Install the enclosure in the rack
Install a half-width I/O module to Fabric C in the enclosure
Install a full-width I/O module to Fabrics A and/or B in the enclosure
Install a Management Module in the enclosure
Install a single-width compute sled in the enclosure
Install a double-width compute sled in the enclosure
Install a single-width storage sled in the enclosure
Connect the cables to the enclosure
Power on the enclosure and then the sled(s)

Setting up a Management Module
When the chassis is powered on for the first time the IP address can be viewed or changed with the KVM, (optional) LCD or (optional) OpenManage Mobile app. By default, the network port on the Management Module is enabled and set to DHCP. To configure additional network settings such as hostname and DNS:

Open a browser and enter the IP address obtained from the above and login with the credentials provided on the pull-out tag.
Follow the Chassis Deployment Wizard that appears on the first login. (Or) Select the Settings tab on the home page for more options.
