3 Loading AXD Tools

Before you load AXD tools, make sure you’ve properly

installed and configured the tools. For more information, see

Chapter 2, “Setup and Installation,” on page 8.

If you want to remotely test a client Xserve, you’ll need to first load AXD tools on the

host computer, and then load the AXD tools on the client Xserve.

To load AXD tools, set the startup volume of the Xserve to the volume or disk image

containing the AXD tools. If Mac OS X Server loads on your Xserve, you can change the

startup disk in Startup Disk System Preferences. Otherwise, you can temporarily change

the startup disk by pressing and holding one of several keys when starting up the

Xserve:

Startup Disk System Preferences can load only AXD Mac OS X tools. Pressing the Option

key at startup can load AXD EFI tools and AXD Mac OS X tools.

The Xserve becomes unavailable whenever you use AXD. Before starting tests, alert

your users that the server will be unavailable.

Changing the Startup Disk in System Preferences

If your Xserve can load Mac OS X Server, you can use System Preferences to change the

startup disk. The list of startup volumes includes internal volumes and connected

portable storage device volumes.
