Rack warnings

WARNING!
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. A rack may become unstable if more than one
component is extended for any reason.
WARNING!
At least two people are needed to safely unload the rack from the pallet. An empty 42U rack
can weigh as much as 115 kg (253 lb), can stand more than 2.1 m (7 ft) tall, and might
become unstable when being moved on its casters.
Never stand in front of the rack when it is rolling down the ramp from the pallet. Always
handle the rack from both sides.

Third-party racks

HPE has not tested or validated the D6020 with any third-party racks. Before installing the D6020
in a third-party rack, be sure to properly scope the limitations of the rack.

Site planning considerations

Customer facility managers and system administrators must discuss site planning, preparation,
and system installation before system delivery. A common understanding of environmental
requirements and how the systems are delivered, configured, installed, and maintained helps to
create a suitable data center and aids the successful installation of the equipment and related
equipment.
It is important to plan the facility as a whole; not designed based on calculations of individual
system or rack level requirements. Too many interdependencies in a modern data center make
such simple calculations unreliable. Designs and plans must be made for the data center as a
whole, including all of its equipment, with the realization that making one change in the data
center environment can affect many other physical, mechanical, and environmental aspects of
the facility.
Take into account the requirements of third-party equipment and support equipment in the room.
Dense computing locations might have high power and cooling demands that could affect power
and environmental constraints. Be aware of rack positioning and airflow patterns. Ensure that
the raised floor space, cooling equipment, power supply equipment and generators, and other
support equipment meet the all equipment demands and other mission-critical equipment.

Installing the chassis in the rack

To install the chassis:
NOTE: To install rack rails, see the D6020 Rail Kit Install Card.
1. Unpack the chassis from its packaging.
2. Lifting the chassis with the chassis handles (or with a lift), align the back of the chassis to
the front of the rack rails.
