Dell PowerEdge 6300 Systems User's Guide
The utility partition is a bootable partition on the hard-disk drive that provides most of
the functions that are available on the Dell Server Assistant CD. Dell has installed the
utility partition on your hard-disk drive; however, reinstalling the utility partition and/or
its contents may be necessary if the version installed by Dell becomes damaged or is
removed from the hard-disk drive.
Reinstall the utility partition and/or its contents using the Dell Server Assistant CD as
follows:
If the system does not boot from the CD, see the Dell Server Assistant docu-
mentation or see "Booting From the CD" found earlier in this chapter.
The installation program surveys your system to determine the appropriate
method and location for the utility partition installation.
During this examination of your system, messages may be displayed, depending
on your system configuration. If a utility partition already exists on your system,
you are prompted to specify if you want to overwrite the existing partition; click
OK to continue or Cancel to return to the utility partition menu. If other messages
are displayed, note the information; then click OK.
If your system meets all of the requirements, the utility partition is installed and a
message is displayed indicating that the installation was successful.
You can now access the utility partition by pressing <F10> when prompted during the
power-on self-test (POST).
For more information about the utility partition, see "Utility Partition" found later in
this chapter.
