This paper describes the level of support available for Microsoft Windows Web Server, Standard

Server, and Enterprise Server editions of the Windows Server 2003 family with Service Pack 1. It

does not describe support for Itanium® 2-based systems.

Additionally, the focus of this document does not include performing upgrades to Windows Server

2003. For information of this nature, refer to the integration note titled "Upgrading to Microsoft

Windows Server 2003 with Service Pack 1 on ProLiant servers." This document and others pertaining

to Windows Server 2003 can be found at www.hp.com/go/windows.

Introduction to Windows Server 2003 and Service Pack 1

Windows Server 2003 is an extension of the Windows 2000 operating system (OS) environment

developed to enhance the customer experience and to improve the overall usability and deployment.

With few exceptions, application code developed for use under Windows 2000 will work with the

Windows Server 2003 family of operating systems.

Microsoft provides Windows Server 2003 in both 32-bit and 64-bit editions. The 64-bit edition

supports the Intel® Itanium® and Intel ® Itanium® 2 processors.

This paper covers the 32-bit editions of Windows Server 2003 running on ProLiant servers based on

the x86 architecture.

Microsoft delivered Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1 to enhance security, increase reliability,

and simplify administration of Windows Server 2003. Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1

provides refinements and supplies cumulative system patches to Windows Server 2003.

Supported configurations

Windows Server 2003 SP1 should load and run on any ProLiant server that meets the recommended

hardware configuration established by Microsoft.

Carefully review this document for the recommended system configuration and possible issues you

might encounter. Performing due diligence optimizes your resources and testing scenarios. Do not use

this paper as your sole source of information. In addition to the websites mentioned throughout this

paper, you might also want to visit the Windows Server 2003 support page at

http://h18004.www1.hp.com/products/servers/software/microsoft/OS/Windows2003_support.html and the

Microsoft website at www.microsoft.com/.

Recommended system configuration

Table 1 lists the recommended minimum system configuration established by Microsoft for Windows

Server 2003. These requirements do not change for applying Windows server 2003 SP1. The

recommendations listed here pertain to the Windows Server 2003 operating system only and do not

include the requirements for software applications that run on your system. Please check your

application requirements to make certain your system can run both the operating system and your

software. Most software vendors have this information posted to their website.

Note 3: The ROM for this ProLiant server supports the Microsoft®Emergency

Management Service console feature in Windows Server 2003.

Note 4: This System ROM upgrade is considered a critical fix and is required to

correct Issue 1 in the “Known issues and workarounds” section of this paper. HP

strongly recommends immediate application of required critical fixes. Neglecting to

perform the required action could leave the server in an unstable condition, which

could potentially result in sub-optimal server performance, server lockups or failures,

ungraceful server shutdowns, hardware damage, or data corruption or loss. By

disregarding this notification, the customer accepts the risk of incurring future

related events.
