When multiple hook-and-loop straps are used in the same rack, stagger the strap location, so that the
straps are adjacent to each other when viewed from top to bottom. This positioning will enable the rack rail
to slide easily in and out of the rack.
Installing the operating system
This ProLiant server does not ship with provisioning media. Everything needed to manage and install the
system software and firmware is preloaded on the server.
To operate properly, the server must have a supported operating system. Attempting to run an unsupported
operating system can cause serious and unpredictable results. For the latest information on operating system
support, see the
Hewlett Packard Enterprise website
.
Failure to observe UEFI requirements for ProLiant Gen9 servers can result in errors installing the operating
system, failure to recognize boot media, and other boot failures. For more information on these requirements,
