For the other operating systems, Express Setup initializes the target disk(s), creates the
maintenance partition, and installs the various maintenance utilities from the
NEC EXPRESSBUILDER CD-ROM to lead your server to ready-to-install for the
desired operating system.
Express Setup uses "Configuration Diskette". The Configuration Diskette is a floppy
disk that includes the configuration information for the server setup used in the
automatic installation mode. Express Setup will perform all the process of the setup
using the information in the floppy disk. During this procedure, you do not have to be
in front of the Express server to confirm the state of the setup. Also, using the same
Configuration Diskette used before allows you to re-setup your server with the same
condition as before.
Express Setup includes two types of installation method.
Quick start
Quick start uses the Configuration Diskette that the configuration parameters for
server setup are pre-loaded before starting the Express Setup. The configuration
parameters are loaded by using the Configuration Diskette Creator (see Chapter 6).
Normal start
Normal start is to create the Configuration Diskette after starting the Express
Setup.
Notes:
Use the blank disk in the accessory box to create Configura-
tion Diskette.
You can create Configuration Diskette in advance using
" C o n f i g u r a t i o n D i s k e t t e C r e a t o r " i n c l u d e d i n N E C
EXPRESSBUILDER.
If you create Configuration Diskette in advance, you can
abbreviate the items that are necessary to input or select
during Express Setup. (You can also create or modify the
setup information restored in Configuration Diskette during
Express Setup.) If you have a computer other than your
servers that is running with Windows 95/98/Me/XP, Windows
NT 3.51 or later, or Windows 2000, Windows Server 2003,
we recommend you to edit setup information from the com-
puter in advance using Configuration Diskette Creator.
For more information on how to create Configuration Diskette
using Configuration Diskette Creator, see Chapter 6.
