NOTE: If you are re-imaging a blade or installing a custom image on ClearCube blades, you

must install components in the order listed below. Failure to do so can cause

unsupported behavior.

The following list details items and steps required when imaging and configuring ClearCube
blades that use PCoIP technology. Ensure that you install items and perform steps in the order
listed below.

1. Ensure that you obtain drivers for your blade or VM from the ClearCube Support site at

http://www.clearcube.com/support/

. All drivers and downloads mentioned in this procedure

are available on the Support site.

2. Connect to the blade you are imaging. For A-series and R3082D blades, connect a zero client

to the A-series chassis. For all other R-series blades, connect a ClearCube C/Port to the
chassis slot that the blade is in. For information about configuring video for R-series blades,
see Technical Bulletin TB00264, “Video Configuration When Powering on R-Series Blades
for the First Time (OOBE).” From the Support site, select the R-series blade you are imaging.
From the blade’s home page, click Technical Bulletins.

3. Install a Windows operating system.

4. Install the Intel chipset driver appropriate for your blade.

5. Configure PCI Express

®

power management:

b. Select any power plan (you must perform this procedure on all power plans) and click

Change Plan Settings > Change advanced power settings to display the Power
Options dialog box.

c. Expand the PCI Express item. From the Link State Power Management drop-down

menu, select Off.

6. Install the Intel network adapter driver appropriate for your blade.

7. Optionally, install an appropriate RAID driver.

8. Optionally, install the Intel AMT driver. Note that AMT support typically requires BIOS-

level configuration.
