Installation Checklist
Important
Be sure to maintain at least 51 mm (2 in.) of space at the rear of
the server to allow the server's cooling system to work properly.
Blocking the air vents can cause overheating, which might result
in a malfunction or permanent damage.
Your server hardware is set up, and you are ready to learn about
your server. The order in which you do these tasks is up to you.
Use the following checklist as a guide.
Ø Learn about your server and the system utility programs
Your server comes with utility programs to help you
configure your server and troubleshoot problems. See
Chapter 6, “Configuring Your Server” on page 273 for
information about configuring your server and using these
utility programs. See Chapter 7, “Solving Problems” on
page 299 for details about troubleshooting. If your server is a
disk-array model, read and become familiar with Chapter 3,
“Configuring the Disk Array” on page 75. Follow the
instructions to back up your disk-array configuration
information. If your server comes with a PeerMaster adapter,
read and become familiar with Chapter 4, “Configuring the
PeerMaster Adapter” on page 133.
Ø Record your identification numbers
Your server has important identification information that you
will need if you have it serviced. Appendix A, “Server
Records” on page 369 shows where to find these numbers,
and provides space to record and retain information. Be sure
to record your ServerGuide License Diskette serial number in
Appendix A.
