Advisories
This section contains advisories on the EXPRESSBUILDER, Windows 2000,
SCO and system hardware.
EXPRESSBUILDER
!If you already have an operating system installed when creating a
maintenance partition, EXPRESSBUILDER will warn you of the existing
partition. If you want to preserve the installed operating system, do not
create the maintenance partition or the existing operating system will be
overlaid by the maintenance partition.
!EXPRESSBUILDER EasySetup always configures the Windows 2000
TCP/IP Protocol IP settings to "Obtain an IP address automatically"
(DHCP), regardless of the IP address setting specified in EasySetup. If static
TCP/IP addressing is required, TCP/IP must be reconfigured. Refer to
Windows documentation for instructions.
!The Administrator Menu in the System Information Management segment
of the Offline Maintenance Utility is accessible only by NEC authorized
service representatives.
!EXPRESSBUILDER operates in floppy emulation mode. The emulated
floppy drive portion of your system CD-ROM is designated Drive A and the
remaining portion(s) of the CD-ROM is designated Drive Q. Your system
diskette drive is Drive B. After creating the Off-line Maintenance Utility
diskette, EXPRESSBUILDER prompts you to remove the diskette from
Drive B. At this prompt, remove the diskette from your diskette drive.

Windows 2000
!After installing Windows 2000, the Windows 2000 Device Manager may
show an NEC GEM SCSI Processor Device and/or an Unknown Device
under Other Devices. The Unknown Device is a reference to the baseboard
management controller. Installing the ESMPRO Agent can clear both of
these conditions.
SCO
The following advisory applies when using SCO 5.05.
!During the installation of SCO or any time thereafter when booting SCO a
warning message may appear as follows:
WARNING: Cannot connect to APM, error 0x0036 System loaded, press
<Return> to start:
To prevent the WARNING message from appearing, boot the system to
single-user Mode. Edit the /etc/default/boot file. Add "apm.check=no" to the
end of the line indicated by the "DEFBOOTSTR=" entry.
System Hardware
The following advisory applies to the USB ports on your server's external device
connectors.
!The factory standard default value of the USB ports on your server is
"Disabled". To enable them, the USB Controller feature in the Peripheral
Configuration Submenu of the BIOS Setup Utility described in Chapter 3
"BIOS Setup Configuration Settings" must be changed to "Enabled".
The following advisory applies to the Plug and Play feature of your server's I/O
expansion boards.
!The factory standard default value (PnP O/S) of the Plug N Play feature in
your server is selected. The Windows 2000 operating system requires that
the PnP O/S feature be selected. To deselect it, if required by your operating
system, the Installed O/S feature in the Advanced Submenu of the BIOS
Setup Utility described in Chapter 3 "BIOS Setup Configuration Settings"
can be changed to "Other."
The following advisory applies to the SCSI interface cabling within your
system.
!The external SCSI connector located on the rear panel of your server unit is
not connected internally unless an optional RAID controller is installed.
