Using the HP NetServer to Create NOS-specific Configuration Utility Diskette

To use the HP NetServer to create the diskette(s) needed to install the

NOS-specific utility for Windows NT, Windows 2000, or NetWare:

2. Choose Diskette Library.

3. From the Diskette Library, do the following:

◊ For Windows NT or Windows 2000, create the utility diskette by

selecting HP NetRAID Software for Windows in the diskette library.

Previously, this diskette was named " HP NetRAID Assistant for

WinNT and Win95/98."

◊ For NetWare, select HP NetRAID Software for NetWare in the

diskette library.

4. Follow the onscreen instructions to create the NOS-specific diskette.

5. Remove the HP NetServer Navigator CD-ROM and click Exit to restart

Print NOS Installation Instructions

If you saved the Network Operating System Installation Instructions or NOS

Installation Instructions to diskette, print them now. In Step K, you will follow

these instructions to load the drivers from the driver diskette.

Step K. Install NOS and HP NetRAID Drivers

Install Network Operating System (If Necessary)

If the NOS is not already installed on the HP NetServer, install it according to

the instructions you printed in Step J. If you are using Novell NetWare, also see

the Novell NetWare Installation book.

The NOS can be installed on a non-hot-swap drive, on a hot-swap drive not

under HP NetRAID control or on a logical drive under HP NetRAID control.

However, if you are installing NetWare to operate HP NetRAID in I

O mode, the

boot controller cannot be an integrated HP NetRAID controller or any other

HP NetRAID Series adapter operating in I

O mode.
