Setup completion
After the Data Protection Storage Server is physically set up and the basic con fig uration is established as
described in the H P ProLiant Data Protection Storage Server installation guide, additional setup tasks
must be completed. Depending on the deployment scenario of the storage server, these steps can
vary. These additional steps can include:
• Running Microsoft Windows Update—HP highly recommends that you run Microsoft Windows
updates to identify, review, and install the latest, applicable, critical security updates on the storage
server. For recommendations, instructions, and documentation to help manage the software
update, hotfix, and security patches process on the storage server, see Microsoft Software Updates
on HP ProLiant Storage Servers at h
ttp://h18006.www1.hp.com/storage/storageservers.html.
• Creating and m anaging users and groups—User and group information and permissions
determine whether a user can access files. In a domain environment, user and group information
is stored on the domain.
• Joining domains—For information on managing users and g roups on a domain, refer to the
domain documentation available on the Microsoft web site.
• Using Ethernet NIC teaming (optional)—This model is equipped with the HP NIC Teaming utility.
The utility allows administrators to configu re and monitor Ethernet network interface controller
(NIC) teams in a Windows-based o p erating system. These teams provide options for increasing
fault tolerance and throughput. For more information, see "NIC teaming" on page 47.
• Activating iLO 2 Advanced features using a license key— The Remote Console feature of iLO 2
requires a license key. The key is included with the storage server inside the Country Kit. Refer
to the iLO 2 Advanced License Pack for activation instructions.
• Installing third-party software applications—For example, these might include an antivirus
application tha t you install.
