Getting Started
Installing software
Once the system is set up, install the operating system, server accessory software, and
the RAID controller software.
Refer to
Server Setup Tool
Manual for information.
Turning off the server
The procedure for turning off the server depends on the operating system installed on
the server. Always perform either a normal or an automatic shutdown when turning off
the server.
NOTE: If the power button was pressed and held for four seconds (force shutdown)
and then the AC power cable was disconnected, the server will automatically power
on when the AC power cable is reconnected. You may change the way this
functions using BIOS Setup Utility.
Performing a normal shutdown
To perform a normal shutdown under operating systems which do not support ACPI:
1
Shut down the operating system. For instructions, refer to the user's guide that came
with your operating system.
2
Press the power switch to turn off the server. The system will immediately power-
down.
If Windows 2000 is installed and it is placed in ACPI mode, or your operating system
supports ACPI, use the following procedure to perform a normal shutdown:
1
Click Start, Settings then Control Panel and choose Power Management.
2
Select Shutdown. The system will automatically shutdown and turn off.
CAUTION: Using the power switch to shutdown causes any running application
software to abort before completing the normal termination process. This could
result in data loss or damage any running applications.
Using the automatic shutdown function
The automatic shutdown function is usable only when the server is running on the
Windows NT or Windows 2000 operating system. If the power button is pressed on
another operating system, the server is immediately switched off without the preliminary
on page 153 in this manual and the applicable OS User's
