PARAMETER FILE CREATOR

The Parameter File Creator is a tool that creates a parameters file that is used to configure the server
with Express Setup (see Chapter 5 for details).
Using a parameters file with Express Setup automates many of the installation steps of the operating
system and system utilities. Also, you can reinstall the system with the same settings as before by
using a parameter file. It is recommended to create a parameters file to setup the server with NEC
EXPRESSBUILDER.
When using a floppy disk, a USB floppy disk drive is required.
IMPORTANT: You cannot create a parameters file for Microsoft
Windows Server 2003 x64 Editions.
NOTE: You can install Windows Server 2003 without a parameters
file. Also, you can create or edit a parameters file during setup with
NEC EXPRESSBUILDER.
