Unpack the materials

Before installing the server, verify that all of the necessary components required for installation are on-site. You require the following components:

•USB keyboard, mouse, and monitor, or a keyboard, video and mouse (KVM) unit

The number of servers and software packages received varies depending on the type of system configuration you install (simplex or redundant).

In addition, ensure there are an adequate number of properly grounded electrical outlets for the server, monitor, and other devices.
