Bios Update; Easy Set-Up Cd Instruction - HP ProLiant DL170e G6 Software Configuration Manual

It is recommended that you do not install any third party adapter until you verify that the HP
equipment is functioning properly and you complete the OS installation.
Your ProLiant server comes with new hard disk drive(s) that do not need specific setup. However, if
you install additional used hard disk drives in your new server:
•
Note that most OS installations remove all data from the hard disk on which they are installed. If
you want to use additional hard disk drives to access existing data in the new server, HP
recommends that you install and configure any of these hard drives after completing the OS
installation.
•
If you want to recycle used hard drives, use a utility such as fdisk to erase all data and partitions
from that particular hard drive.

BIOS update

HP recommends that you update the server BIOS with the latest system BIOS version to take
advantage of the most recent compatibility fixes. You can download the latest HP ProLiant DL170e
G6 server BIOS at www.hp.com.
