<h2 id="rzahqdifco">Considerations</h2>
<p>Although an integrated Windows server is much like a PC-based Windows server,
here are a few differences that you need to consider:</p>
<ul>
<li><img src="delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />There may not be a diskette drive available. This means that
you cannot use a startup diskette or an emergency repair diskette. However,
you can use iSeries&trade; disk space to back up your files or the entire
disk image.<img src="deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></li>
<li>iSeries tape and disk devices are available.</li>
<li>LAN adapters, cables, hubs, or switches are not required for TCP/IP communication
with the iSeries server or other integrated servers when using virtual networking.</li>
<li>Installing the Microsoft&reg; Windows operating system with
Windows environment on iSeries is different from a typical PC server installation.
You first install IBM&reg; i5/OS&trade; Integrated Server Support, then install Microsoft Windows.
You enter much of the configuration information with the i5/OS Install Windows
server (INSWNTSVR) command, so some of the typical installation panels do
not appear. This command also includes some additional parameters that are
specific to integrating the server with i5/OS, such as synchronize date and time.</li>
<li>On the i5/OS side of server management, an integrated Windows server is represented
by a network server description (NWSD), and network interfaces are represented
by line descriptions. You can stop and restart the server from i5/OS by varying
the NWSD off and on.</li>
<li>You can do a lot of your user administration tasks from i5/OS, such as creating
Windows users.</li>
<li><img src="delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />Because i5/OS manages storage differently than a PC server (see <a href="rzahqstormgtconcept.htm#rzahqstormgtconcept">i5/OS storage management</a>), some techniques necessary to administer storage
on a PC server are unnecessary for integrated servers.<img src="deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></li></ul>
