System Configuration IBM x-series 220 server

9.1 GB x2 Ultra wide scsi HDD, ADPT160M Controller for HDD
ide cdrom , On baord network adapter

I am faceing problem to config SFT-3

After installing stand lone server properly, transforred data from old server to new server
Reboot server 2 /3 time, server mount properly and also connect with client computer through
remote boot.

After this convert server to SFT3 and create three floppies, load msl driver, it showed wait for second machine

Shifted to secondary server run install through first floppy insert second and third floppy asked msl driver know both server is connected throuth msl card. Load hdd, lan and msl driver at both console and ip route is up.
create msauto.ncf, msstart, ioauto, iostart down the server
run mserver at both server
activate server at primary server it ask msengine name and ipx internal no. after type name and no. It doesnot load hdd controller driver and not connect to secondary server
when load manualy hdd and lan driver it load . But it not mount vol sys and also not mount any volume
and give error message :

"Definition for syne 0 of volume sys removed.
server 4.11-208 definition for volume sys is invalid
server 4.11-1649 volume sys could not be mounted
some or all volume segment connot be loaded."

(I create dos and netware partition same to same )

When run server.exe command at primary server it works properly and mount sys and all volume
