Using server application programs

Specific server application programs or services, such as AppleShare,
AppleSearch, Apple Remote Access, or Apple RAID Software, may have been
included with your server. Review the documentation that came with the
software before you install these services; you may be required to perform
special procedures that can affect your server system before you use a
particular service. For instance, Apple RAID Software requires you to
reinitialize the hard disks you want to use for storing server data.

IMPORTANT

You can also use your Workgroup Server 8150 as a desktop

personal computer to run personal application programs. Running such
programs, however, may degrade the performance of your server application
programs or network services.

Setting the system time and date

As noted in Chapter 1, some server application programs require that your
system clock be set correctly. If you need step-by-step instructions for setting
the system time and date, see the “Setting Options” topic of Macintosh Guide,
available in the Guide (

h) menu.

Order of installing and starting programs

Though your server may have come with server application programs or
network services, you may want to install additional software. Note that the
order in which server application programs are installed and started is
important. Be sure to review the documentation, especially product Read Me
files, for all the server application programs you plan to use before installing
and running them. Also, refer to the Workgroup Server Read Me file on your
server system’s hard disk for the most up-to-date news about installing server
application programs.
