CAUTION: Use the SmartStart CD as recovery software only. Powering up the
server from the SmartStart CD reconfigures the system and causes all data on the
server to be lost.
If the server was ordered with the operating system factory installed, everything
required to install the operating system is already on the server. Refer to the steps
provided in the HP Factory-Installed Operating System Software User Guide for
more information on using the operating system.
To complete the installation process with a preconfigured operating system:
1. Power up the server. Refer to "Powering Up the Server" earlier in this chapter.

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.
Disconnect power from the server by unplugging the power cord from
either the electrical outlet or the server.
Do not place anything on power cords or cables. Arrange them so that no
one can accidentally step on or trip over them. Do not pull on a cord or
cable. When unplugging the cord from the electrical outlet, grasp the cord
by the plug.
