Rack-Mounting the HP NetServer
Install the slides, which hold the HP NetServer in the rack. Do this by first
marking a baseline based on where you want the HP NetServer in the rack.
Marking Column Baseline and Slide Mounting Holes
To determine the hole position for rack nuts and bar nuts, which will secure the
slides to the rack, mark the slide mounting holes on all columns.
1. Use tape or a marker to mark where you want the bottom of the HP
NetServer to be in the rack. Mark at an EIA unit mark on a column. This
starts your baseline.
NOTE
The EIA unit marks are stamped in the sheet metal of the
columns. Use the rack template to mark the correct holes for
mounting (on all four columns).
2. Hold the bottom of the rack template at the baseline.
3. Mark the top of HP NetServer (eight EIA units up from the baseline).
4. Mark the slide screw mounting holes (holes 20 and 22 up from the
baseline).
5. Mark the remaining columns by repeating steps 1 through 4. This
completes the marking of the baseline.
