Configuring the HP NetServer

1. Power on the monitor. Press the LT 6000r's power button, and press the
eject button on the server's CD-ROM drive. Insert the HP NetServer
Navigator CD-ROM disk, and close the drive. Press the Reset button. If the
server fails to boot, follow the instructions given on the screen. Refer to
Chapter 10, Configuring the HP NetServer.
NOTE
To fully configure the LT 6000r, all the rack components must
be cabled and online (though not necessarily installed in the
rack).
2. When the HP Navigator starts, you can set the time and date, and change
the display language.
3. Read the README file: Select "README File" from the HP Navigator
Main Menu. The README file contains the latest information to help you
install the LT 6000r.
4. Run DiagTools: To verify NetServer hardware, run DiagTools by first
creating a DiagTools flexible diskette from the HP NetServer Navigator
CD-ROM. For more information about using DiagTools to detect all
processors and memory on the system board, refer to the online NetServer
DiagTools Error Reference and User Guide.
5. Install Information Assistant (optional): It is easier to use Information
Assistant from a standalone workstation than from the NetServer where
you are performing the installation. Install Information Assistant from the
HP NetServer Navigator CD-ROM.
Refer to Chapter 11, Information Assistant for information about accessing
the online documentation.
6. Run Configuration Assistant and Installation Assistant: Select
"Configuration and Installation Assistant."
7. Configure Mass Storage: The LT 6000r ships with the hot-swap mass
storage device(s) enabled for NetRAID operation. To configure the
device(s):
Run HP NetRAID Assistant to configure one or more RAID logical
drives. To run HP NetRAID Assistant, select "Execute" from the
Configure Disk Array screen.
