How to install HPE ProLiant ML110 G9

• Prepare and position the server: Unpack the ML110 G9 in a clean environment. If deploying in a rack, ensure you have appropriate rails or mounting hardware for a 4.5U chassis. Place the server on a sturdy surface or install it in its rack position according to your facility’s guidelines.
• Install memory and verify seating: Open the access panel as required, install the DDR4 memory modules in the designated slots, and ensure each module is fully seated with a firm click. Use the supported memory configuration to maximize capacity up to 256 GB if desired.
• Install drives (if applicable): Insert your 4 x LFF drives into the bays, securing each drive caddy as directed by the chassis. Attach any required data cables to the Serial ATA/600 controller and verify drive detection in the BIOS or RAID configuration utility.
• Power and initial boot: Connect the 350 W power supply to a suitable power source and attach networking cables. Power on the server and press the appropriate key to enter the BIOS/System Setup (commonly F9 or similar) to configure date, time, boot order, and basic server settings.
• Configure storage and operating system: Use the BIOS or RAID management utility to set up your preferred RAID level (0, 1, 5, or 10) for data protection and performance. Install or deploy your operating system and any required drivers, management agents, or monitoring software to ensure optimal performance and remote management capabilities.
• Firmware, drivers, and updates: After the OS is installed, connect the server to the internet or a trusted update source to apply the latest firmware and driver updates. This helps with stability, security, and compatibility with new software releases.
• Post-install validation: Validate network connectivity, storage health, and basic performance benchmarks. Configure any enterprise features you rely on, such as backup software, virtualization hosts, or monitoring dashboards, to ensure the environment is ready for production workloads.
