How to install HPE ProLiant ML350 Gen11 4U Tower Server

• Prepare your environment: Choose a stable, well-ventilated area with adequate airflow. Ensure a clean, grounded workspace and a reliable power source. If mounting in a rack, have the appropriate rails and hardware ready and verify compatibility with your rack system.
• Unbox and assemble: Inspect components for transit damage. If you are mounting in a rack, install the rack rails according to the manufacturer’s instructions and slide the ML350 Gen11 into position. Connect the power cords and network interfaces, labeling management, iLO, and data networks as needed.
• Configure storage and RAID: Power on and enter the system BIOS/RAID controller utility. Configure the SAS/SATA drives and establish the desired RAID level to protect data and optimize performance. Confirm boot drives and ensure drive health before proceeding.
• Set up remote management and firmware: Access iLO for remote provisioning, credential setup, and initial health monitoring. Update firmware to the latest recommended versions for the motherboard, RAID controller, and iLO. Enable security features and set up baseline monitoring and alerting.
• Install operating system and drivers: Load your chosen OS (for example, Windows Server, Linux distributions, or virtualization platforms such as VMware ESXi). Install essential drivers, management agents, and integration tools. Apply latest patches and security fixes, configure networking, and verify system performance with a baseline workload.
• Finalize deployment and test: Create backup plans and recovery procedures, implement monitoring dashboards, and perform routine reliability tests. Validate performance under typical workloads, confirm remote access works as intended, and document configuration details for future maintenance.
