Setup
Overview
Installing a server requires the following steps:
1.
Install the server into the rack (" Install the server " on page 14 ).
2.
Power up the server (" Powering up the server " on page 15 ).
3.
Configure the server (" Installing the operating system " on page 15 ).
Powering up the server
The rack initiates an automatic power-up sequence when the server is installed. If the default setting is
changed, use one of the following methods to power up the server:
•
Use a virtual power button selection through iLO.
•
Press and release the Power On/Standby button.
When the server goes from the standby mode to the full power mode, the system power LED changes
from amber to solid green. The health status LED light remains solid green when the Power On/Standby
Button service is being initialized. For more information about the system power LED status, see "Front
panel identification (on page 6 )."
For more information about iLO, see "HPE iLO (on page 17 )."
Powering on and selecting boot options in UEFI Boot Mode
On servers operating in UEFI Boot Mode, the boot controller and boot order are set automatically.
1.
Press the Power On/Standby button.
2.
During the initial boot, press the F9 key in the HPE ProLiant POST screen to enter the UEFI System
Utilities screen. By default, the System Utilities menus are in the English language.
For more information on automatic configuration, see the UEFI documentation on the Hewlett Packard
Enterprise website ( http://www.hpe.com/info/ProLiantUEFI/docs ).
Installing the operating system
To operate properly, the server must have a supported operating system installed. For the latest
information on operating system support, see the Hewlett Packard Enterprise website
( http://www.hpe.com/info/supportos ).
IMPORTANT: HPE ProLiant XL servers do not support operating system installation with
Intelligent Provisioning, but do support the maintenance features. For more information, see
the Performing Maintenance section of the HPE Intelligent Provisioning User Guide and online
help.
To install an operating system on the server, use one of the following methods:
•
Manual installation—Insert the operating system CD into the USB-attached DVD-ROM drive (user
provided) and reboot the node. You must download the Service Pack for ProLiant from the SPP
download site ( http://www.hpe.com/servers/spp/download ) and create SPP media so that you
can install the drivers.
