You have invested 300 kEUR to new Linux servers and willing to set them up quickly? Here's a practical guide how you do it and enter production in no-time!

First step is to unload the cartoon boxes from the truck. There are plenty of them so take your time.

Open the cartoon boxes and take out the server components. You will probably have some hundred boxes to open so this step will take a while.

Mount the servers to the racks and connect the cables. Since you'll have approximately one hundred screws to tighten and uncounted number of cables to plug in this phase is a pure fun!

The job is now almost done! Just boot the servers up and you are ready to enter the production!
