O
ther Documentation You May
Need
You may need to reference the following documentation
when performing the procedures in this guide:
•
The Dell PowerEdge 4200 Systems User's Guide,
which describes system features and technical speci-
fications, video and small computer system interface
(SCSI) device drivers, the System Setup program,
software support utilities, and the EISA Configura-
tion Utility.
•
The Dell PowerEdge rack installation documenta-
tion, which provides detailed instructions for
installing the system in a rack.
•
The Dell Hardware Instrumentation Package for
Intel LANDesk Server Manager User's Guide, which
describes the alert messages issued by the server
management software.
You may also have one or more of the following
documents:
•
Operating system documentation is included with
the system if you ordered the operating system soft-
ware from Dell. This documentation describes how
to install (if necessary), configure, and use the oper-
ating system software.
•
Documentation is included with any options you
purchase separately from the system, such as the
Dell PowerEdge Expandable RAID Controller host
adapter. This documentation includes information
that you need to configure and install these options
in your Dell computer.
•
Technical information files—sometimes called
"readme" files—may be installed on the hard-disk
drive to provide last-minute updates about technical
changes to the system or advanced technical refer-
ence material intended for experienced users or
technicians.
NOTE: Documentation updates are sometimes included
with the system to describe changes to the system or soft-
ware. Always read these updates before consulting any
other documentation because the updates often contain infor-
mation that supersedes the information in the other
documents.
