EnRHEd Erasmus Plus Project
EnRHEd (Enhancement of Rwandan Higher Education in Strategic Fields for Sustainable Growth) is an Erasmus Plus project implemented at UTAB (University of Technology, and Arts of Byumba) in Rwanda. The EnRHEd project aims to enhance and strengthen higher education in strategic fields for sustainable growth in Rwanda.
One of the key focuses of the EnRHEd project is to provide support in the form of digital equipment and e-learning training to UTAB. By equipping the university with modern digital tools and resources, the project aims to enhance the learning experience for students and promote the integration of technology into the education system.
Furthermore, the EnRHEd project facilitates international academic exchange programs for UTAB. This initiative allows students and faculty members to engage in knowledge-sharing, research collaborations, and cultural exchanges with international partner institutions. Such academic exchanges broaden the horizons of both students and faculty, fostering a global perspective and enriching the learning environment at UTAB.
Through its various activities, the EnRHEd project plays a significant role in advancing higher education in Rwanda. By providing support in digital equipment, e-learning training, and facilitating international academic exchanges, the project contributes to the overall growth and development of UTAB and helps prepare students for the demands of a rapidly evolving global landscape.

This report is to provide information on computer server HPE ProLiant gen10. By now UTAB is using this computer server with Ubuntu operating system installed running on it and it helps this institution to host library management system online catalog (KOHA) and it’s now accessible where students can use it to borrow books from the library and check whether that book is available or not
The detail of the computer server mentioned above are;
1. 2TB storage capacity
2. 8GB RAM
3. UBUNTU Operating system is installed on it
4. HPE Ethernet 1Gb 2-port 332T Adapter
5. Processor: Intel® Xeon® E Processor is designed to deliver the best combination of
performance, built-in capabilities, and cost-effectiveness. This product also supports
Intel® Pentium® processors. Xeon E-2224=3.4 GHz, Pentium G5420=3.8 GHz
Since we received this server the following activities done on it;
6. Ubuntu operating system installed on it successfully and we using it now
7. Window server installed successfully
8. Centos 8 installed can’t be installed on it (it’s not compatible with it compatibility)
9. Centos 7 installed successfully and failed after some time
Conclusion Now we are using HPE ProLiant gen10 computer as server and it’s host library management system online catalog (KOHA) and everything is running well
HPE ProLiant gen10 can’t allow any operating system to installed on it some are installed
successfully and others fairly because it's not compatible with different operating systems
