Overview 7
Overview
Introduction
IMPORTANT: If your server has a factory-installed operating system, do not boot from the HP
SmartStart CD when powering up the server for the first time. The SmartStart CD should only
be used if it is necessary to reinstall the operating system.
IMPORTANT: Complete the operating system installation before installing any additional
hardware options.
This guide provides instructions for installing the Microsoft® Windows® Small Business Server 2008
operating system.
Features
The operating system is preloaded on the server disk drive. Also, the latest drivers are downloaded onto
the server disk drive and integrated with the preloaded operating system.
Installing the preloaded operating system is quicker than for a server without a preloaded operating
system. The user-specific information such as the server name, IP address, and regional settings must be
entered during the installation process.
The HP factory-installed software for Microsoft® Windows® Small Business Server 2008 is:
•Ready to run—You are guided through a mini-setup wizard, after which any HP specific components
are installed and, when possible, configured. After any required restarts of the operating system, the
Microsoft® Windows® Small Business Server 2008 installation is complete and ready to perform
any necessary user configuration.
•Preconfigured with the networking protocols TCP/IP and the SNMP service—These services are
required for effective network management and enable the HP Management Agents for Servers to
communicate with HP SIM.
•Operating system activation—If this product was purchased directly from HP, it is pre-activated. If
this product was purchased from your local authorized reseller, you have 60-days from the
installation of the product to complete product activation online or by phone directly with
Microsoft®. Follow activation instructions upon installation of the operating system. In addition,
Microsoft® provides an extension of the 60-day activation period up to 240 days. For more
information, see the Microsoft® knowledge base article (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/948472).
•Capable of out-of-the-box management of the server with the installation of the HP Management
Agents for servers—The HP Management Agents monitor server performance and configuration and
operating system performance. The HP Management Agents help prevent problems by issuing alerts
when faults occur.
•Preconfigured with NTFS—Many new features in Microsoft® Windows® Small Business Server
2008 require NTFS, including the ability to promote the server to a domain controller to use

Overview 8
Microsoft® Active Directory, and NTFS offers greater security. Review the Microsoft® Windows®
Small Business Server 2008 software documentation to properly configure the server and to
understand how to use NTFS with Microsoft® Windows® Small Business Server 2008, while
concurrently using previous versions of Microsoft® Windows® NT in a network infrastructure.
For additional information about Microsoft® Windows® Small Business Server 2008, see the HP website
(http://h18000.www1.hp.com/products/servers/software/factory-installed.html) or the Microsoft®
website (http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserver2008).

Gathering information 9
Gathering information
Certificate of Authenticity
IMPORTANT: Note where the COA label is located on the server, and record the product key
for future reference.
The COA label is used to:
•Upgrade the factory-installed operating system using the Microsoft® Upgrade program for license
validation
•Reinstall the operating system because of a failure that has permanently disabled it
The COA label location varies by server model. On rack-mounted server models, the COA label is
located either on the front section of the right panel or on the right front corner of the top panel. On tower
models, the COA label is located toward the rear of the top panel of the server.
NOTE: The product key is not needed at the time of the initial operating system installation
because the server comes from the factory with a product key already installed.
Record the product key in the space provided when the server is initially installed and the COA label is
most easily accessible.

Installation 10
Installation
Before installing the operating system
IMPORTANT: Before powering up the server and configuring the operating system software,

volume page appears.

Post-installation tasks 18
IMPORTANT: The recovery password is required in the event the encrypted disk is moved to
another computer, or changes are made to the system startup information. This password is so
important that HP recommends that you make additional copies of the password and store it in
a safe place apart from the computer to assure access to your data. Your recovery password is
needed to unlock the encrypted data on the volume if BitLocker enters a locked state. This
recovery password is unique to this particular BitLocker encryption. You cannot use it to
recover encrypted data from any other BitLocker encryption session.
7. Confirm that the Run BitLocker System check box is selected, and then click Continue.
8. Click Restart Now. The computer restarts and BitLocker verifies if the computer is BitLocker-
compatible and ready for encryption. If it is not, an error message alerting you to the problem
appears.
9. If it is ready for encryption, the Encryption in Progress status bar appears. You can monitor the
ongoing completion status of the disk volume encryption by dragging your mouse cursor over the
BitLocker Drive Encryption icon in the notification area at the bottom of your screen.
By completing this procedure, you have encrypted the operating system volume and created a
recovery password unique to this volume. The next time you log in, you see no change. If the TPM
ever changes or cannot be accessed, if there are changes to key system files, or if someone tries to
start the computer from a product CD or DVD to circumvent the operating system, the computer
switches to recovery mode until the recovery password is supplied.
For more information regarding BitLocker, see the Microsoft® website
(http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/aa905065.aspx).
