Installing the server into the rack

To install the server into a rack with square, round, or threaded holes, refer to the instructions that ship with the rack
hardware kit.
If you are installing the server into a telco rack, order the appropriate option kit at the RackSolutions.com website. To
install the rack brackets, follow the server-specific instructions on the website.
WARNING: This server is 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.
Get help to lift and stabilize the product during installation or removal, especially when the product is not
fastened to the rails. Hewlett Packard Enterprise recommends that a minimum of two people are required for all
rack server installations. A third person may be required to help align the server if the server is installed higher
than chest level.
Use caution when installing the server in or removing the server from the rack; it is unstable when not fastened
to the rails.
CAUTION: Always plan the rack installation so that the heaviest item is on the bottom of the rack. Install the
heaviest item first, and continue to populate the rack from the bottom to the top.
