(For users who are very familiar with SCSI, hardware, and install process, jump to Appendix B)
Setting Up the Hardware:
1. Looking at the rear of the system, loosen the two thumb screws at the top of the system and remove the top access panel.
2. For the initial install, it is recommended that you remove all adapters and devices that are not required to get the base operating system installed. (For example, if installing multiple network adapters, only install one at this time. If a tape drive or external SCSI devices will be used, just disconnect them temporarily). After the operating system is booting without errors, add these devices one at the time. This procedure streamlines the install process.
3.
If the system is non-array:
- Looking at the rear of the system, verify that the SCSI cables (part number 01K6525) run from the on-board Adaptec controllers, located near the top right corner of the system board, to the top of the hot-swap backplanes.
If you have installed a PC ServeRAID II Adapter:
- Verify that the PC ServeRAID II Adapter is firmly in one of the systemÆs PCI expansion slots.
- Looking at the rear of the system, loosen the four thumb screws at the four corners of the sliding chassis and pull the sliding chassis back, exposing the back of the hot-swap backplanes.
- Unhook the two SCSI cables (part number 01K6525) from the onboard Adaptec controllers and reattach them to the first two connectors on the PC ServeRAID II adapter.
- Return the slide out chassis to its original position and tighten the four thumb screws.
4. Install a supported network adapter into one of the available ISA, EISA or, PCI expansion slots and properly connect its external port to a network cable.
5. Install the desired number of hot-swap hard drives into the hot-swap bays beginning at the top of a backplane and proceeding downward.
IMPORTANT NOTE: OS/2 currently only supports one CD-ROM device installed in the server during NOS installation. Additional CD-ROM devices can be installed into the server AFTER Completion of the NOS installation (Refer to APAR PJ24628 for more information). Verify that there is only one CD-ROM device in the server before continuing.

INSTALLATION PROCESS
BEFORE INSTALLATION
Before installing any FixPak, run CHKDSK /F against all drives on your system to correct any file system errors that might be present. You cannot do this while OS/2 is active. You must shut down and run CHKDSK by one of the following methods:
- Boot from your Installation and DISK 1 diskettes you used to install OS/2 with. If your file system is HPFS, then put the diskette with CHKDSK and UHPFS.DLL on it in your A: drive before issuing the CHKDSK command.
- Boot from the Utilities disk you created via the "Create Utility Diskettes" icon in the System Setup folder.
- Boot from a different OS/2 partition.
INSTALL FROM BOOTED OS/2 PARTITION.
Note: You can use a diskette drive other than A: with this method. If your 3.5" diskette drive is B:, use B: where A: is mentioned in the following steps. (this method only).
1. Insert CSF DISK Diskette 1 in drive A.
2. Open an OS/2 window or full-screen session.
3. Type A:\SERVICE and press the Enter key.
Note: You could also use the "Drives" object for A: and double click on the "SERVICE.EXE" Icon to start the install.
4. Follow the displayed instructions. When prompted to insert Corrective Service Diskette 1 (not CSF DISK Diskette 1), place FixPak XR_W032 Corrective Service Diskette 1 in drive A. Repeat for the rest of the FixPak disks when requested to do so.
Note: It can take a considerable length of time for the Corrective Service Facility to scan your hard disk for serviceable files. In some cases, it has taken as long as 40 minutes. Please be patient and allow this process to complete.
5. If this is the first OS/2 Warp FixPak you have applied to this system, then enter the path to the ARCHIVE directory where a copy of replaced files will be stored (for example, D:\ARCHIVE).
Note: This ARCHIVE directory is not related to the ARCHIVES directory built into OS/2 Warp 3.0. Please specify a different path. You must specify a different ARCHIVE directory for each product to be serviced.
If this is not the first OS/2 Warp FixPak, then enter the path to the BACKUP directory where a copy of replaced files will be stored (for example, D:\BACKUP).
Note: You must specify a different BACKUP directory for each product to be serviced.
For either case, make sure there is sufficient space available on the drive you specify. Even though these files are kept in compressed (PACK2) format, they require between 7 and 12 MB of disk space.
6. Click on "ôOKö".
7. You will see an "Application in use" dialog box showing a list of locked files that cannot be serviced while the system is running. You are given two choices - to Continue or Reboot. Select Continue.
8. During the installation process you might see messages about Archiving, Updating and Deferring service.
- Archiving saves a compressed copy of the original file in the ARCHIVE or BACKUP path you specified.
- Updating means the original files are replaced with the new ones from this FixPak.
- Deferring service means the file to be updated is currently in use by the system and cannot be updated. The new files from the FixPak are placed in unpacked format in the \IBMCSFLK\FIX directory on the drive with the most free space. They are processed by the locked file device driver during reboot after you shut down the system.
9. Select NO for a redisplay of the "Product List" after the first part of the FixPak application process has completed if this message is displayed.
10. Click Cancel and Exit to close the Corrective Service Facility window if necessary.
11. Shut down and reboot your system.
You will see the following during reboot of the system if you applied service to the OS/2 partition you were booted from.
The locked file driver is loaded.
Processing locked files
Processing complete
The system will do one automatic reboot after the Locked File Device Driver has completed.
Installing MPTS WR08503 FixPak:
WARNING: Before Installing the FixPak, ARCHOFF.EXE (located on the ServicePak Tool diskette) must be executed to rename any ARCHIVE logs that have been created by previously installed FixPaks. This FixPak MAY NOT install properly if ARCHOFF.EXE is not run prior to starting SERVICE. With the ServicePak Tool diskette in the A drive, type A:ARCHOFF at an OS/2 command prompt to execute the pre-install program.
WR08503.INF, located on the MPTS Corrective Service diskette, contains installation, and other useful information about this FixPak. Please review before installation of service. The CSF2-B is used for installation of this ServicePak and is considerably different from previous FixPaks.
Once downloaded, diskettes can be made in the same manner as the CSF diskettes using LOADDSKF.
