Rack warnings
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or
damage to the equipment, be sure that:
• The leveling jacks are extended to the floor.
• The full weight of the rack rests on the leveling jacks.
• The stabilizing feet are attached to the rack if it is a
single-rack installation.
• The racks are coupled together in multiple-rack
installations.
• Only one component is extended at a time. A rack may
become unstable if more than one component is
extended for any reason.
WARNING: If you are going to use a lift, be sure to use a
lift that can handle the load of the component.
Anti-tip stabilizer
The anti-tip stabilizers provide stability and support when equipment is
installed, removed or accessed within the rack. Stabilizer kits are
available in both 600-mm and 800-mm versions. HP also recommends
using the side feet, provided with these kits, to stabilize stand-alone
racks from the other side. If you are stabilizing racks that are secured
together with baying kits, the side feet are optional on either end of the
row.
HP recommends that stabilizer option kits be used when one or more of
the following situations occur:
• The standard 600-mm (23.62-in) or 800-mm (31.50-in) front foot
is required with deployments of stand-alone racks.
• Side feet, which are included in the stabilizer kits, are
recommended to be installed as well.
Rack rows with four or more bayed racks, without a single
rack-mountable component exceeding 99.79 kg (220 lb), do not need
a stabilizer kit installed.
Important safety information
See the Important Safety Information document included with the
server.
CAUTION: Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage
electronic components. Be sure that you are properly
grounded (earthed) before beginning any installation
procedure.
Installing the product in a rack
The following procedure has steps that contain two images. Each
image illustrates a rack unit alignment method for installing the rack
rails:
• The top image illustrates a full U rack unit installation.
• The bottom image illustrates a 1/2 U rack unit installation.
Rack rail installation depends on your rack configuration. Be sure to
follow the appropriate markings on the rack rails and select the correct
image for your setup.
