Windows Server and Existing Storage
System Without Boot Disk
This checklist is for an existing storage system that will not contain a
Windows Server 2003 or Windows 2000 boot disk. If you want the
existing storage system to contain a boot disk, use the procedure that
starts on 7-25.
Tasks highlighted with grey in the checklist should be completed
before the service provider arrives.
The Without Access Logix column does not apply to CX300, CX500, CX500i,
and CX700 storage systems because they ship from the factory with the
Access Logix enabler installed.
