Hi. New ML350 G3 server. It came with SBS2003 but we wanted to load W2003 STANDARD ON IT.
Used smartstart to boot and then used erase utility to erase everything(drives/nvram/cmos) then bootup with smartstart. Everything seems fine. I used the ACU to setup my drives in mirrors etc and left a spare.
However, when it boots up I get message saying scsi bios not found! Then when I ran the smartstart test utility, everything is fine except for my SCSI HP72 Tape drive which fails a test. It says to load a tape. However the eject test went fine.
I'm sure the id for the device is fine (3) and if the server can run an eject command then the scsi setup is good. But what do I do about the SCSI bios?
What am I doing wrong? I had the idea that my hardware should be configured BEFORE doing an assisted OS install.
Which is why I thought I'd test it all before proceeding.
TIA
