Initial Setup

See the Getting Started Guide and Rack Installation Guide for more information.
2 Connect power to the power supplies.
NOTE:
Ethernet switch modules are installed. The Ethernet switch may take longer to boot than the server
modules, which may cause functions like PXE to fail due to the Ethernet switch not being fully
booted and ready to send packets.
