1 Planning for installation The GUI illustrations in this guide were created using a Windows computer with the Internet Explorer browser. Actual windows may differ depending on the operating system and browser used. GUI contents also vary with licensed program products, storage system models, and firmware versions. Responsibilities The responsibilities for installation planning are shared by the customer and HP support.

2 Safety requirements General safety guidelines Observe the following general site guidelines: • General Requirements: The data center must comply with all applicable safety regulations, standards, and requirements for installing and operating industrial computer equipment similar to a XP7 disk array. • Fire protection: The data center must have an operational fire protection system appropriate for use with computer and electrical equipment.
and ramps to a raised computer room floor. Move the cabinet slowly and deliberately, and make sure that the floor is free from foreign objects and cables that the cabinet could roll over. WARNING! To avoid injury, wear protective footwear when moving equipment. Warning about moving parts Even though customers do not install or maintain equipment, these guidelines are provided to prevent possible injury when working with authorized service personnel.
3 Installation requirements Safety requirements Safety requirements and guidelines are covered in “Safety requirements” (page 8). General site requirements The customer site must accommodate the delivery and movement of the equipment from the receiving dock to the installation location in the data center. Equipment clearances Receiving area: The receiving dock, storage area, and receiving area must be large enough to allow movement of and access to crated or packed equipment.
Equipment weight The floors, elevators, and ramps must be able to support the weight of the delivered equipment as it is moved to the installation location. Spreader plates may be required to distribute the load and protect the floor as the equipment is moved from the receiving area to the installation location. Consult the system bill of materials to establish the anticipated summary weights. The weight of the equipment depends on the disk array configuration.
