If you want to use ORCA to create logical drives, you do not need to exit the utility at
this point. Continue as described in Chapter 6, “Configuring an Array.”
IPF Servers
When you have finished configuring an array, you can create partitions on the
system. For IPF servers that use a supported Microsoft Windows operating system,
you can use the DVD that is supplied in the controller kit.
1. Insert the DVD into the DVD-ROM drive.
2. Follow the on-screen prompts and instructions to create an EFI system partition.
3. When creation of the system partition is complete, follow the on-screen prompts
and instructions to create an HP service partition.
When creation of the HP service partition is complete, you are ready to install the
operating system. Refer to Chapter 7, “Installing the Device Drivers.”
