2. Installing the rail kits and mounting the system in a rack
Important safety information
CAUTION:
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can damage the electronic components. Ensure that you are properly
grounded (earthed) before beginning any installation procedure.
Installation Guidelines
This installation must be performed by qualified individuals having knowledge of the procedures, precautions,
and equipment hazards that contains hazardous electrical circuits.
6 2. Installing the rail kits and mounting the system in a rack
Page 7
WARNING:
• The rail kits, when installed, form only a shelf for the StoreEasy 1X60 to rest on. The StoreEasy
1X60 is not attached to the rail by any other means. Use extreme caution when pulling the
StoreEasy 1X60 out from the rack. The storage system can slip and fall, which may cause damage
or injury to the StoreEasy 1X60 Storage. HPE is not responsible for any damage or injury caused by
mishandling of StoreEasy 1X60.
• Ensure that the rack is leveled and stable before working on the rack. The leveling jacks (feet) must
extend to the floor and the full weight of the rack must rest firmly on the floor.
• Ensure that the rack has anti-tip measures such as, floor-bolting, anti-tip feet, ballast, or a
combination of the measures, as specified by the rack manufacturer and applicable codes in place.
• Ensure that sufficient personnel are available to support one or more products during the installation
process. HPE recommends you to use an appropriate lifting device as an installation aid.
• Ensure that the rack is loaded from bottom to top, with the heaviest appliances at the bottom to make
the rack steady.
• Avoid overloading the branch circuit that provides power to the rack. The total rack load must not
exceed 80 percent of the branch circuit rating.
Installation
1. Install the rail kits.
For detailed instructions on installing the HPE rack rails into square and round hole racks for HPE 2U
Storage system, refer HPE Rack Rail Kit installation instructions document, that is part of the shipped rail
kit.
2. Slide the StoreEasy 1X60 into the position on the rails as shown in Figure 1.

5. Using the holes provided in the rear rack rails, install the tie wraps and route external cables as required
as shown in Figure 4.

6. Connect all power cords to the facility power source.
3. Cabling the StoreEasy system to the network
The iLO network port is used to remotely manage the StoreEasy 1X60 hardware and allows administrators to
launch a remote console session to the system. HPE recommends that you connect the iLO port to your
management network. The iLO port is preconfigured to obtain an IP address through DHCP. If your
environment does not support DHCP, use a KVM and configure iLO to use a static IP address. For
instructions, see HPE StoreEasy 1X60 Storage System Administrator Guide available at
https://support.hpe.com/hpesc/public/home/documentHome?sp4ts.oid=1008632547.
The 4 x 1GbE network ports are used for the storage network and to connect the system to infrastructure
services such as, Active Directory, DNS, NTP, etc. The ports can be configured as segregated network ports
or a network team. Ensure that your switch is prepared for either configuration.

IMPORTANT:
If the StoreEasy 1X60 Storage system is attached to an external storage, including JBODs, power on
the external storage system before you power on the StoreEasy 1X60 Storage system.
5. Power On Initial Startup Sequence
Before using the HPE StoreEasy Management Console (SEMC) as the primary management tool, complete
the initial startup sequence. You can complete the initial startup sequence by connecting to the StoreEasy
1X60 using a KVM to configure a static IP or to gather the DHCP address from the boot screen.
Alternatively, you can complete the initial startup sequence by connecting to the StoreEasy 1X60 using iLO
Integrated Remote Console (IRC) remotely. If the iLO port is connected to a network segment with DHCP
enabled and automatic DNS registration, use the DNS name. The DNS name, iLO initial login, and iLO initial
password are available on the information tag attached to the front of the system on the right-hand side.
For more information on DHCP configuration and DNS registration, see HPE StoreEasy 1X60 Storage
System Administrator Guide available at
https://support.hpe.com/hpesc/public/home/documentHome?sp4ts.oid=1008632547.
Once StoreEasy 1X60 is booted, the language selection screen is displayed.
NOTE:
If the language selection screen does not display, contact Hewlett Packard Enterprise support center (https://
www.hpe.com/us/en/contact-hpe.html).
Follow the instructions of the on-screen wizard and:
12 5. Power On Initial Startup Sequence

1. Select your preferred language.
2. Read and accept the license terms.
3. Set the local Administrator password.
Once these steps are complete, log in with the previously set administrator credentials. A post-installation
process automatically starts and takes approximately 10-15 minutes. The system reboots at the end of the
post installation.
4. After the reboot, log in with the Administrator account and password set in Step 3.
The system launches the Initial Configuration Tasks (ICT) application.

Page 14
Figure 9: Initial Configuration Tasks
If ICT does not launch automatically, press Windows + R on your keyboard, type OEMOOBE and click OK.
Next Steps
You can perform the following tasks using the ICT:
• Update the system settings such as, changing the local Administrator password and time zone.
• Launch the Network Configuration wizard to configure and validate the network configuration, configure
email alerts, and register the product.
• Create Storage Pools and Virtual Disks.
• Enable software updates and enhancements directly from Windows Update.
• Set up optional data protection solutions on StoreEasy 1X60 with cloud-based data backup, by replicating
data using Carbonite Double-Take Availability. The data protection solutions require separate licensing.
You can also use a free trial license for a limited time.
• Download the HPE StoreEasy Management Console (SEMC) to provision storage, file shares, and quotas
more easily.
For further instructions on using the Initial Configuration Tasks, for additional configuration, and setup
information, see HPE StoreEasy 1X60 Administrator Guide available at
https://support.hpe.com/hpesc/public/home/documentHome?sp4ts.oid=1008632547.
