How to set up LAN Alerts
On the managed server:
Boot to the System Setup Utility (SSU) from either the Service Partition or the System Resource CD > Platform Event Manager > Configure LAN > Enable LAN Alerts
On the client side:
Install Intel® Server Management > Start > Programs > Intel Server Management > LAN Alerts Viewer > Configure

OS install cannot detect hard drives
A single drive jumpered as slave will allow RAID array creation, but the OS install will fail. Configure single drives as master instead.
