The server is now ready to be installed from your local ISO file and can powered on through the Server Information -> Power -> Control menu. " button and check the Box next to "Mapped".

To install the ESX server you have to launch the KVM und Remote Media application, mount the ISO file through the “Add Image. Additionally it comes with a KVM and remote media Java application. The RAC enables the server to be powered on and off remotely. The IP address of the RAC is configured though a DHCP Server and you can access it either with HTTP or HTTPS. I installed 8 GB of RAM, the Remote Access Card and an additional Quad-Port Network adapter. To remove the mainboard you have to undo the two thumbscrews at the front, unplug all cables and pull it out of the case. Prior to assemble the memory or expansion cards, the mainboard has to be completely removed. Except for the rear cover all external parts are made of plastic, but the quality is very high. There are no additional tools or screws required, because everything is attached inside the case. The front is secured with a lockable door which covers the disks and the motherboard. The server is very handy and fits easily on or below my desk. The server is shipped in a handy little box, together with a power cable, safety instructions, and a CD with links to documentation. I think HP has just skipped the expensive VMware testing procedure, which is reflected in the low price of the unit. But as a home lab, or a small home server it should be fine. To clarify, the system is not listed in the VMware HCL, so do not attempt to use this System in a productive environment. Therefore it should be compatible to VMware ESX. The server has hardware support for virtualization and a 64-bit CPU. Ports: VGA, eSATA, 7x USB 2.0 (4x Front, 2x Back, 1x On-Board).Hard Disk: 1x Seagate Barracude (250GB, 7200RPM, SATA).Prozessor: AMD Turion™ II Neo N40L (2x 1,50GHz).The Server is shipped with the following configuration: The good news is that the server is shipped with 4 hard drive trays, which allows the installation of any SATA hard drive. I decided not to buy a RAID controller, because I want to store my VMs on an shared Storage. If you want to use the local disks as an array, you have to buy an additional RAID controller. The server does only have a software-based RAID controller which will not work with the ESX. Although this is quite low for a hypervisor, it should be sufficient for a pure test environment. The HP N40L has 2 CPU cores and supports up to 8GB of RAM. An optional Remote Access Card (RAC) can extend ILO similar functions to the server. Not only due to its price of approximately 200 euros, but also because of its low power consumption it is an great candidate for a virtualization home lab.

Hewlett Packard has launched an extremely affordable server for SMB and home users.
