Hardware
configuration
The following hardware configurations require special procedures.
―
• Reinstalling to a mirrored volume
Disable the mirroring and reset to the basic disk. After installation, enable the mirroring
again.
Use [Computer Management] – [Disk Management] to create, disable, or remove the
mirrored volume.
―
• Peripheral devices such as RDX/MO
Remove an MO device before installing an OS. Some peripheral devices need to be halted
before installation. Refer to the manual provided with the peripheral devices for how to set
a device appropriate to installation.
―
• DAT, LTO, and similar media
Do not set media that is unnecessary to installation during setup.
―
• Reinstalling to hard disk drives that have been upgraded to dynamic disks
If the hard disk drive has been upgraded to a dynamic disk, the operating system cannot
be reinstalled to it with the existing partitions.
Set up the operating system with the OS standard installer.
―
• Connecting to multiple hard disk drives (logical drives)
For details on installing operating systems to a system in which multiple logical drives
exist, refer to Chapter 1 (3.8 Applying Service Pack).
―
• Setup when mass memory is installed
If mass memory is installed in your system, the large size of paging file is required at
installation. Thus, the partition size for storing debug information (dump file) may not be
secured.
If you fail to secure the dump file size, use OS standard installer for setup, and allocate the
required file space to multiple disks by performing the following steps.
1. Set the system partition size to a size sufficient to install the OS and paging file.
2.
Specify another disk as destination to store the debug information (required dump file
size) by referring to Chapter 1 (7. Setup for Solving Problems).
If the hard disk drive does not have enough space to write the debug information, set the
partition size to a size sufficient to install the OS and paging file, and then add another
hard disk drive for the dump file.
Note
If the partition size for installing Windows is smaller than the recommended
size, expand the partition size or add another hard disk drive.
