HP Ultra/Wide SCSI 4 GB and 9 GB Hard Disk Drive
Chapter 3 Mount the Drive in the NetServer E 45
28
CAUTION No low level format is needed. HP performs the low-level
format at the factory.
•
Initialize the file system, using the operating system format utility.
NOTE If you are experiencing problems with the drive, watch the
messages on your monitor while the system boots. A message
appears if a drive is not recognized by the HP NetServer (which
happens when the HP NetServer attempts to communicate with
a drive before the drive has finished spinning up).
If the system did not recognize a hard drive:
• Wait until all drives reach full speed.
• Press the Reset button on the system or press the
Ctrl+Alt+Del hot-key combination to restart the HP
NetServer without powering it down.
Do not power-down (power-cycle) the system to restart it, as
this causes all the drives to stop spinning.
