Setting Up The Operating System; Initial Hardware Settings - Gateway 9515 User Manual

Setting up the operating system

If you ordered your server with the operating system already installed by Gateway, in most
cases it is completely installed and the basic settings are already configured. The Windows
Small Business Server operating system may require additional installation, depending on
the version you ordered. See your operating system's documentation for instructions on
completing the installation or configuring advanced settings for your specific network.
If you are installing an operating system because it was not already installed by Gateway,
see the appropriate installation guide for instructions.

Initial hardware settings

Your server comes from the manufacturer with the correct initial hardware settings to
operate your server as configured. However, at some point you might want to change
settings to reflect a tasking change, a change in security requirements, or the addition of
new resources to your server.
General hardware settings, as well as enabling or disabling the onboard LSI RAID solution,
can be changed by using the BIOS Setup utility. The RAID solution can be configured by
using the RAID BIOS console (or the specific RAID console which accompanied a
customized, add-in RAID solution).
For information on the BIOS Setup utility, see
For information on BIOS settings, see
the RAID BIOS console utility, see
on a specific RAID console for an add-in RAID solution, see the documentation on that
hardware which came with your server.
