Chapter 2 Planning the Server Installation To ensure maximum performance and availability from your Compaq ProLiant ML370 Generation 2 server, plan your operating environment before beginning server installation. Figure 2-1.
2-2 Compaq ProLiant ML370 Generation 2 Server Setup and Installation Guide ■ Server warnings and cautions ■ Rack server shipping contents ■ Tower server shipping contents ■ Optional installation service Optimum Environment Peak server performance depends in part on the environment you select for installing your server or servers.
Planning the Server Installation 2-3 When there is any vertical space in the rack not filled by a server or rack component, the gaps between the components cause changes in airflow through the rack and across the servers. Cover all gaps with blanking panels to maintain proper airflow. Compaq 9000 Series racks provide proper server cooling from flow-through perforations in the front and rear doors that provide 64 percent open area for ventilation.
2-4 Compaq ProLiant ML370 Generation 2 Server Setup and Installation Guide Power Requirements WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury, fire, or damage to the equipment, do not overload the AC supply branch circuit that provides power to the rack. Consult the electrical authority that has jurisdiction over your facility’s wiring and installation requirements. CAUTION: Ensure that you place the equipment sufficiently close to the power outlet.
Planning the Server Installation 2-5 Electrical Grounding Requirements WARNING: This equipment is designed for connection to a grounded AC outlet. The grounding type plug is an important safety feature. To reduce risk of electrical shock or damage to your equipment, do not disable the grounding feature on the plug. The server must be grounded properly for proper operation and safety.
2-6 Compaq ProLiant ML370 Generation 2 Server Setup and Installation Guide Rack Planning Resources The following resource information is available for rack designs and products. The Rack Builder Pro Configuration Tool and Rack Products Documentation information is available on the Compaq website: www.compaq.com/rackbuilder/ The rack resource kit with Rack Resource CD ships with all Compaq racks.
Planning the Server Installation 2-7 Rack Warnings and Cautions Before installing your rack, carefully review the following warnings: WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or equipment damage, always ensure that the rack is adequately stabilized before extending a component outside the rack. A rack may become unstable if more than one component is extended for any reason. Extend only one component at a time.
2-8 Compaq ProLiant ML370 Generation 2 Server Setup and Installation Guide Server Warnings and Cautions Before installing your server, carefully review the following warnings and cautions: WARNING: This product 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.
Planning the Server Installation 2-9 CAUTION: Protect the server from power fluctuations and temporary interruptions with a regulating UPS device. This device protects the hardware from damage caused by power surges and voltage spikes and keeps the system in operation during a power failure. CAUTION: Do not operate the server for long periods without the access panel. Operating the server without the access panel results in improper airflow and improper cooling that can lead to thermal damage.
2-10 Compaq ProLiant ML370 Generation 2 Server Setup and Installation Guide Before beginning rack installation, ensure you that you have all of the components shown in the following illustration. Figure 2-2.

LED Indicators and Switches E-15 System Board Switches Some server operations, including adding or removing a component, changing a security feature, or reconfiguring the server from tower to rack, require that you reconfigure a system switch. If the system configuration is incorrect, your server may not work properly and you may receive error messages on the screen.
E-16 Compaq ProLiant ML370 Generation 2 Server Setup and Installation Guide System Maintenance Switch The system maintenance switch (SW1) is a six-position switch that is used for system configuration. The default setting for all six positions is off. For the proper system maintenance switch settings, refer to the labels attached to the inside of the server access panel or see the following table.
LED Indicators and Switches E-17 System Identification Switch The system identification switch (SW2) is a three-position switch that identifies the operational configuration of the server. This switch is set to the correct configuration for your server by default. The following table shows the switch settings and positions. CAUTION: Do not alter the default setting for your server. Doing so causes improper server operation.
E-18 Compaq ProLiant ML370 Generation 2 Server Setup and Installation Guide System Configuration Settings It may be necessary at some time to clear and reset system configuration settings. When the system maintenance switch position 6 is set to the on position, the system is prepared to erase all system configuration settings from both CMOS and NVRAM. For additional information about locating the switch and switch settings, see “System Maintenance Switch” in this appendix.
LED Indicators and Switches E-19 ROMPaq Disaster Recovery Mode A corrupted system ROM requires that you recreate the ROM BIOS by a process called flashing the ROM. This operation can be accomplished only when the system is in disaster recovery (emergency repair boot) mode. When both system ROMs are corrupt, the system defaults into disaster recovery mode automatically. Proceed by following the instructions displayed on your monitor or event log.
