HP ProLiant DL385 Server User Guide – HP ProLiant Essentials (HP SIM and RDP) – VMWare • Integrated hardware and software support – Critical Service – Proactive 24 – Support Plus – Support Plus 24 • Startup and implementation services for both hardware and software For more information on Care Packs, refer to the HP website (http://www.hp.com/hps/carepack/servers/cp_proliant.html).
Server setup 47 • Leave a minimum clearance of 76.2 cm (30 in) behind the rack. • Leave a minimum clearance of 121.9 cm (48 in) from the back of the rack to the back of another rack or row of racks. HP servers draw in cool air through the front door and expel warm air through the rear door.
HP ProLiant DL385 Server User Guide • Front and rear doors—If the 42U rack includes closing front and rear doors, you must allow 5,350 sq cm (830 sq in) of holes evenly distributed from top to bottom to permit adequate airflow (equivalent to the required 64 percent open area for ventilation). • Side—The clearance between the installed rack component and the side panels of the rack must be a minimum of 7 cm (2.75 in).
Server setup 49 CAUTION: Protect the server from power fluctuations and temporary interruptions with a regulating uninterruptible power supply (UPS). This device protects the hardware from damage caused by power surges and voltage spikes and keeps the system in operation during a power failure. When installing more than one server, you may need to use additional power distribution devices to safely provide power to all devices.
HP ProLiant DL385 Server User Guide Rack warnings WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment, be sure that: • The leveling jacks are extended to the floor. • The full weight of the rack rests on the leveling jacks. • The stabilizing feet are attached to the rack if it is a single-rack installation. • The racks are coupled together in multiple-rack installations. • Only one component is extended at a time.
Server setup • Remove all pluggable power supplies and modules to reduce the weight of the product before lifting it. • 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. When the component weighs more than 22.5 kg (50 lb), at least two people must lift the component into the rack together.
HP ProLiant DL385 Server User Guide Installing hardware options Install any hardware options before initializing the server. For options installation information, refer to the option documentation. For server-specific information, refer to "Hardware options installation (on page 57)." Installing the server into the rack 20.41 - 27.22 kg 47.18 - 60.
Server setup WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or damage to the equipment, do not plug telephone or telecommunications connectors into RJ-45 connectors. IMPORTANT: If the RILOE II board is installed in the server, be sure that you attach the video cable to the video connector on the rear of the RILOE II board. The standard video connector on the server rear panel is not used when the RILOE II board is installed.
HP ProLiant DL385 Server User Guide Item Description Connector Color 11 USB connectors (2) Black 12 Video connector Blue 4. Connect the power cord to the back of the server. 5. If you chose not to install the cable management arm, install the power cord anchor to the server. NOTE: Peripheral device cables are removed for clarity.
Server setup IMPORTANT: When using cable management arm components, be sure to leave enough slack in each of the cables to prevent damage to the cables when the server is extended from the rack. 7. Connect the power cord to the AC power source. WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to the equipment: • Do not disable the power cord grounding plug. The grounding plug is an important safety feature.
HP ProLiant DL385 Server User Guide To configure these utilities manually: • Press the F8 key when prompted during the array controller initialization to configure the array controller using ORCA. • Press the F9 key when prompted during the boot process to change the server settings using RBSU. The system is set up by default for the English language. For more information on the automatic configuration, refer to the HP ROMBased Setup Utility User Guide located on the Documentation CD.

The system automatically sets all SCSI IDs.
Hardware options installation 65 SCSI IDs The server supports single- or dual-channel hard drive configurations. The single-channel configuration (simplex) supports up to six hard drives on one channel. The dual-channel configuration (duplex) supports two hard drives on one channel (SCSI IDs 0 and 1) and up to four hard drives on the other channel (SCSI IDs 2 through 5). The SCSI IDs for both simplex and duplex configurations are illustrated.
HP ProLiant DL385 Server User Guide NOTE: The server ships standard with five hard drive blanks.
