Phase 2 – Initialize Hard Disk Drive
NOTE: There are two types of hard drive configurations: Dynamic and Basic. You can select
the appropriate type by right clicking on the disk drive icon. Dynamic drives are used to create
volumes, which can contain more than one physical hard drive. Basic drives are used to create
primary or local partitioned drives.
To manage your different drives and partitions:
1. Click Start | All Programs | Administrative Tools | Computer Management |
Disk Management.
2. The Write signature and Upgrade wizard will start if you have new hard drives
with no signatures on them. Follow the on-screen instructions to create this
signature.
3. Click OK to proceed when notified you have a new hard disk to configure.
4. Right-click to select available hard disk space and use the New Partition wizard
to create and format the additional partitions, if desired.
5. Exit the "Computer Management" tool.

Section 5. Configure the Network

Phase 1 – Configure Server IP Address
During the installation process the system was configured to use DHCP. If no DHCP
server is found on the network the system will auto-configure a random IP address to
start functioning. It is important that you configure the proper IP address to be able to
communicate with the clients:
1. Click Start | Control Panel | Network Connections | Local Area Connection
on your HP server.
NOTE: If your HP server hosts several network adapters, the window will show one Local
Area Connection icon for each network adapter present in the system. Identify the proper
adapter by browsing each one.
2. Click Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) | Properties | Use the following IP address.
3. Enter an appropriate IP address.
