Proliant DL100 storage server rebuild

[Jon White]

This is not so much of an issue. I am actually looking for advice and past experience stories to avoid trouble.

I have a DL100 Proliant Storage server that I have to rebuild tomorrow. It is a G1 (no onboard DVD drive). I have an Iomega DVD external drive. I also have the 'HP ProLiant DL100 Storage Server Quick Restore Release 4.3' DVD.

There is little to no documentation other than booting off the DVD. Does anybody have any advice or gotcha's that you found out while rebuilding one of these DL100's? If it went smoothly, I wouldn't mind hearing the good news too. I just need this to go well.

Thank you!
