Inserting the Server into the Rack
CAUTION: To avoid destabilizing the rack, install multiple servers, starting from
the bottom of the rack.
NOTE: The Compaq ProLiant DL320 server ships with standard factory-mounted fixed
server rails for simplified rack installation.
Use the following procedures to insert the server into the rack:
1. Move to the front of the rack.
2. Ensure that you have completed the procedure for “Attaching the Fixed
Rack Rails to the Rack” earlier in this chapter.
3. Align the rear end of the fixed server rails (on the sides of the server)
with the front end of the fixed rack rails
.

NOTE: 1U of space is left empty in the drawing for clarity purposes. The ProLiant DL320
server should be installed in every U from the bottom of the rack. This arrangement
provides maximum density. Work from the bottom of the rack up, filling all spaces.
WARNING: To avoid personal injury, press the rail release latches and slowly
slide the server into the rack. The rail-release latches can pinch your fingertips.
