Customer Guidelines
Adhere to the following guidelines when servicing or installing a Compaq server:
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to the equipment:
• Unplug the power cord from the system.
• Do not disable the power-cord grounding plug. The grounding plug is an important
safety feature.
• Plug the power cord into a grounded (earthed) electrical outlet that is easily accessible
at all times.
CAUTION: To properly ventilate the system, provide at least 3 inches (7.6 cm) of
clearance at the front and back of the computer.
CAUTION: The system is designed to be electrically grounded. To ensure proper
operation, plug the AC power cord only into a properly grounded (earthed) AC outlet.
Rack Warnings
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment:
• Do not attempt to move or relocate an equipment rack populated with servers. A fully
populated rack can weigh as much as 1,700 pounds. The rack may become unstable
and cause serious personal injury or equipment damage.
• Before installing the servers, extend the leveling jacks to the floor, and rest the full
weight of the rack on the leveling jacks. Either install the stabilizer kit or couple
multiple racks together for stability.
• Always load the heaviest item first, and load the rack from the bottom to the top.
Loading in this manner makes the rack “bottom-heavy” and helps prevent the rack
from becoming unstable.
• Extend only one ProLiant DL320 server at a time. A rack may become unstable if
more than one ProLiant DL320 server is fully extended for any reason.
CAUTION: Do not overload the AC supply branch circuit that provides power to the
rack.
Note: Slide rails, power distribution units (PDUs), power cords, and cables can be preinstalled
into the rack in a build room or on the data center floor before moving the rack to its final
location.
