HP ProLiant DL320 Generation 3 Server User Guide
Two methods are available to install an OS on the server:
•
SmartStart assisted installation—Insert the SmartStart CD into the CD-ROM
drive and reboot the server.
•
Manual installation—Insert the OS CD into the CD-ROM drive and reboot
the server. This process may require you to obtain additional drivers from the
HP website (http://www.hp.com/support).
Follow the on-screen instructions to begin the installation process.
For information on using these installation paths, refer to the SmartStart
installation poster in the HP ProLiant Essentials Foundation Pack, included with
the server.
Registering the server
To register a server, refer to the registration card in the HP ProLiant Essentials
Foundation Pack or the HP Registration website (http://register.hp.com).
NOTE: The SmartStart assisted installation is available only when a
PCI-based SCSI controller is installed. This feature is not available
when configuring drives with the embedded SATA controller.
NOTE: For SATA RAID configuration, a driver diskette must be
created.
