Caution
Before the installation, be aware that the process erases the server hard drive and all data and

this process, unless instructed. Any unexpected power interruption during the installation process may
prevent proper completion of the configuration and may prevent the operating system from restarting.
Before you connect your server to the network, install the latest operating system upgrade and apply the
appropriate Microsoft hotfixes.
