Verifying site preparation is essential for a successful server installation and includes the following tasks.
Step 1.
Gather LAN information and determine the two separate IP addresses for the Integrity iLO MP
LAN and the system LAN.
Step 2.
Establish a method to connect to the server console.
Step 3.
Verify electrical requirements and ensure that grounding specifications and power requirements
are met.
Step 4.
Validate server physical space requirements.
Step 5.
Confirm environmental requirements.
Inspecting the Shipping Containers for Damage
HP shipping containers protect their contents under normal shipping conditions. After the equipment arrives,
carefully inspect each carton for signs of shipping damage. Shipping damage constitutes moderate to severe
damage, such as punctures in the corrugated carton, crushed boxes, or large dents. Normal wear or slight
damage to the carton is not considered shipping damage. If you find shipping damage to the carton, contact
your HP customer service representative immediately.
