The IBM Remote Supervisor Adapter The IBM Remote Supervisor Adapter can be installed in the xSeries 330. To update the Advanced System Managment (ASM) firmware or configure the ASM processor, you must download the image of the xSeries 330/IntelliStation R Pro Advanced System Management Firmware Update Utility program from the IBM Support page at http://www.ibm.com/pc/support on the World Wide Web. See "Advanced System Management" on page 36. Installation prerequisites Before installing the Remote Supervisor Adapter, perform the following tasks: v Obtain the most recent device drivers, Advanced System Management (ASM) firmware, DOS configuration utility, and management information base (MIB) from the IBM Support Web site, http://www.ibm.com/pc/support. See "Advanced System Management" on page 36. v Install the operating system on your server before you install the Advanced System Management device drivers. To install the operating system using ServerGuide, use only ServerGuide version 6.0.3, or later.

The IBM Remote Supervisor Adapter
The IBM Remote Supervisor Adapter can be installed in the xSeries 330. To update
the Advanced System Managment (ASM) firmware or configure the ASM
processor, you must download the image of the xSeries 330/IntelliStation R Pro
Advanced System Management Firmware Update Utility program from the IBM
Support page at http://www.ibm.com/pc/support on the World Wide Web. See
Advanced System Management
on page 36.
Installation prerequisites
Before installing the Remote Supervisor Adapter, perform the following tasks:
v
Obtain the most recent device drivers, Advanced System Management (ASM)
firmware, DOS configuration utility, and management information base (MIB)
from the IBM Support Web site, http://www.ibm.com/pc/support. See
Advanced System Management
on page 36.
v
Install the operating system on your server before you install the Advanced
System Management device drivers. To install the operating system using
ServerGuide, use only ServerGuide version 6.0.3, or later.
Note:
If you previously installed the operating system with ServerGuide version
6.0.2, make sure that you install the Advanced System Management
device drivers from the
IBM Remote Supervisor Adapter Support
CD, or
download the device drivers from the IBM Support Web site,
http://www.ibm.com/pc/support. Do not install the device drivers from
the directory that ServerGuide 6.0.2 created on the hard disk during its
installation of the operating system. For information about installing the
device drivers, see
Installing the Remote Supervisor Adapter
on
page 62.
v
Update the basic input/output system (BIOS) code on your xSeries 330 server.
The latest level of BIOS code for your server is available from the IBM Support
Web site, http://www.ibm.com/pc/support. For information about how to
update the BIOS code, see the documentation that comes with your xSeries 330
server.
v
If you are planning to configure Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
trap alerts on the Remote Supervisor Adapter, you must install and compile the
management information base (MIB) on your SNMP manager. If you do not
