4 Configuring the messaging system software
This chapter explains how to configure system software using the HP E5000 Configuration Wizard
and how to deploy Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 using the HP E5000 Messaging System
Exchange Deployment Tool.
IMPORTANT: To configure the E5000 messaging system, you must run these tools on each server
blade.
HP recommends that you fully complete the Configuration Wizard and Exchange Deployment Tool
on the Bay 1 server blade before beginning to configure the Bay 2 server blade.
After you have completed the initial configuration, be sure to install any available software updates
as described in “ Updating the messaging system software” (page 63).
Configuring server software
The HP E5000 solution should be powered up and the network ports cabled for your network
configuration, including the EMU port. For configurations that use expansion nodes, such as the
E57000, all storage enclosures should be cabled to the messaging system and powered on.
Complete the following steps, first on server 1, and then on server 2. Do not start on the second
server until you have completed the steps on server 1. When the server is powered up for the first
time, it completes the initial Windows configuration process and then launches the E5000 Messaging
System Configuration Wizard
1. Enter your locale information in the Windows setup dialog and accept the license terms. The
Windows setup completes in approximately 15 minutes and the E5000 Configuration Wizard
starts.
2. Enter the EMU Administrator password as instructed in the E5000 Configuration Wizard
window:
The wizard automatically runs a diagnostics program to ensure that the HP E5000 solution is
correctly configured. An error message appears if there is a configuration error. When the
configuration is correct, the E5000 Configuration Wizard resumes.
3. When the Welcome screen appears, HP recommends that you select the default action, Yes,

setup.
