Server Installation and Configuration Services
ICD, an enterprise server parts and services company based in Cairo, Egypt, since 2005, provides Server Installation and Configuration Services.
End-to-end rack, stack, and configure services for enterprise server deployments.
ICD Professional delivers end-to-end server installation and configuration services for enterprise data center environments. From initial rack mounting through operating system deployment, network integration, and production handoff, our installation engineers ensure your new or refurbished server infrastructure is deployed correctly the first time with minimal disruption to existing operations.
Our installation team has deployed thousands of servers across Dell PowerEdge, HPE ProLiant, Lenovo ThinkSystem, Cisco UCS, and IBM platforms in facilities ranging from single-rack edge deployments to multi-row data center buildouts. Whether you are deploying one server or one hundred, ICD provides the same level of engineering rigor and documentation that enterprise environments demand.
Installation Service Scope
- Physical installation including unpacking, rack mounting with proper rail kits, cable management for power and network connectivity, and labeling per your data center standards
- Hardware configuration covering BIOS/UEFI settings, RAID array creation, iDRAC/iLO/XCC management interface setup, firmware updates to vendor-recommended levels, and hardware health verification
- Operating system deployment for Windows Server, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, VMware ESXi, Ubuntu Server, and other enterprise operating systems with driver installation and initial patching
- Network integration including IP addressing, VLAN configuration, bonding/teaming for redundancy, management network setup, and connectivity verification with your existing infrastructure
- Documentation and handoff providing a complete deployment record including hardware configuration, network topology, credentials, and test results delivered to your operations team
Installation Process
- Pre-Installation Planning: ICD engineers review your deployment requirements, rack layout, power capacity, cooling, and network availability. We identify any prerequisites that must be completed before the installation date.
- Hardware Preparation: Servers are unpacked, inspected, and pre-configured in our Cairo facility when possible. BIOS settings, firmware updates, and RAID configurations are applied before arriving at your site to minimize on-site time.
- On-Site Installation: Our engineers physically install the servers, complete cabling, verify power redundancy, and bring systems online. Each server is tested for hardware health, network connectivity, and management access before proceeding to the next unit.
- Commissioning and Handoff: Operating systems are deployed, initial configurations applied, and production readiness verified. Your team receives complete documentation and a walkthrough of the deployed infrastructure.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which operating systems can be deployed during the installation?
Engineers deploy Windows Server, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, VMware ESXi, Ubuntu and other enterprise operating systems, including driver installation and initial patching. Commissioning then applies initial configurations and verifies production readiness before your team receives documentation and a walkthrough of the deployed infrastructure.
Is hardware pre-configured before engineers arrive on site?
Yes, when possible, units are unpacked, inspected and pre-configured at the Cairo facility, with BIOS settings, firmware updates and RAID configurations applied before arrival to minimise on-site time. Each unit is then tested for hardware health, network connectivity and management access before the team moves to the next one.
Do engineers configure iDRAC, iLO and XCC management interfaces?
Yes, hardware configuration covers iDRAC, iLO and XCC management interface setup alongside BIOS/UEFI settings, RAID array creation, firmware updates to vendor-recommended levels and hardware health verification. Network integration adds IP addressing, VLAN configuration, bonding or teaming for redundancy and management network setup.
What documentation is handed over after the installation is complete?
You receive a complete deployment record covering hardware configuration, network topology, credentials and test results, delivered to your operations team. Equipment is also labelled to your data center standards, and installations run across Egypt, the GCC and the MENA region for projects of any scale.
