3.0 Quick installation instructions for experienced users
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.
1. Press F1 when the IBM logo appears to enter Configuration/Setup, and select Advanced Setup. Select MPS and change the default from 1.4 to 1.1. This is the APIC specification that OS/2 Warp Server uses during installation. After FixPak XR_W038 is installed, this can be changed back to 1.4.
2. If you are using the Integrated SCSI Controller:
- On a separate machine using a standard text editor:
- Edit the CONFIG.SYS file from OS/2 Diskette 1 for CD-ROM by adding the line: SET COPYFROMFLOPPY=1
- Copy the AIC7870.ADD driver from the A:\OS2 directory of 7800 Family Manager Diskette V3.01 over the existing AIC7870.ADD on the OS/2 Diskette 1 for CD-ROM.
You might need to delete some of the existing files on the diskette to make room. Examples of removable files include:
- SBCD2.ADD, and any of the various AHAxxxx.ADD files.
Note: To prevent a problem where the OS/2 installation program keeps removing the AIC7870.ADD device driver during
installation, the device driver must be copied to c:\os2\boot from diskette 1 after the initial file copy completes and before the final restart (reboot). FAILURE TO DO THIS STEP WILL RESULT IN TRAP 0002 MESSAGES, SYSTEM HANGS, AND TRAP 000D MESSAGES.
3. If you are using the PC ServeRAID II, 3-H, or 3-L Adapter:
- On a separate machine using a standard text editor:
- Copy IPSRAID.ADD from the IBM ServeRAID Device Driver Diskette, Version 3.01 or later onto the OS/2 Diskette 1 for CD-ROM.
- Edit the CONFIG.SYS file from OS/2 Diskette 1 for CD-ROM by adding the following lines to the top of CONFIG.SYS:
- SET COPYFROMFLOPPY=1
- BASEDEV=IPSRAID.ADD
IMPORTANT NOTE: If you have installed a PC ServeRAID II Adapter, use the OS/2 installation diskette and disk 1 to get to a command prompt during the final restart (reboot). Copy the good IPSRAID.ADD from disk 1 to the OS2\BOOT directory. Failure to copy this device driver the hard disk drive might result in reduced machine performance.
NOTE: To prevent error messages on diskette startup, you will need to REM out the device drivers in CONFIG.SYS that you erased from the diskette.
4. If you plan to use the IBM Netfinity S3 Trio V2/GX Device Driver that is shipped with the system on the IBM Netfinity S3 Trio Device Driver For OS/2 Diskette V.3.03.26 diskette (part number 24L8036) to allow higher video resolutions, use the VGA video driver during NOS installation. You can install this new video driver ONLY AFTER the NOS installation is complete and FixPak 38 (or greater) has been applied. See Appendix D for full driver installation details.
5. At the Configuration window, click the bottom check mark for Adapter and Protocol Services. Add any additional network adapters and necessary protocols. If you are using the integrated 10/100 MBPS Ethernet adapter, select Change Adapter; then, Other Adapter. Insert the IBM Netfinity Ethernet Controller and IBM Netfinity 10/100 Fault Tolerant Driver Diskette v2.01 into the diskette drive. Select AMD PCNet Family Ethernet Adapter; then, under Type of LAN, select Ethernet and click OK.
6. Install FixPak XR_W038 or later, MPTS FixPak WR08506, and LAN Server IP08506. See Appendix B for details.
7. Install the OS/2 Device Drivers for S3 Trio 64V+ Diskette. See Appendix C for details.
4.0 Detailed installation instructions
4.1 Setting up the Hardware
1. Unplug the system.
2. Remove the top panel by loosening the thumbscrews at the back upper corners of the server and remove the top access panel by pushing it toward the rear of the system.
3. For the initial installation, it is recommended that you install all the microprocessors you plan to use and 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, disconnect them temporarily. After the operating system is starting without errors, add these devices one at a time. This procedure simplifies the installation process.
Notes:
When installing additional processors, be sure that a processor or a terminator card is in slot 4.
If you have installed the IBM ServeRAID Adapter and you do not plan to use it as the startup device, do not install the IBM ServeRAID Adapter in slots 11 or 12.
If you plan to use an external DASD enclosure, the following instructions will not apply. Refer to the documentation provided with the external enclosure for setup information, then proceed to 4.2 Setting up the BIOS.
4. Close the top panel.
5. Plug in the system.
6. Install the desired number of hot-swap hard disk drives into the hot-swap bays beginning at the top bay 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 AFTER completion of the NOS installation. Refer to APAR PJ24628 for information. Verify that there is is only one CD-ROM device in the server before continuing.
4.2 Setting up the BIOS:
1. Power-on the server; then, press F1 when the IBM logo appears to enter Configuration/Setup.
2. When the Configuration/Setup Utility menu appears, move the highlighted section to Load Default Settings and press Enter. Press Enter again to return to the Configuration/Setup Utility menu.

Find the latest level by checking the IBM web, ftp, or BBS site.
Determine the version of BIOS running on your server by highlighting the menu option System Information; then, selecting Product Data and pressing Enter. The Flash EEPROM Revision Level field contains the BIOS version. The numbers in position 5, 6, and 7 of the level are the current BIOS level. For example, OSJT23AUS is BIOS level 23A, U.S. English.
Press Esc twice to return to the Configuration Utility menu. If you determine that your BIOS does not need to be updated, continue with step 6.
4. If your BIOS needs to be updated:
a. Download the appropriate image and build the diskette image by running the .EXE file.
b. Answer Y on the last page of the licensing agreement. The current diskette image is OSJT23AUS.IMG and is labeled IBM Netfinity 7000 M10 Flash BIOS Diskette.
c. Exit Setup and save settings.
5. 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' message on startup (boot). Ignore this message. Setup will start and you can continue with step 6.
NOTE: If you do not see the '162 Configuration has changed' message at startup (boot) time, you will need to press F1 when the IBM logo appears to enter Setup.
6. Move the highlighted selection to Start Options and press Enter.
7. Verify that the Startup Options are set to the following (change if necessary):

4.4 Running the OS/2 Warp Server SMP v4.0 Installation Program using the integrated SCSI controller:
1. On a separate machine, using a standard text editor, edit the CONFIG.SYS file from OS/2 Diskette 1 for CD-ROM and add the line SET COPYFROMFLOPPY=1.
2. Still on a separate machine, copy the AIC7870.ADD driver from the A:\OS2 directory of 7800 Family Manager Diskette over the existing AIC7870.ADD on the OS/2 Diskette 1 for CD-ROM. You might need to delete some of the existing files on the diskette to make room. Examples of deletable files include SBCD2.ADD, and any of the various AHA****.ADD files.
For example, if you are not using an Adaptec 1640 adapter, remove AHA164X.ADD. The files that were deleted in our test configuration were:
AHA164X.ADD
AHA174X.ADD
AIC7770.ADD
AIC7870.ADD (This is the original driver on the diskette.)
SBCD2.ADD
NOTES:
- If you are using the integrated SCSI controller and have placed one or more IBM PC ServeRAID or IBM PC ServeRAID II adapters in the server, you must make sure that the AIC7870.ADD driver appears prior to the IPSRAID.ADD in the CONFIG.SYS or the server will appear to hang after the first restart during the installation.
- To prevent error messages on diskette startup, you will need to REM out the drivers in CONFIG.SYS that you erased from the diskette with the exception of the AIC7870.ADD file.
3. Still on a separate machine, unpack and copy the OS2LDR file that is supplied with FixPak XR_W038 on disk 16 to the OS/2 WARP Server Installation Diskette for CD-ROM.
Notes:
There are two different OS2LDR files with the FixPak. One is for WARP Server SMP and one is for WARP Server non-SMP. The larger of the two is the SMP loader.
Step Three can be accomplished by the following commands:
ATTRIB -R -S -H A:\OS2LDR
UNPACK D:\OS2LDR.___ A:\ (where D: is disk 16 of the FixPak)
4. Insert the OS/2 WARP Server Installation Diskette for CD-ROM into the diskette drive and the OS/2 Warp Server, Version 4 Advanced SMP CD into the CD-ROM drive and restart the server.

B.3 Creating FixPak diskettes
Use LOADDSKF.EXE to create the diskettes. For each disk image, place a 2 MB HD (1.44MB formatted) diskette in A:.
WARNING: DO NOT use a 1 MB (720 KB formatted) diskette because you might have problems trying to install this FixPak.
For each diskette image in the FixPak, do the following:
- Enter LOADDSKF XR_W038.?DK A: /F (? can be 1 through 9, A through Z).
- Label the diskette as FixPak XR_W038.
- Corrective Service Diskette ? (CSF DISK ?)
NOTE: For diskette images ADK through ZDK (if they exist), use the numbers 10 through 36.
Examples:
XR_W038.ADK = Corrective Service Diskette 10 (CSF DISK 10)
XR_W038.BDK = Corrective Service Diskette 11 (CSF DISK 11)
XR_W038.CDK = Corrective Service Diskette 12 (CSF DISK 12)
XR_W038.DDK = Corrective Service Diskette 13 (CSF DISK 13)
etc...
B.4 The Installation Process
B.4.1 Before Installation
Before installing any FixPak, run CHKDSK /F against all drives on your server 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:
- Startup from your Installation and DISK 1 diskettes you used to install OS/2. If your file system is HPFS, put the diskette with CHKDSK and UHPFS.DLL on it in your A: drive before issuing the CHKDSK command.
- Startup from the Utilities disk you created via the Create Utility Diskettes icon in the System Setup folder.
- Startup from a different OS/2 partition.
B.4.2 Installing From A Started OS/2 Partition
Note: You can use a diskette drive other than A: with this method. If your 3.5 inch diskette drive is B:, use B: where A: is mentioned in the following steps (this method only).
1. Insert CSF DISK Diskette 1 into 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 installation.
4. Follow the displayed instructions. When prompted to insert Corrective Service Diskette 1 (not CSF DISK Diskette 1), place FixPak XR_W038 Corrective Service Diskette 1 into drive A. Continue with 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 server, then type 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 type 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 MB and 12 MB of disk space.
6. Click on OK.
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, Continue or Restart. 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 restart after you shut down the system.
9. Select No for a re-display 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 restart your server.
If you applied service to the OS/2 partition that you used for system startup, you will see the following during restart.
- The locked file driver is loaded.
- Processing locked files
- Processing complete
The server will do one automatic restart after the Locked File Device Driver has completed.
B.5 Installing MPTS FixPak WR08506
WARNING: If you are using FixPak 28 or less, 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 might 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 preinstallation program.
WR08506.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 considerablydifferent from previous FixPaks. Once downloaded, diskettes can be made in the same manner as the CSF diskettes using LOADDSKF.
To install this FixPak, return to Step 1 of B.4.2 Installing From A Started OS/2 Partition and follow the instructions there.
B.6 Installing LANServer FixPak IP08506
(An excerpt from IP08506.ZIP README.Y2K)
1. To install these SelectPaks, first unzip the IPxnnnn.ZIP file into a temporary directory, where x is the letter for the country and nnnn is the SelectPak number.
When you unzip the .ZIP file, you should get the following files:
README.Y2K This file
IPXnnnn.CMD The installation program for the SelectPak
IP_nnnn.MSG A file used by the installation program
IP_nnnn.SPK The zip file used by the installation program
PREREQ.LVL A file used by the installation program
2. Run the IPXnnnn.CMD file from the temporary directory, where nnnn is the SelectPak number. You can put all the parameters on a command line, or if you leave out the parameters, it will prompt you for them. To get information about the required parameters, you can also type: IPXnnnn ?
The parameters are as follows.
/L: for the log file (defaults to \OS2\INSTALL\IP_nnnn.LOG)
/S: for the source path of your ZIP file (defaults to the current directory)
/T: for the target drive for your update (the drive with your \IBMLAN directory)
/D: for the RIPL drive for your update (0 = RIPL not installed)
/B: for the drive that contains your operating system (only needed if you do not specify a log file)
/K: to indicate your backup preference (0 = NO, 1 = backup to \IBMLAN\NETPROG)
/V: to indicate your verification preference (0 = does not verify, null = prompt for verify, 1 = verifies OK)
CAUTION: Specifying /V:0 indicates that you did not accept the specified input and your input will be erased, then you will be prompted for input. Leaving /V: null or not specifying this parameter will allow you to verify input. When /V:1 is entered from the command line no verification takes place. Use of /V:1 is intended for unattended installations.
For example, if you need to install IP08266, you could use the following commands:
PKUNZIP2 -D IP08266.ZIP C:\TEMP
CD TEMP
IPX8266.CMD /S:c:\TEMP /B:c /T:c /K:1
Note: If you have more than one drive with an IBMLAN directory that needs to be updated, you must run the command file for the SelectPak once for each drive to be updated.
B.8 Backout Instructions
If you need to backout these fixes, you can do this only if you have chosen to backup the files during the installation (that is, you answered Yes to the backup question).
If you have chosen to back up the files, the old files will be in the \IBMLAN\NETPROG directory with a .P2K extension. Copy the .P2K files in this directory (LSERROR.P2K, LSAUDIT.P2K, and NET.P2K) to .EXE files with the same name. Backout is complete.
For example, if you ran the installation from C:\TEMP and your IBMLAN directory is on D:, you would use the following commands:
D:
CD IBMLAN\NETPROG
COPY LSERROR.P2K LSERROR.EXE
COPY LSAUDIT.P2K LSAUDIT.EXE
COPY NET.P2K NET.EXE
Appendix C: Installing the IBM Netfinity S3 Trio V2/GX Device Driver for OS/2:
(an excerpt from README.TXT off of IBM Netfinity S3 Trio V2/GX Device Driver For OS/2 Diskette (part number 24L8036).
1. Start the server in VGA mode. If the server was not installed in VGA mode, this can be accomplished by pressing ALT+F1 when the OS/2 logo appears in the upper left hand corner of the monitor during startup. From the Recovery Choices window, press V to reset primary video display to VGA and restart the server.
2. Insert IBM Netfinity S3 Trio V2/GX Device Driver Diskette (part number 24L8036) into drive A or any other diskette drive). In the following sequence the A: drive is assumed.
3. Open an OS/2 full-screen or OS/2 window session.
4. At the OS/2 command prompt, type the following command to copy all necessary files to the OS/2 drive:
- A:SETUP (where A: is the diskette drive which contains the device driver installation diskette)
- Press Enter. Due to the limitations with a single pass installation. A dialog box might come up during installation with the
message, The installed adapter does not support the selected display driver. Do you wish to continue-. Please continue the installation by selecting the Yes button.
- Press Enter. Setup will then identify your chip set. When prompted to do so, press Enter to continue.
5. When the Monitor Configuration/Selection Utility window appears, the Install Using Defaults for Monitor Type choice is preselected. Select OK.
Do NOT select Install Using Display Adapter Utility Program since this method of setting refresh rates is not supported in this device driver version.
Note: DSPINSTL determines the hardware configuration by creating the \OS2\SVGADATA.PMI file. If the \OS2\SVGADATA.PMI file has not been created, the adapter will not be supported. This process can take several seconds and will blackout the screen.
6. When the installation is complete, shut down your server, remove the diskette, and restart your computer.
7. When the server has restarted:
a. Open the OS/2 System Folder.
b. Open the System Setup Folder.
c. Open the System object.
d. When the Settings notebook (for OS/2 3.0) or System Properties (for OS/2 4.0) appears, select the Screen tab.
8. If your monitor has been detected as Plug-and-Play (DDC) compatible, continue with step 9.
If your monitor has NOT been detected as Plug-and-Play (DDC) compatible, on page 2 of the Screen tab, select your display from the display list. If your display does not appear in the list, select Default.
Restart your computer to ensure all refresh rate options are available.
9. When the server has restarted:
a. Open the System object and select page 1 of the Screen tab, as in step 7.
b. Select the desired screen resolution and a screen refresh rate.
c. Close the Settings notebook or System Properties.
d. Perform a shutdown and restart your computer.
Notes:
If the selected vertical refresh rate is not supported by your monitor, delete \OS2\VIDEO.CFG file and restart. This will set the refresh rate to the default value. A new refresh rate can then be selected using the procedure described above.
During the installation of this driver, DISPLAY.LOG and DSPINSTL.LOG files are created in the OS2\INSTALL directory. These files identify the OS/2 system files that were updated and indicate whether the installation was successful. The contents of these files might be useful if you need to report an installation problem to IBM.
The display driver should be reinstalled with any changes in video hardware configuration. Not re-installing the driver might result in serious system problems.
When starting a WIN-OS/2 session it is recommended that the user launch the session via one of the WIN-OS/2 icons located in the Command Prompts Folder within the OS/2 System icon.
