Chapter 3
Server Installation
This chapter provides a quick setup checklist to get the HPE Apollo kl20 server
operational.
Unpack the System
Inspect the shipping container used for the server and note if it was damaged in any way. If the
server shows damage, file a damage claim with the carrier who delivered it.
Decide on a suitable location for the rack that supports the weight, power requirements, and
environmental requirements of the server. It should be situated in a clean, dust-free environment
that is well ventilated. Avoid areas where heat, electrical noise, and electromagnetic fields are
generated. Place the server rack near a grounded power outlet. Refer to
“Warnings and
Precautions” on page 18
.
Prepare for Setup
The shipping container should include two sets of rail assemblies, two rail mounting brackets and
the mounting screws that you will use to install the system into a rack.
