If you are very familiar with small computer system interface (SCSI) hardware, and the installation process, continue with 3.0 Quick installation instructions for experienced users. If not, continue with 4.0 Detailed installation instructions.
3.0 Quick installation instructions for experienced users
1. If any industry-standard architecture (ISA) devices are installed (or will be installed) that need interrupt requests (IRQs) or other system resources, such as input/output (I/O) ports or memory reserved, select ISA Legacy Resources and then select the desired resource type that you want to reserve. Change the desired resource from Available to ISA Resource.
2. Install DOS, remembering to use a DOS partition smaller than 2GB.
3. Run the UINSTALL utility from the IBM Netfinity IDE CD-ROM Support Package to add integrated drive electronics (IDE) CD-ROM support for DOS.
4. If you are using the integrated Adaptec controller, use the AIC7870.DSK driver from the 7800 Family Manager Diskette, as it will not be autodetected by the installation.
5. If you have installed the PC ServeRAID II, 3-L, or 3-H Adapter, use the IPSRAID.HAM driver from PC ServeRAID Device Driver and Utilities Diskette, Version 3.01 (or later) instead of the one from the NetWare 4.11 CD.
Note: If you want to start (boot) to the ServeRAID II, 3-L, or 3-H Adapter, disable the Host Adapter BIOS on both channels of the integrated Adaptec Controller.
6. Use the PCNTNW.LAN driver from the IBM Netfinity and PC Server Ethernet Controller and IBM Netfinity 10/100 Fault Tolerant Device Driver Diskette, v2.01A diskette for the integrated 10/100 Ethernet adapter. You might need to specify a slot number for the device. Use slot 10001 in this case.
7. Install IntranetWare Support Pack v5B.
4.0 Detailed installation instructions
4.1 Setting up the hardware
1. Disconnect the server power cord from the electrical outlet.
2. If you have a rack model server, remove the top panel by loosening the thumbscrew at the back-center of the server and remove the top access panel by pushing it toward the rear of the system. If you have a tower model server, use the switch on the left-center to release the cover and push it towards the rear of the server.
3. For the initial installation, install all the microprocessors that you plan to use and remove all adapters and devices that are not required to get the base operating system installed. (For example, if you are 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 starts without errors, add these devices one at a time. This procedure simplifies the installation process.
Notes:
a. When installing the additional microprocessor, be sure that a voltage regulator module (VRM) is placed in the available VRM slot, which is located on the system board near the hard disk drive enclosure fan. To install the VRM, first release the tab that holds the fan, and slide the fan partially out of the server to make room. Insert the VRM into the VRM slot according to the instructions that come with the microprocessor. Reinsert the fan after installing the VRM.
b. If you plan to use an external direct access storage device (DASD) enclosure, the following instructions will not apply. Refer to the documentation that comes with the external enclosure for proper setup; then, continue with 4.2 Setting up the BIOS.
4. Close the top or side panel.
5. Plug the server power cord into a properly grounded electrical outlet.
6. Install the desired number of hot-swap hard disk drives into the hot-swap bays.
For tower model servers, begin with the left-most bay and continue to the right.
For rack model servers, begin with the top bay and continue downward.
4.2 Setting Up the BIOS
1. Power-on the server; then, press F1 when the IBM logo appears to enter Configuration/Setup.

a. Determine the version of BIOS and Service Processor running on your server:
1) Highlight the menu option System Information, and press Enter.
2) Select Product Data, and press Enter. The Flash EEPROM Revision Level field contains the BIOS version. The numbers in positions 5, 6, and 7 of the level are the current BIOS level. For example, MOKT21AUS is BIOS level 21A, U.S. English.
3) The SP ROM Build Level field contains the Service Processor version. The numbers in positions 5, 6, and 7 of the Build Level are the current Service Processor level. For example, MOET35A is Service Processor Level 35.
4) Press Esc twice to return to the Configuration/Setup Utility menu.
b. At another computer, find the latest level of BIOS and Service Processor Flash available by checking the IBM Web, FTP, or BBS site. If you determine that neither your BIOS nor your Service Processor needs to be updated, continue with step 5.
c. If your BIOS needs to be updated:
1) Download the appropriate image at the other computer and build the diskette image by running the .EXE file. Answer Y on the last page of the licensing agreement. The current diskette image is 33L3644.EXE and is labeled IBM Netfinity 5000 Flash BIOS Update Diskette v1.01.
2) Exit Setup and save the settings.
3) Start (boot) with the BIOS diskette in the server and answer the question appropriately. After the BIOS update is complete, you might receive a 162 Configuration has changed error message at startup time. Ignore this message. Setup will start and you can continue by returning to step 2 at the beginning of section 4.2.
Note: If you do not see the 162 Configuration has changed message at startup time, you will need to press F1 when the F1/F2 messages appear. This will enable you to enter the Setup/Configuration Utility.
d. If your Service Processor needs to be updated:
1) Download the appropriate image at the other computer and build the diskette image by running the .EXE file. Answer Y on the last page of the licensing agreement. The current diskette image is 36L9883.EXE and is labeled IBM Netfinity Advanced System Management Processor Firmware Update Diskette (REV 35), v1.00.
2) Exit Setup and save the settings if you have not already done so.
3) Start (boot) with the Service Processor diskette in the server and press Enter when prompted. When the system returns to the command prompt, the update is complete and the server can be restarted. The Service Processor update normally takes between 5 and 10 minutes to complete.

Appendix B Installing IntranetWare Support Pack v5.0
(An excerpt from IWSP5B.TXT)
1. To install the IntranetWare Support Pack, complete these steps:
2. To explode the file, type (filename) Enter. Explode the file on the servers volume SYS:, on another server volume, or on a local client that is using RCONSOLE to run the installation.
Note: This file contains directory paths that could exceed the DOS limits. The file must be extracted in a root level directory on your local drive, or on a NetWare volume that accepts longer paths.
3. At the server console prompt, type LOAD INSTALL and press Enter.
4. Select Product Options.
5. Select Install a Product Not Listed.
6. Depending on where the IntranetWare Support Pack files are located, complete one of the following steps:
a. From the local volume SYS:, press F3 and specify the path, including the volume name (for example, SYS:\(directory name). From a different server on the network, press F3 and specify the full path, including the server name (for example, Server_Name\VOL1:\directory name). This step prompts for a login name and password for the other server.
b. From a local drive on a client using RCONSOLE, press F4.
c. Press Enter.
d. Press F10 to accept the marked options and continue.
e. Press Enter to end.
7. After the files finish copying, review the .NCF files for accuracy; then, shut down the server and restart it to complete the installation of the IntraNetWare Support Pack.
8. In order to activate the purge fixes (PRGFREFX.NLM), the PURGE/ALL DOS command must be run at the root of all the server volumes. In addition, VREPAIR.NLM should be run until no errors exist.
Note: Newer files that already exist on the server will NOT be overwritten. The files are first version-checked; if they are the same version, then they are date-checked by the internal date, not the DOS date of the file.
