operating system documentation provided with the server.
For complete hardware installation information, refer to the server documentation.

Certificate of Authenticity

IMPORTANT: Note where the Certificate of Authenticity (COA) label is located on the server
and record the product key for future reference.
The COA label is used to:
Complete the installation of the factory-installed operating system
Upgrade the factory-installed operating system using the Microsoft Upgrade
program for license validation
Reinstall the operating system because of a failure that has permanently
disabled it
The COA label location varies by server model. On rack-mounted server models, the
COA label is located either on the front section of the right panel or on the right front
corner of the top panel. On tower models, the COA label is located toward the rear of
the top panel of the server. The 25-character product key located on the COA label is
required to complete the installation of the operating system and reinstall the
operating system at any time in the future.
