I have a Proliant ML310e G8 V2 and I cannot work out how to rotate it so that it sits on a shelf horizontally so it uses up 4U rather than vertically taking up 8U.
Is this possible?

You can create custom genome for your server. Copy existing genome in to a new and swap width and height. You probably have to maintain two genomes - vertical and horizontal.

And don't forget to adjust mounting options e.g add "shelf" to mounting options. Not sure if this is covered in n video. Then add shelf/s to custom genomes
