Installing the Network Teaming and Configuration

Utility

The CPQTEAM Utility enables multiple NICs to be teamed together. You must run the ProLiant Support
Pack software to install the CPQTEAM utility. Refer to "Using ProLiant support software (on page

19

)."

During the CPQTEAM software installation process, a message might appear, stating that the

CPQTEAM.DLL file is needed. A default path appears in the message box. Click OK to accept the path

and continue with the installation.

Creating an additional page file

When additional memory or software applications are installed on the server, errors can occur in the

event log, indicating that the C drive is nearing capacity. To solve this problem, move applications

located on the C drive to another partition or create a page file. Creating the page file on a separate
partition to support the amount of memory in the server is the most efficient solution.
After an additional page file has been created, set the page file on the boot partition to the amount of

memory in the server. For additional information about creating page files, refer to the Help file, which

can be accessed by clicking Start and selecting Help and Support.
