HPE Apollo 2000 Gen10 System Introduction The HPE Apollo 2000 Gen10 System consists of a chassis and servers. There are four chassis options with different storage configurations. To ensure proper thermal cooling, all server tray slots on the chassis must be populated with servers or server tray blanks.
HPE Apollo Platform Manager, formerly named HPE Advanced Power Manager, is a point of contact for system administration. To install, configure, and access HPE APM, see the HPE Apollo Platform Manager User Guide on the Hewlett Packard Enterprise website (http://www.hpe.com/support/APM_UG_en).
For more information on the hot-plug power supply and calculators to determine server power consumption in various system configurations, see the Hewlett Packard Enterprise Power Advisor website (http://www.hpe.com/info/poweradvisor/online). Compiling the documentation The documentation, while delivered individually and in various formats, works as a system. Consult these documents before attempting installation.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to the equipment: • Never reach inside the chassis while the system is powered up. • Perform service on system components only as instructed in the user documentation. CAUTION: Always be sure that equipment is properly grounded and that you follow proper grounding procedures before beginning any installation procedure.
CAUTION: If a third-party rack is used, observe the following additional requirements to ensure adequate airflow and to prevent damage to the equipment: • 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).
Page 11
WARNING: Remove power from the power supply before performing any installation steps or maintenance on the power supply. CAUTION: The server equipment connects the earthed conductor of the DC supply circuit to the earthing conductor at the equipment. For more information, see the documentation that ships with the power supply.
