Citrix XenServer from HP
Getting Started Guide
Overview
This guide outlines the basic setup, installation, and configuration steps required to
begin using your Citrix XenServer from HP. A first time wizard-based setup guides you
through initial installation and configuration, and a GUI provides ongoing virtual
machine monitoring and management.
To provide active hardware management using HP Systems Insight Manager (SIM), HP
SIM Agents are installed with Citrix XenServer. These agents proactively surface
hardware monitoring data to provide the most up-to-date server state information
possible.
The Citrix XenServer from HP Getting Started Guide is for Citrix XenServer; HP Select
Edition, Citrix Essentials for XenServer, HP Enterprise Edition; or Citrix Essentials for
XenServer, HP Platinum Edition. The accompanying ISO installs Citrix XenServer. The
ISO includes a license for Citrix XenServer, HP Select Edition and a 90 day trial
license for PVC. Licenses for XenServer, HP Select Edition; Essentials for XenServer, HP
Enterprise Edition; and Citrix Essentials for XenServer, HP Platinum Edition are
purchased separately.
Citrix XenServer, HP Select Edition license offers a low cost, all-in-one solution with
Citrix XenServer from HP, HP PVC for single server management, and XenCenter for
virtual machine management across multiple servers. HP PVC enables simplified
creation and management of the local virtualization environment and the virtual
machines. Citrix XenServer enables the creation of an unlimited number of virtual
machines per server with up to 64-bit MB memory and eight virtual CPUs per VM.
Essentials for XenServer, HP Enterprise Edition license enables all of the features of
XenServer and adds historical performance reporting, high availability, and work flow
orchestration. Essentials for XenServer, HP Enterprise Edition includes HP PVC for
single server management and XenCenter for virtual machine management across
multiple servers.
Essentials for XenServer, HP Platinum Edition license includes everything available with
Essentials for XenServer, HP Enterprise Edition and adds Citrix provisioning server and
Automated Lab Management.

XenServer:
•Any HP supported hard drive
•Secure Digital (SD) memory card

(http://software.hp.com/ ), and then select Virtualization.
3. Burn the installation ISO to a CD-ROM, or move the ISO image to a location
accessible using the Virtual Media capabilities of iLO 2.
NOTE: The CD-ROM is bootable. Boot the server and choose to
install the Citrix XenServer from HP product either to the hard
drive or to flash media (USB key or SD card). The flash media
must be installed into the internal port on your ProLiant server.
4. Set up the server hardware, and if desired, connect your server to the network. If
installing to flash media (USB or SD Card), you must install the flash media into
the internal port on your ProLiant server.
For specific instructions on how to access the internal flash media (USB or SD
card) port, see the server documentation included with your server.
NOTE: The server must have access to either locally attached disk
storage or a supported shared storage device. For advanced
storage configurations, see the documentation for the remote
storage devices and the storage chapter in the Citrix XenServer
Reference Manual.
For hardware information, see the server documentation included with your
server.
5. Access the server console in one of the following ways:
oLocally—Use your local keyboard and monitor.
oRemotely—Use iLO Integrated Remote Console remotely from a network
client using a web browser.
Remote setup requires HP iLO 2 Advanced Pack, which is sold separately for
HP ProLiant ML and DL servers. The remote graphics capability is included
with BL servers.
IMPORTANT: After you boot up the server, you must press the
correct function key when prompted to enter setup mode to
configure boot order, configure hardware virtualization, and
configure iLO and the Smart Array controller. Familiarize yourself
with the following steps and prompts. Each prompt is available
for only a few seconds during the boot process.
If you are installing to the hard drive, proceed to step 8.
6. To enable flash media (USB flash drive or SD card):

press F9.
b. Scroll down to Advanced Options, and then press Enter.
c. Scroll down to Processor Options, and then press Enter.
d. Scroll down to the servers supported processor (either Intel® Virtualization
Technology or AMD® Virtualization), and then press Enter.
