WARNING:
When installing a server in a telco rack, be sure that the rack frame is adequately
secured at the top and bottom to the building structure.
Identifying the contents of the server shipping carton
Unpack the server shipping carton and locate the materials and documentation necessary for installing the
server. All the rack mounting hardware necessary for installing the server into the rack is included with the
rack or the server.
The contents of the server shipping carton include:
• Server
• Power cord
• Printed setup documentation, Documentation CD, and software products
• Rack mounting hardware kit and documentation (optional)
You need the following items for some procedures:
• T-25 Torx screwdriver (to use on the screws located inside the server quick-release levers)
• T-10/T-15 Torx screwdriver
• Hardware options
• Operating system or application software
Installing hardware options
Install any hardware options before initializing the server. For options installation information, see the option
documentation. For server-specific information, see "Hardware options installation (on page 35)."
Installing the server into the rack
To install the server into a rack with square, round, or threaded holes, refer to the instructions that ship with
the rack hardware kit.
If you are installing the server into a telco rack, order the appropriate option kit at the RackSolutions.com
website (http://www.racksolutions.com/hp). Follow the server-specific instructions on the website to install
the rack brackets.
WARNING: This server is very heavy. To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the
equipment:
• Observe local occupational health and safety requirements and guidelines for manual
material handling.
• Get help to lift and stabilize the product during installation or removal, especially when the
product is not fastened to the rails. HP recommends that a minimum of two people are required
for all rack server installations. A third person may be required to help align the server if the
server is installed higher than chest level.
• Use caution when installing the server in or removing the server from the rack; it is unstable
when not fastened to the rails.
