Device-Driver Installation Instructions: The device drivers necessary for the Netfinity Advanced System Management PCI Adapter to function properly can be installed in one of two ways:
- Use the CoPilot ApplicationGuide CD to install the device drivers.
To install the device drivers with the CoPilot ApplicationGuide CD follow the instructions provided in the "Installing Application Programs" section of the "Software and Netfinity Manager Reference" section of this Server Library.
- Use the CoPilot ApplicationGuide CD and Diskette Factory to create the diskettes you will need to install the device drivers.
You will need to create one of the following diskettes:
- IBM Netfinity 7000-M10 Device Drivers for Advanced System Management, version 1.00
- Advanced System Management Device Driver Diskette
Follow the Diskette Factory instructions provided on the ApplicationGuide CoPilot CD to create the diskettes.
If you choose to use the ApplicationGuide CoPilot CD to install the device drivers you will not need to perform any additional steps to finish installing your device drivers.
If you choose to use Diskette Factory to create diskettes and manually install the device drivers, use the following instructions to complete the device driver installation.
1. Insert the diskette labelled IBM Netfinity 7000-M10 Device Drivers for Advanced System Management, version 1.00 or Advanced System Management Device Driver Diskette into the primary diskette drive.
