    A few Q's about my 5600's

    I got mine here: http://www-306.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/MIGR-495PES.html I put ServeRaid in the search box (on the IBM homepage, and it was the first result). - LC

    Proliant 1600 Boot order

    when doing a system erase, you can remove the cable from your SCSI cage and you wont lose your array config, or its data. Then, after you are prompted to powercycle your system, reconnect the cable. the drives will teach thier config to your controller, and you should then be able to boot from a...

    Proliant 5500 Firmware will not upgrade?

    there was no PII300 version of the 5500. There was a common bios of the 66Mhz FSB, and a different one for the 100Mhz FSB 3000/5500, which is what you may be thinking of.

    Windows 2003 on ProLiant 6500 (PPro version E25)

    Windows 2003 server will not do SMP on Pentium Pro processors. There is no workaround for this. That will make one whale of a linux box ... - LC

    F1 and F10 Message

    the system will F1 you only if there is a problem. Just bypassing it wont address the issue. I would suggest fixing the problem, rather than ignoring it and making the symptom go away. however, to make the F1 prompt go away, f10 into the system utiities. on the first screen, press CTRL+A to get...

    Prolaint 3000 first start

    you wont get the f10 message if there isnt a system partition on the drives. remove that 3COM NIC and see what happens. I would suggest doing a system erase and starting from scratch. - LC

    ML370 CPU upgrade?

    SCU: System Configuration Utility. Yes, its on the system partition. Best practices dictate that whenever a new component is added or removed from a system, update the NVRAM by way of the SCU. Failure to do so may result in partial device functionallity, or erratic behavior. - LC

    Proliant 5500 dual PIII Xeon processor mixing?

    No, it wont boot. You can match various cache sizes of the xeons, provided that you do so in pairs ( in the older G1's ). - LC

    ML370 G1 - Which SmartStart For Windows 2003 ?

    Renne ... SS 5.50 will not do 2003. It will do 2000. Just use 5.50 and do a manual integrated installation. At the end, put in your 2003 media and install. When you are done, just run the PSP 7.10 for 2k3 and you are at about the same place you would have been if 5.50 did 2k3. Cheers, - LC

    Proliant 2500 upgrade

    There is also a very, very rare PII/333 upgrade kit for that machine. It replaces most of the guts of that box so you can have slot 1 processors in it. But, for practical purposes, the PII-OD is a great choice. As already posted, 333Mhz, but with 512K FULL SPEED L2 cache ... runs like a...

    ML370 CPU upgrade?

    After you put the prox in the 370, did your run the SCU to update the NVRAM of the server? Do you have the latest BIOS for the 370? - LC

Now, im no stranger to Netfinity servers, but I am stumped on a couple issues: Basic Config: Bios: 17 1.5GB...
