9.7 Reinstalling the OS

This section explains the procedure for reinstalling the OS.

9.7.1 Checking before OS Reinstallation

■ Removing the Optional Devices

Remove the following optional devices before reinstallation. Install or connect them after OS

installation.

• Optional SCSI device (hard disk cabinet, DAT unit, etc.)

• Internal hard disk units that do not contain the OS installation folder

• Internal backup device

• USB devices

■ Deletion of Data from the Disc

Reinstallation deletes all disk contents. Save the necessary data and system configuration in a different

location.

■ Other Notes

Notes on initial installation also apply.

9.7.2 Reinstallation Using ServerStart

When the previous installation was performed in guide or preconfiguration mode, the ServerStart floppy

disk used in that installation can be used again. When the reinstallation is performed with the same

configuration as that for the previous installation, you do not have to edit the configuration file on the

ServerStart floppy disk. You do not have to configure setting on wizards. After ServerStart starts up,

click [Start (OS) Installation] to perform installation.
