Installation Sequence
CAUTION:
If your server has a factory-installed operating system, configure it
using the instructions in the following section. Otherwise, follow the instructions
in the “Operating System Purchased Separately” section later in this chapter.
Preconfigured Operating System
If you ordered your server with the factory-installed operating system,
everything required to install your operating system is already on the server.
Refer to the steps provided in the
Compaq Factory-Installed Operating System
Software User Guide
.
CAUTION:
Use the SmartStart and Support Software CD as recovery software
only. Starting the server from the SmartStart and Support Software CD
reconfigures the system and causes all data on the server to be lost.
To install your server:
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to the equipment
■
Do not disable the power cord grounding plug. The grounding plug is an
important safety feature.
■
Plug the power cord into a grounded (earthed) electrical outlet that is
easily accessible at all times.
■
Disconnect power from the server by unplugging the power cord from
either the electrical outlet or the server.
■
Do not place anything on power cords or cables. Arrange them so that no
one may accidentally step on or trip over them. Do not pull on a cord or
cable. When unplugging from the electrical outlet, grasp the cord by
the plug.
