5Preparing for the InstallationOn the server PC, the operating system is installed first, followed by the OpenScape Office software. The installation script of OpenScape Office subsequently checks the minimum hardware and software requirements and possibly stops due to non-compliance or writes an entry into the installation log file. The following sections describe the details and preparations required in order to ensure that the installed Linux operating system can be used with OpenScape Office later without any problems. 5.1Server PC BIOS SettingsTo install Linux correctly, the appropriate settings must be made in the BIOS of the server PC. 5.1.1Booting from a DVD DriveThe BIOS setup of the server must be set so that the server will boot from the DVD. 5.1.2Settings for Software RAID SupportIf no RAID system is to be used or if a software RAID system is to be configured, any integrated RAID system (BIOS RAID) on the motherboard of the server, if present, will need to be first disabled. 5.1.2.1Disabling the BIOS RAIDThe disabling of the BIOS RAID is described below using the LSI MegaRAID BIOS as an example. Step by Step 1) Restart the PC. During the startup, you will see whether the BIOS RAID has been enabled. If the BIOS RAID is not enabled, skip to step 3. 2. Disable the active BIOS RAID: a) Press the appropriate key combination at the right time during the startup to enter the BIOS RAID setup. The combination will be shown to you during the startup (e.g., CTRL M for the LSI MegaRAID BIOS). b) Clear the BIOS RAID configuration. Example for LSI MegaRAID BIOS: Management Menu > Configure > Configuration Menu > Clear Configuration. c) Exit the setup of the BIOS RAID and restart the PC. 3. Disable the RAID configuration in the BIOS setup of the PC: a) Press the appropriate key (e.g., F2 or Del) at the right time during the startup to enter the BIOS setup of the PC. b) Disable the SATA RAID. Example for a Phoenix BIOS: Advanced > Advanced System Configuration > SATA RAID Disabled. c) Save your changes and exit the BIOS setup of your PC (with the F10 key, for example). 4. Restart the PC. 5.2Settings for a Virtual Machine (Optional)In order to install OpenScape Office on a virtual machine, the virtualization software must be installed first, and the virtual machine must be set up appropriately. The guest operating system (SLES) must then be installed, followed by OpenScape Office within the SLES. The installation of the virtual machine is not described in this document. This must be done on the specific hardware that is certified by each vendor in accordance with the specific instructions provided by that vendor (see section 8.3). For the installation of the SLES and OpenScape Office software within the virtualized machine, the same procedure as for physical servers applies. 5.2.1OpenScape Office HX V2In order to run SLES and OpenScape Office HX V2 in a VSphere ESX / ESXi environment, the following minimum requirements must be configured in the virtual machine.
5.2.2OpenScape Office LX V3In order to run SLES and OpenScape Office LX V3 in a VSphere ESX / ESXi environment, the following minimum requirements must be configured in the virtual machine.
