Imagine you have just walked into your office and you have a couple of new HPE ProLiant Gen10 servers ready to be setup and configured.  These servers need to be productive right away.  Piece of cake right because you now have the HPE Rapid Setup Software that comes standard on all new HPE ProLiant Gen10 solution models.

Before HPE Rapid Setup Software, setting up a new server was time consuming and tedious. You had to prepare your image, configure the BIOS settings, and then load the operating system or hypervisor, with multiple power cycles to wait through along the way.

And then hair tearing might occur or something worse depending on your day.  You wanted something fool proof and fast – something automated.
