Setup with EXPRESSBUILDER

This section describes how to install Windows with EXPRESSBUILDER.

This feature automatically recognizes the RAID controller connected to the server and configures the RAID

system. Therefore the hardware installation of the server needs to be finished by following "User’s Guide ".

Important

• Setup with EXPRESSBUILDER may delete all data of the hard disk drive

depending on the settings. Pay attention to input parameters. You must

be especially careful when configuring the following:

− RAID settings

− Partition Settings

Backing up user data, as needed, is recommended.

• Before starting setup, be sure to disconnect hard disk drives from the

RAID Controller that is not to be setup. Install those hard disk drives after

setup has completed. Conducting setup with hard disk drives being

connected with RAID Controller may cause existing data to be erased

unintentionally. It is recommended to make backup copy of user data

before starting setup.

Note

• The Scalable Networking Pack (SNP) function is disabled on systems that have

been installed by using EXPRESSBUILDER.

The setting of SNP function may affect the system performance.

Contact your sales representative for details.

Tips

• Setup with EXPRESSBUILDER allows you to use a prespecified parameter file

or save the parameters specified in setup as a parameter file on removable

media or Internal Flash Memory (if purchased optionally).

• For details on creating a parameter file, refer to Chapter 1 (7. Windows OS

Parameter File).
