Note The order of installation is important. The IBM Netfinity Hot Plug for Windows NT Server 4.0 package must be installed before the IBM Netfinity 10/100 Fault Tolerant Adapter driver is installed. If the adapter device driver is installed 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 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. 4. From the Start menu, select the Run option. 5. Type A:\SETUP.EXE in the Open box. 6. Click OK. The Setup wizard opens. 7. Follow the instructions given by the setup wizard until the program is installed. Windows NT Server failover setup: To install the IBM Netfinity 10/100 Fault Tolerant Adapter device drivers: 1. Add the redundant NIC adapter according to the instructions provided with the adapter and in "Working with adapters" on page 107. 2. Use the ServerGuide CDs to install the AMD PCNet Ethernet Family adapter device driver. (Refer to the "ServerGuide and Netfinity Manager Information" section of this Server Library.) 3. Do not select the Grouping box at this point; you must first restart the machine. 4. From the Windows NT Server desktop, select Control Panel, then select the Network icon, then select the Adapters tab. 48 Netfinity Server HMM
