Furthermore, you must be sure that all power distribution devices used in the installation, such as branch
wiring and receptacles, are listed or certified grounding-type devices.
Because of the high ground-leakage currents associated with multiple servers connected to the same
power source, HP recommends the use of a PDU that is either permanently wired to the building's branch
circuit or includes a nondetachable cord that is wired to an industrial-style plug. NEMA locking-style plugs
or those complying with IEC 60309 are considered suitable for this purpose. Using common power outlet
strips for the server is not recommended.

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:
rack:
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
may 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.

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
12)."

Powering up and configuring the server

To power up the server, press the Power On/Standby button.
For detailed information on configuring the server, see the server installation sheet.

Installing the operating system

To operate properly, the server must have a supported operating system. For the latest information on
supported operating systems, refer to the HP website (http://www.hp.com/go/supportos).
To install an operating system on the server, insert the operating system CD into the CD-ROM drive and
reboot the server. This process may require you to obtain additional drivers from the Easy Set-up CD or
