Setup 40
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.
•
Unplug the power cord from the power supply to disconnect power to the equipment.
•
Do not route the power cord where it can be walked on or pinched by items placed against it.
Pay particular attention to the plug, electrical outlet, and the point where the cord extends from
the server.
Installing the operating system
This HP 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. For the latest information on
operating system support, see the HP website (
http://www.hp.com/go/supportos
).
To install an operating system on the server, use one of the following methods:
•
Intelligent Provisioning—The iLO Management Engine is a new feature on ProLiant servers that contains
Intelligent Provisioning for embedded deployment, updating, and provisioning capabilities. Intelligent
Provisioning can configure the server and install an operating system, eliminating the need for
SmartStart CDs and Smart Update Firmware DVDs.
To install an operating system on the server with Intelligent Provisioning (local or remote):
a.
Connect the Ethernet cable between the network connector on the server and a network jack.
b.
Press the Power On/Standby button.
c.
During server POST, press the
F10
key.
d.
Complete the initial Preferences and Registration portion of Intelligent Provisioning (on page
101
).
e.
At the 1 Start screen, click the
Configure and Install
button.
f.
To finish the installation, follow the onscreen prompts. An Internet connection is required to update
the firmware and systems software.
•
Remote deployment installation—To remotely deploy an operating system, use Insight Control server
deployment for an automated solution.
For additional system software and firmware updates, download the HP Service Pack for ProLiant from the HP
website (
http://www.hp.com/go/spp/download
). Software and firmware must be updated before using
the server for the first time, unless any installed software or components require an older version. For more
information, see "Keeping the system current (on page
108
)."
For more information on using these installation methods, see the HP website (
http://www.hp.com/go/ilo
).
