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, so you must complete the hardware installation of the server 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 wizard
Partition Settings in the Windows Setup wizard
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
se
tup 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 pre-specified parameter
file or save the parameters specifie
d in setup as a parameter file on a
removable media or Internal Flash Memory (if purchased optionally).
• For details on creating a parameter file, refer to Chapter 1 (8 Windows OS
Parameter File).
