Preparing the server for installation
Procedure
1. Observe the following warnings:
WARNING: The front panel Power On/Standby button does not shut off system power. Portions of the power
supply and some internal circuitry remain active until AC power is removed.
To reduce the risk of personal injury, electric shock, or damage to the equipment, remove power from the server:
•
For rack and tower servers, remove the power cord.
•
For server blades and compute modules, remove the server blade or compute module from the chassis.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the drives and the internal system
components to cool before touching them.
2. Update the system ROM.
Locate and download the latest ROM version from the Hewlett Packard Enterprise Support Center website (https://
