Operating System Purchased Separately - Compaq 226824-001 - ProLiant - ML750 Setup And Installation Manual

Operating System Purchased Separately

If you purchased the operating system separately, you will need to configure
the server and install the operating system using the SmartStart and Support
Software CD.
NOTE: If you do not use the SmartStart and Support Software CD, see the Compaq Array
Controller Driver Installation kit for your boot device drivers.
SmartStart is the recommended way to configure the server and to load the
system software, thereby achieving a well-integrated server that ensures
maximum dependability and supportability.
To install the SmartStart and Support Software CD:
1. With your server turned on, locate the CD-ROM drive.
2. Push the button to release the tray. Pull out the tray.
Place the SmartStart and Support Software CD in the tray (label facing
up), handling the CD from the edges, not by the flat surfaces of the disc.
3. Reboot your server from the SmartStart and Support Software CD.
4. Follow the screen prompts.
5. Install Compaq Insight Manager when prompted by SmartStart.
When the CD-ROM busy LED indicator is lit, the SmartStart installation
sequence begins.
The first time the server is configured, the SmartStart program automatically
creates a system partition and installs the Compaq utilities in that partition.
NOTE: Refer to the Server Setup and Management pack for instructions on using
SmartStart.
NOTE: To manage the system, refer to the Compaq Management CD provided in the
Server Setup and Management pack shipped with your server.
