The HP E5000 Messaging System for Microsoft
Exchange is the general name for several E5x00
hardware-software solutions for Microsoft Exchange.
Each messaging system features HP server blades and
dense disk storage combined in a single 3U chassis, as
shown in Figure 1 (page 1), and Microsoft Exchange
setup utilities. The Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2
Enterprise Edition SP1 operating system is preinstalled
and activated on all systems.

The instructions in this quick start guide apply to all
messaging system models unless otherwise noted.
See Figure 2 (page 1) to locate components referenced
elsewhere in this guide.

7. HP 2-port Ethernet I/O module. These modules (2) connect to
the NIC located on top of the Mezzanine card on each server
blade. They are standard on the E5500 and E5700 systems and
optional on the E5300 system.
8. Management port for iLO and Enclosure Manager Unit (EMU)
Rack the messaging system hardware
WARNING! The messaging system is heavy.
Always use at least two people to move the
storage system into the rack.
1. If you ordered the messaging system without the
rack, install the rail kit and messaging system
chassis by following the HP StorageWorks 3U
Storage System Rail Kit Installation Instructions,
packaged with the rail kit.
2. Install any expansion disk enclosures.
a. Add expansion disk enclosures to the rack by
following the HP StorageWorks 2U Storage
System Rail Kit Installation Instructions,
packaged with the rail kit.
b. Cable the expansion disk enclosures to the
messaging system chassis. For recommended
cabling, see the HP E5000 Messaging System
for Microsoft Exchange Administrator Guide.
IMPORTANT: Ensure that cabling in the
back of the rack does not interfere with
system operation or maintenance. Bind
cables loosely with cable ties and route
excess cable out of the way, along the side
of the rack.
3. Ensure that the disk drives are fully seated in the
disk drive drawer and expansion disk enclosures.
To verify the lever is fully latched, pull on the lever
but do not press the release button. If any lever
appears to be loose, press the lever until it clicks.
4. Connect the messaging system power cords to the
rack power supply using standard procedures.
Connect the messaging system network
cables
The EMU provides connections to two types of
management processors:
• EMU processor
• iLO processor for each server blade
To simplify initial setup, the EMU and iLO processors
are configured for static addressing as follows:
• EMU: 10.0.0.10
• Server 1 iLO: 10.0.0.11
• Server 2 iLO: 10.0.0.12
• Subnet: 255.255.255.0
Figure 3 (page 1) identifies the network ports on the
rear of the messaging system.

By default, the HP E5000 Configuration Wizard sets up
the Client/MAPI and Replication networks as follows:
• Client/MAPI network
Server 1/Port 1 and Server 2/Port 2 network
ports connect to this network.
◦
◦ This network is labeled as the MAPI network on
each server.
◦ The default setting is static, but you can use the
Configuration Wizard to configure DHCP
addressing.
• Replication network
Server 1/Port 2 and Server 2/Port 1 network
ports connect to the replication network.
◦
◦ The Configuration Wizard automatically sets
these static addresses by default (but also allows
you to change them):
– Server 1: 10.0.0.1
– Server 2: 10.0.0.2
NOTE: If connecting to a switch, the
Network configuration will need to change
to be compatible with the network settings.
Use one of the Ethernet cables shipped with the
E5000 system to connect the Replication network
ports, see Figure 4 (page 2) or Figure 5 (page
2).
Figure 4 (page 2) shows the recommended E5300
Messaging System network configuration expected by
the E5000 Configuration Wizard.
