10 Chapter 2 Setup and Installation

Note: Some portable storage devices aren’t fast enough to use as startup volumes. If

you insert your portable storage device and a dialog appears asking you to eject a CD-

ROM, this signifies that your drive isn’t fast enough. If your drive isn’t fast enough to

use as a startup volume, it can’t be used for AXD tools.

You can’t use these instructions on any storage devices that are currently in use. If you

want to create empty volumes on the storage device that’s currently running Mac OS X

Server, you’ll need to load Disk Utility from the Mac OS X installation disc or load Disk

Utility while your Xserve is connected to another computer and is in target disk mode.

Both of these methods erase the contents of your Xserve’s hard drive and require you

to reinstall and reconfigure Mac OS X Server.

To create empty storage device volumes and correctly format them:

1 Open Disk Utility (located in /Applications/Utilities).

Make sure you open Disk Utility on a computer with Mac OS X or Mac OS X Server

version 10.4.10 or later installed.

2 Select the storage device that you want to set up.

Make sure you select a storage device, and not volumes within the storage device.

Volumes within a storage device are indented one level.

3 Click the Partition tab.

4 Review the partition sizes and adjust them to meet AXD tools storage requirements.

5 If you’re going to install AXD Mac OS X tools on a volume in the storage device, click

Options, select GUID Partition Table, and click OK.

6 Click Partition.

WARNING: The following instructions will erase all data on your storage device. Back

up critical data before performing the following instructions.

To do this Do this

Display a partition’s size Click the partition and review the Size field.

Set the size of the partition Edit the Size field.

Prevent a partition from being

automatically adjusted when

you edit other partitions

Click the lock icon in the partition.

Create more partitions Click Split.

Delete partitions Click Delete.

Name a partition Select it and enter a name in the Name field. Because this name is

used when selecting which volume to start up Mac OS X in, choose

a name that identifies the volume as being used for AXD tools.
