General
Setting Up Your System for the First Time
When setting up your system for the first time, you should do so as follows:
1. Set up the basic system hardware as described in the system documentation. However, do
not connect any external peripherals to the system’s SCSI ports.
2. Start the system and complete operating system Setup as described in the system
documentation.
3. Use the Windows NT Disk Administrator program to assign drive letter C to the primary
system disk drive.
4. Connect any external peripherals to the system’s SCSI ports.
5. Configure the system as described in the system documentation.
This ensures that any system devices which require access to drive C, and which assume that
drive C is the primary system disk drive, do not operate incorrectly or cause any operating
system errors.
See Disk Administrator Help for instructions on assigning a drive letter.
Systems with More Than 2 GB of Memory
Because of an operating system limitation, an InterServe 8400 with more than 2 GB of
memory ships with only 2 GB configured for use, although all memory ordered is installed in
the system. After completing Windows NT Setup, you must set the system’s BIOS to use all
of the system’s memory.
If you reinstall the operating system, you must set the system’s BIOS to limit memory use to 2
GB before starting installation. After completing Windows NT Setup, you must reset the
system’s BIOS to use all of the system’s memory.
NOTE The system’s BIOS must be at revision E (8330E.ROM) or greater.
To set the system’s BIOS to limit or not limit memory use:
1. Restart the system and, when prompted, press DELETE to run the BIOS Setup program.
2. In the BIOS Setup menu, select Advanced.
3. In the Advanced menu, select Use Only 2GB of Memory.
2
4. Do one of the following, as appropriate:
− Change the value to Enabled to limit memory use to 2 GB.
− Change the value to Disabled to use all of the system’s memory.
5. Save the change and exit from BIOS Setup.
6. Restart the system.
You can also reset the BIOS to Optimal to use all of the system’s memory. See the System
Setup document delivered with the system for more information on the system’s BIOS.
NOTE The System Properties dialog (under Start/Settings/Control Panel/System) shows only 2 GB of
memory on systems with more than 2 GB of memory enabled. To verify the correct amount of
memory, check the Memory tab of the Windows NT Diagnostics dialog (under
Start/Programs/Administrative Tools).
Three-Button Primax Mouse
If your system was delivered with a three-button Primax mouse, you may see a message that
says “MouseWare has detected a new Wheel Mouse....” and asks if you want to configure the
new device. If this happens, select No. If you experience any other anomalies while using the
Primax mouse, reinstall the mouse driver found on the Windows NT software CD-ROM.
Logitech Wheel Mouse
If your system was delivered with a Logitech wheel mouse, you can find information on using
it by right-clicking the mouse icon in the taskbar tray, or by going to Start/Settings/Control
Panel/Mouse and clicking Help in the toolbar.
If the wheel on the mouse does not function, or if you experience any other anomalies while
using the wheel mouse, install theLMOUSE driver software from the Intergraph System CD
using InterSite Version Manager.
Installing and Using Power Console
On a server with an InterRAID disk array, you should install the MegaRAID Power Console
software. You should also add a shortcut to Power Console to the Windows NT Startup menu
(Start/Programs/Startup). Power Console provides valuable information about the health of
the RAID disk array, and can help you pinpoint any problems that may occur in disk array
operation. Power Console can even help predict disk array problems before they occur,
allowing you to take action before problems become critical.
3
Power Console installation is described in the System Setup document delivered with the
system. Power Console is detailed in the InterRAID documentation delivered with the system.
See Windows NT Help for information on adding a shortcut to the Start menu.
Third Channel for Secondary RAID Controllers
When expanding an InterServe 8400 to use the third channel of any secondary RAID
controllers, the internal cables extend from the PCI slots to the third-channel ports as follows:
u
Attach the internal third-channel cable from the RAID controller in PCI slot 5 to the third-
channel port above PCI slot 5.
u
Attach the internal third-channel cable from the RAID controller in PCI slot 6 to the third-
channel port above PCI slot 6.
u
Attach the internal third-channel cable from the RAID controller in PCI slot 7 to the third-
channel port above PCI slot 7.
NOTE The primary RAID controller (in PCI slot 4) is a two-channel controller.
See the System Reference for information on PCI slot assignments, and the InterRAID
documentation for information on RAID expansion.
Intel PRO/100B Adapter Self-Test Failure
If an Intel PRO/100B network adapter is installed in any of PCI slots 4 through 12, it may fail
the loopback portion of the self-test. However, if you finish configuring the adapter for use,
the adapter works correctly after you restart the system.
Inserting a Power Supply
When inserting a power supply into a running InterServe 8400 (for example, when replacing a
failed power supply), push the supply completely into the system. Once the supply is fully
seated, close the extraction lever. If the supply does not power on, simply pull the power
supply out, wait at least 45 seconds, and push it back into place. The DC OK LED on the
back of the power supply illuminates to indicate that the power supply has powered on.
Preparing a Deltec UPS for Transportation
Before moving a system with a Deltec uninterruptible power supply (UPS), you must prepare
the UPS for transportation to prevent its battery from draining during the move.
4
To prepare a Deltec UPS for transportation:
1. Press the OFF (middle) button on the front of the UPS, and hold it down until you hear a
beep. The UPS goes into bypass mode and continues to run. Do not press the ON/OFF
button.
2. Disconnect the UPS power cord from the wall outlet. The UPS may run for a few
seconds.
3. Verify that the UPS fans and LEDs turn off; then package the UPS for transportation.
For more information about powering the UPS off and on, see the Deltec UPS documentation.
Windows NT 4.0
Resetting a Hung ISM Card
An InterSite Server Monitor (ISM) card (also called Server Monitor Module [SMM] or
Emergency Management Card [EMC]) in an InterServe 8400 may hang if system power is
turned off, then on again quickly, using the system’s keyswitch.
To determine if the server’s ISM card is hung:
See the Anomalies and Open Problems\Emergency Management Card\EMC Communication
section of the README.TXT file delivered with the ISM software kit. This section describes
how to identify a hung ISM card, and how to attempt to reset the card without doing a physical
reset.
To physically reset the ISM card:
1. Shut down the server and turn off system power. Turn off the server’s breaker switch.
2. Open the server to get to the ISM card. See the documentation delivered with the server
and with InterSite Server Monitor for more information.
3. Unplug the white J1 connector between the battery pack and the ISM card.
CAUTION Gently pull the connector loose. Do not use a metal object to separate the connector from the
socket, and do not pull on the wires in the connector, or damage may result.
4. Reconnect the J1 connector to its socket.
5. Replace the server’s right side panel.
6. Turn on system power.
5
Installing the Adaptec SCSI Controller Driver
If you have to reinstall Windows NT 4.0, be sure to reinstall the driver for the SCSI controller
(2940SCSIDRV) from backup diskette during Setup.
To install the 2940SCSIDRV driver during Setup:
1. When prompted, press Sto bypass detection of mass storage devices.
2. When prompted, press Sto specify a mass storage device other than those listed.
3. When prompted, select Other from the list of devices presented.
4. Follow the prompts to install the driver from the 2940SCSIDRV backup diskette. When
presented with a list of Adaptec SCSI controllers, select the entry for Windows NT 4.0.
Installing QFE Software
Quick-Fix Engineering (QFE) update software contains fixes for operating system problems or
limitations. If a system requires Quick-Fix Engineering (QFE) update software, it is installed
on the system before it leaves the factory. If QFE update software is installed on the system, a
QFE backup diskette is delivered with the system. You can also create a QFE backup diskette
using InterSite Version Manager.
If you reinstall Windows NT 4.0 and the Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack 3 software, be sure to
reinstall the QFE update software as well. Install the QFE update software after you reinstall
Service Pack 3 software. QFE update software contains post-Service Pack 3 fixes.
