For detailed information about installing Mac OS X Server on the Xserve, including
information about setting up and using an administrator computer so you can install
on an Xserve that doesnt have a display or keyboard, see Mac OS X Server: Server
Administration at www.apple.com/server/resources.
Using a NetBoot Server to Install over the Network
You can use a remote computer to install server software on one Xserve or to
automate the process of installing on many Xserve systems. For information, see
Mac OS X Server: Server Administration and Mac OS X Server: System Imaging and
Software Update Administration at www.apple.com/server/resources.
Using Apple Remote Desktop or Other VNC Software
Apple Remote Desktop (ARD) is enabled when you start up the Xserve using the
Mac OS X Server Install DVD, so you can perform the installation from another computer
running Apple Remote Desktop or other VNC viewer software. For information, see
Mac OS X Server: Server Administration at www.apple.com/server/resources.
Using Screen Sharing
If you’re using a remote computer with Mac OS X or Mac OS X Server version 10.5
installed to connect to an Xserve with a known IP address, you can use Screen Sharing
to install Mac OS X Server.
To install using Screen Sharing:
1 Insert the Mac OS X Server Install DVD in the Xserve optical drive.
2 Use the front panel controls to start up the Xserve from the optical drive.
For information, see Choosing a Startup Method from the Front Panel” on page 14.
The Xserve starts up from the disc in the optical drive and a login prompt appears in
the Terminal window.
3 On the remote computer, open the Finder and choose Go > Connect to Server.
4 In the Server Address eld, enter the following, and then click Connect:
vnc://ipaddress
Replace ipaddress with the IP address or DNS name of the Xserve.
5 Don’t enter anything in the Name eld. In the Password eld, enter the rst eight
characters of the Xserve serial number. Click Connect.
6 In the shared screen window, proceed with the installation.
For more information about Screen Sharing, see Mac Help.
