The loss of a single fan rotor (one standard fan) causes loss of redundancy. The loss of two fan rotors (2 standard fans or 1 high-performance fan) causes the server to initiate a shut down. The high-performance fans are used for 8-SFF +2SFF NVMe and 10 SFF drive configurations when NVMe drives are installed in the server.
Operations Powering up the server To power up the server, press the Power On/Standby button. Power down the server Before powering down the server for any upgrade or maintenance procedures, perform a backup of critical server data and programs. IMPORTANT: When the server is in standby mode, auxiliary power is still being provided to the system.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury, be careful when pressing the server rail-release latches and sliding the server into the rack. The sliding rails could pinch your fingers. 5. After performing the installation or maintenance procedure, slide the server into the rack: a.
Remove the hot-plug fan Procedure 1. Observe the following alert: IMPORTANT: After removing a high-performance (dual-rotor) fan, install or replace the fan within 60 seconds. Otherwise, the server will shut down gracefully. 2. Do one of the following: a. Extend the server from the rack (Extend the server from the rack on page 24). b.
CAUTION: Do not operate the server for long periods with the access panel open or removed. Operating the server in this manner results in improper airflow and improper cooling that can lead to thermal damage. IMPORTANT: For optimum cooling, install fans in all primary fan locations. To replace the component, reverse the removal procedure.
2. Install the access panel (Installing the access panel on page 25). 3. Install the server into the rack (Installing the server into the rack on page 36). 4. Connect each power cord to the server. 5. Connect each power cord to the power source. 6.
2. If needed, install expansion boards (Installing an expansion board in the secondary riser cage on page 78). 3. Install the access panel (Installing the access panel on page 25). 4. Install the server into the rack (Installing the server into the rack on page 36). 5.
Setup Optional services Delivered by experienced, certified engineers, HPE support services help you keep your servers up and running with support packages tailored specifically for HPE ProLiant systems. HPE support services let you integrate both hardware and software support into a single package. A number of service level options are available to meet your business and IT needs.
CAUTION: Always use blanking panels to fill empty vertical spaces in the rack. This arrangement ensures proper airflow. Using a rack without blanking panels results in improper cooling that can lead to thermal damage. The 9000 and 10000 Series Racks provide proper server cooling from flow-through perforations in the front and rear doors that provide 64 percent open area for ventilation.
CAUTION: Protect the server from power fluctuations and temporary interruptions with a regulating uninterruptible power supply. This device protects the hardware from damage caused by power surges and voltage spikes and keeps the system in operation during a power failure. Electrical grounding requirements The server must be grounded properly for proper operation and safety.
CAUTION: If the DC connection exists between the earthed conductor of the DC supply circuit and the earthing conductor at the server equipment, the following conditions must be met: • This equipment must be connected directly to the DC supply system earthing electrode conductor or to a bonding jumper from an earthing terminal bar or bus to which the DC supply system earthing electrode conductor is connected.
Identifying the contents of the server shipping carton Unpack the server shipping carton and locate the materials and documentation necessary for installing the server. All the rack mounting hardware necessary for installing the server into the rack is included with the rack or the server.

HPE Trusted Platform Module 2.0 Gen10 Option Overview Use these instructions to install and enable an HPE TPM 2.0 Gen10 Kit in a supported server. This option is not supported on Gen9 and earlier servers. This procedure includes three sections:...
TPM including keys will be erased. IMPORTANT: In UEFI Boot Mode, the HPE TPM 2.0 Gen10 Kit can be configured to operate as TPM 2.0 (default) or TPM 1.2 on a supported server. In Legacy Boot Mode, the configuration can be changed between TPM 1.2 and TPM 2.0, but only TPM 1.2 operation is supported.
Disabling Chipset-TPM CAUTION: Chipset-TPM is not available after power is removed from the system and the HPE TPM 2.0 Gen10 Kit is installed. Do not install the HPE TPM 2.0 Gen10 Kit if Chipset-TPM is enabled and the operating system is using Chipset-TPM features. Otherwise, the OS may go into recovery mode, data loss can occur, or both.

For specific information about automating tasks using the iLO RESTful API, see libraries and sample code at http://www.hpe.com/info/redfish.
RESTful Interface Tool The RESTful Interface Tool (iLOrest) is a scripting tool that allows you to automate HPE server management tasks. It provides a set of simplified commands that take advantage of the iLO RESTful API. You can install the tool on your computer for remote use or install it locally on a server with a Windows or Linux Operating System.
Management Security HPE ProLiant Gen10 servers are built with some of the industry's most advanced security capabilities, out of the box, with a foundation of secure embedded management applications and firmware. The management security provided by HPE embedded management products enables secure support of modern workloads, protecting your components from unauthorized access and unapproved use.
Operating systems must support Secure Boot and have an EFI boot loader signed with one of the authorized keys to boot. For more information about supported operating systems, see the UEFI System Utilities and Shell Release Notes for Gen10 and HPE Synergy on the Hewlett Packard Enterprise website (http://www.hpe.com/info/ProLiantUEFI/docs.).
HPE Smart Storage Administrator HPE SSA is the main tool for configuring arrays on HPE Smart Array SR controllers. It exists in three interface formats: the HPE SSA GUI, the HPE SSA CLI, and HPE SSA Scripting. All formats provide support for configuration tasks.
Array controllers and integrated Smart Array controllers. Some HPE SSA features are only available in the offline environment, such as setting the boot controller and boot volume. • Accessing HPE SSA in the online environment This method requires an administrator to download the HPE SSA executables and install them. You can run HPE SSA online after launching the host operating system.
