plug code. This happens because the adapter device driver only checks the NT registry for the Hot Plug package during installation. If the PCI Hot Plug Solution package is added after the adapter device driver is installed, the adapter must be removed and added again in order for it to detect the PCI Hot-Plug Solution code. To install the IBM Failover DMI Agent: 1. Download the DMI EXE file from the Netfinity Support web page and extract the files onto a diskette. 2. Insert the diskette into the diskette drive. 3. From the Start menu, select the Run option. 4. Type A:\SETUP.EXE in the Open box. 5. Click Ok. The setup wizard opens. 6. Follow the instructions that are given by the setup wizard until the program is installed. 7. Restart the server. To install the IBM PCI Hot Plug Solution package: 1. Download the IBM PCI Hot Plug Services EXE file from the Netfinity Support web page and extract the files onto a diskette. 2. Log on to Windows NT Server as a user in the Administrator group. 3. Insert the diskette into the diskette drive. 82 : Netfinity 5100 Type 8658 Models 11Y, 21Y, 31Y, 41Y, 51Y, 1RY, 2RY, 3RY, 4RY, 5RY
