Turning off your server

Every time you turn off your server, first shut down the operating system. You may lose data

if you do not follow the correct procedure.

To turn off the server:

1 See the operating system’s documentation or online help for instructions on shutting down

the operating system. Whenever possible, you should use the operating system’s shut

down procedure instead of pressing the power button.

2 If your server did not turn off automatically, press the power button.

- OR -

Press the reset button to reset the server.

Setting up the operating system

If you ordered your server with the operating system already installed by Gateway, in most cases

it is completely installed and the basic settings are already configured. The Windows Small

Business Server operating system may require additional installation, depending on the version

you ordered. See your operating system’s documentation for instructions on completing the

installation or configuring advanced settings for your specific network.

If you are installing an operating system because it was not already installed by Gateway, see

the appropriate installation guide for instructions.

Initial hardware settings

Your server comes from the manufacturer with the correct initial hardware settings to operate

your server as configured. However, you might want to change settings to reflect a tasking

change, a change in security requirements, or the addition of new resources to your server.

General hardware settings can be changed by using the BIOS Setup utility. For information on

the BIOS Setup utility, see “Using the BIOS Setup Utility” on page 57. For information on BIOS

settings, see “BIOS Settings” on page 91.

Caution

The power button on the server does not turn off server AC power. To

remove AC power from the server, you must unplug the AC power cords from the

wall outlet or power source. The power cords are considered the disconnect device

to the main (AC) power.
