Setup
This NEC Express5800/ft series setup method is used to perform automatic setup operations from
the settings of internal parameters and states of hardware to the installation of Windows Server 2003
Enterprise Edition and various utilities.
Use the setup program if hard disks are used with a partition different from that at purchase, or if
OS is reinstalled. This feature carries out the complicated setup.
IMPORTANT:
To install LINUX on your server, do not use "Express Setup." Any other methods cannot
properly install Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition in the server.
The Express Setup is assumed to be used when the server has not been set up. Its execution
erases the data in the hard disk.
Tools Menu
The Tools Menu is used to start each of the several utilities stored in the NEC EXPRESSBUILDER
CD-ROM individually for manual setup by operator. Use the Tools Menu to provide settings that the
setup program cannot do automatically or detailed settings. Also use the Tools Menu when system
diagnosis is performed or a support disk is created. The items in the Tools Menu are described
below.

Off-line Maintenance Utility
Off-line Maintenance Utility is an OS-dependent maintenance program that performs preventive
maintenance and error analysis for your server. See Chapter 6 or the online help for details.
System Diagnostics
Executes several tests on the main system to examine the features of the system and the
connections between the system and extension boards. If the system diagnosis is executed, the
system check program is started depending on the system status. See the description in Chapter
6 to manipulate the system check program
Create Support Disk
In the support disk creation procedure, the starting support disk for starting a utility within the
NEC EXPRESSBUILDER from a floppy disk and the support disk required in the installation
of the operating system can be created. If you write down the titles appearing on the screen on
the floppy disk labels, they can be easily managed later.
