your installation.

Configuration Assistant and Installation Assistant

HP Configuration Assistant guides you through the steps necessary to configure
the NetServer. Three methods of configuration are available: Express, Custom,
and Replicate.
HP Installation Assistant guides you through the NOS installation and configures
the NOS with the appropriate drivers for the HP-bundled configuration.
Before you run Configuration Assistant and Installation Assistant, you may need
to run the SCSI Select utility and the Setup utility to do the following:
•
If you need to verify or modify SCSI host adapter settings, or if you need
to low-level format SCSI disks or verify SCSI disk media, run the SCSI
Select utility described in Chapter 11.
If you have installed an ISA non-Plug-and-Play accessory board, you must
reserve system resources for it. Refer to the "Configuring an ISA Non-Plug-and-
Play Board" section in Chapter 11.
