1.1 Notes, Cautions, and Warnings
Note A NOTE indicates important information that helps you make better use of your
computer.
CAUTION
A CAUTION indicates potential damage to hardware or loss of data if instructions
are not followed.
WARNING
A WARNING indicates a potential for property damage, personal injury, or death.
1.2 Installation And Configuration
Note Before performing the following procedure, review the safety instructions that came
with the system.
1.2.1 Unpacking a Rack System
Unpack your system and identify each item.
Assemble the rails and install the system in the rack following the safety instructions
and the rack installation instructions provided with your system.

1.3 Operating System Installation
The NovaScale R460 F3 offers an embedded Configuration utility: the Lifecycle
Controller - Unified Server Configurator, which includes an OS Deployment Wizard
that assists you with the installation of the Operating System.
Refer to the technical characteristics of the Server on
www.bull.com/novascale to get
the list of supported Operating Systems.
Notes • The list of Operating Systems offered by the Lifecycle controller may be larger than the
list of the supported Operating Systems.
• For the installation of a supported Operating System not listed in the Lifecycle
controller, see
http://support.bull.com.
• For the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.x server installation, if the software has been
ordered from Bull, you got a media & doc package which contains the Bull Installation
Pack (BIP) software. You can use the BIP to automatically install some useful packages
of the Red Hat distribution. It is time saving for a smart installation. Don’t use the
Lifecycle controller if you decide to use the BIP.
Residing on an embedded flash memory chip, the Lifecycle controller is similar to a
BIOS utility in that it can be started during the boot sequence and can function
independently of an installed operating system.
It provides drivers that may be required for operating system installation, depending
on which operating system you are installing. The OS Deployment wizard extracts
these drivers and copies them to a staging directory. These files are deleted after an
18-hour period or when you press the <F10> key to either cancel operating system
installation or re-enter Lifecycle controller after rebooting.
Bull NovaScale R460 F3 Getting Started Guide 4
Bull NovaScale R460 F3 Getting Started Guide 5
Note During the 18-hour period when the drivers are extracted to the temporary location,
you cannot update the Lifecycle controller firmware, drivers, or diagnostics using a
Driver Update Package after the operating system is installed. In that case the Driver
Update Package will display a message that another session is open.
For supported Microsoft® Windows® operating systems and for supported Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 6.x, these extracted drivers are installed during the operating system
installation.
For supported VMware ESXi 5.x, if the VMware media used for the installation does
not include the drivers required for the server, you can download from
http://support.bull.com, a ESXi installer image created by Bull. This image may
contain additional certified drivers.
Before installing the operating system, the OS Deployment wizard detects if a boot
device is available. A boot device is a physical disk, virtual disk, or other storage
device on which the operating system can be installed.
1.3.1 To begin installation
1. Connect the keyboard, monitor, mouse, and any additional peripherals to your
system.
2. Turn on the system and the attached peripherals.
3. Press <F10> in the POST to start the Lifecycle controller.
Note The Entering Lifecycle Controller message is displayed.
4. Click OS Deployment in the left pane.
5. Click Deploy OS in the right pane.
Notes • If your system has a RAID controller, you have the option of
launching the RAID Configuration wizard and configuring a
virtual disk as the boot device.
• If your system does not have a RAID controller, the OS
Deployment wizard bypasses the RAID configuration option
and goes directly to "Select an Operating System".
6. Select the operating system you want to install and click Next.
7. The Lifecycle controller extracts the drivers required by the operating system you
selected. The drivers are extracted to an internal USB drive named OEMDRV.
Notes • The process for extracting the drivers may take several minutes.
• All drivers copied by the OS Deployment wizard are removed
after 18 hours. You must complete the operating system
installation within 18 hours for the copied drivers to be available.
To remove the drivers before the 18-hour period is over, reboot
the system and press the <F10> key to re-enter Lifecycle
controller.
8. Choose the boot mode, UEFI or BIOS, for the selected Operating System
installation and click Next.
9. After the drivers are extracted, the Lifecycle controller prompts you to insert the
operating system installation media.
Note When installing the supported Microsoft Windows operating system,
the extracted drivers are automatically installed during the operating
system installation.
When installing the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.x operating system, the
extracted drivers are automatically installed during the operating
system installation. Be careful, there is an issue with the Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 6.1 which affects the Lifecycle controller based
installation. See "Install Drivers for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.1 ".
10. Insert the operating system installation media when prompted and click Next.
Note The Lifecycle controller supports internal SATA optical drives, USB
optical drives, and virtual media devices. If the installation media is
corrupt or not readable, then the Lifecycle controller may be unable to
detect the presence of a supported optical drive. In this case, you may
receive an error message stating that no optical drive is available. If
the media is not valid (if it is the incorrect CD or DVD, for example), a
message displays requesting that you insert the correct installation
media.
11. Click Finish to reboot the system and continue with the operating system
installation. Upon reboot, the system boots to the operating system installation
media.
Notes • When the system reboots after you click Finish, you may be
prompted to press a key before booting to the operating system
installation media. If you do not press a key, the system boots to
the hard drive and not the operating system installation media.
• In the event that the operating system installation is interrupted
and the system reboots before installation completes, you may be
prompted to press a key in order to boot from the operating
system installation media.
• You can cancel the operating system installation by pressing the
<F10> key. Pressing the <F10> key at any point during the
installation process or while rebooting causes any drivers
provided by the OS Deployment wizard to be removed.
CAUTION
To get round an issue during Red Hat 6.1 installation, you will have
to manually install the drivers. See "Install Drivers for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 6.1 ".
