Step 6

following illustration). Click OK to continue with Cisco Business Edition 3000 installation. The system takes
approximately 3 hours to install Cisco Business Edition 3000.
Figure 10: Media check passed
During the installation or reimaging of a new Cisco Business Edition 3000 release, a server may
require firmware updates applied if the MCS 7890-C1 server contained old firmware from a previous
release.
This will cause the server to reboot during installation, to pick up new firmware updates. The following
message appears when this happens:
Hardware setup for server requires a reboot for new update or settings to take effect. Install will
continue after server has rebooted
The user must acknowledge this message, resulting in a server reboot back to the DVD. When
prompted with the media check option in this subsequent reboot, the user can skip the media check
option and continue with the installation.
Note
Step 7
A prompt appears asking: Do you want to overwrite the hard drive? Click Yes.
Some USB DVD drives will automatically retract the DVD tray after the initial install phase, and
the system may boot off it again. If this happens, the check media prompt will be displayed again.
This is normal. To correct, simply reboot the server, eject the DVD, and the second phase of the
install will continue from the internal drive.
Note
Step 8
The installation will proceed at this point. Look for the following to be displayed on the console: Cisco
Business Edition 3000 administrative interface can be accessed using a
supported web browser at https://192.168.1.250. For more information,
refer to the Administration Guide for Cisco Business Edition 3000.
Step 9
Disconnect the USB DVD drive from the MCS 7890-C1 according to the Disconnecting a USB DVD Drive,
on page 73.
Step 10
The reimage resets the server to the default IP address of 192.168.1.250.
