3 Server Setup Optional Installation Services You may choose to have HP install the system. The installation service can be purchased as a Care Pack packaged service or as a customized service agreement to meet your specific requirements.
Server Setup The entire Rack Resource CD Kit ships with all HP racks. A summary of the content of each CD follows: • Rack Builder Pro Configuration Tool This information helps you to simulate potential rack configurations based on your input.
Server Setup HP servers draw in cool air through the front door and expel warm air through the rear door. Therefore, the front and rear rack doors must be adequately ventilated to allow ambient room air to enter the cabinet, and the rear door must be adequately ventilated to enable the warm air to escape from the cabinet. CAUTION: To prevent improper cooling and damage to the equipment, do not block the ventilation openings.
Server Setup Power Requirements The installation of this equipment shall be in accordance with local/regional electrical regulations governing the installation of information technology equipment by licensed electricians. This equipment is designed to operate in installations covered by NFPA 70, 1999 Edition (National Electric Code) and NFPA 75, 1992 Edition (code for Protection of Electronic Computer/Data Processing Equipment).
Server Setup Rack Warnings and Cautions WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or equipment damage, be sure that: • The leveling jacks are extended to the floor. • The full weight of the rack rests on the leveling jacks. • The stabilizers are attached to the rack for 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.
