Efficient planning for Server installation


Server installation is the deployment of server hardware and getting the suitable operating system on that hardware. Specifically, a clean installation needs deleting the previous operating system completely. A system administrator must make several important decisions to ensure that the server installation will meet the needs of the company. 

Planning for a server installation is so important as planning will determine how successful the installation is because most of these decisions cannot be changed once the installation is completed. Before beginning the actual installation a Server software,  we must make several decisions about the prerequisite tasks. 


They are Minimum Hardware Requirements, Choosing the Appropriate software Edition, Choosing a New Installation or an Upgrade, Selecting Type of Server to Install, Early preparation of Configuration Information and Backing Up Files. We should select the desired software edition for our organizations. The advantage of new server installation is that by installing the operating system from scratch we are starting with a good new server and also we can avoid migrating problems due to incorrect configuration settings, corrupt software,  or improperly installed applications. Once we install the server OS, we have to configure the core settings needed for server operation.Efficient planning will give a good, effective, fast, easy and successful server software installation.
