Installing the operating system
This server does not ship with provisioning media.

unsupported operating system can cause serious and unpredictable results.
To install an operating system, insert the operating system CD into a USB-attached DVD-ROM drive (user
provided) and reboot the node.
Software and firmware should be updated before using the node for the first time, unless any installed
software or components require an older version.
