Figure 9-31 Reboot system
The HBAs are now ready for the installation of Microsoft Windows Server 2003
Enterprise Edition.

9.1.5 HBA driver disk creation

After the IBM SMB HBA is configured to use a LUN as boot device, create a
driver diskette for the installation of Microsoft Windows Server 2003. To create
the driver diskette, download the driver for the IBM SMB Host Bus Adapter. Use
the software and driver matrix of the DS400 to get the right driver for the host bus
adapter in combination with the TotalStorage DS400.
Note: IBM DS4000 Host Bus Adapter and IBM SMB Host Bus Adapter use
separate drivers, but they use the same driver set. BIOS and firmware are
different.
Unzip the driver archive and store all files in the root of a 3.5" diskette. This
diskette will be required to install Microsoft Windows Server 2003.
Proceed with the installation of Microsoft Windows Server 2003 as described in
the next section.
