Setup 40
IMPORTANT: When using cable management arm components, be sure to leave enough
slack in each of the cables to prevent damage to the cables when the server is extended from
the rack.
6. Connect the power cord to the AC power source.
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
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 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
(http://www.hpe.com/info/supportos).
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, see the HPE UEFI Requirements on the Hewlett Packard Enterprise website
(http://www.hpe.com/info/ProLiantUEFI/docs).
To install an operating system on the server, use one of the following methods:
• Intelligent Provisioning—For single-server deployment, updating, and provisioning capabilities.
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.
