Page 17: Chapter 1 Compaq Proliant 3000 Server Features
Compaq ProLiant 3000 servers provide state-of-the-art reliability and high- availability features, including redundant hot-pluggable power supplies and hot-pluggable Wide-Ultra SCSI-3 drives. To facilitate upgrade and repair tasks, Compaq designed the ProLiant 3000 server so that no tools are required to enter the chassis. Standard Features The following features are standard on all Compaq ProLiant 3000 models, unless otherwise noted.
Page 18: Cache Memory And System Architecture
Compaq ProLiant 3000 Server Features Cache Memory and System Architecture 512-KB secondary (L2) cache Compaq ProLiant 3000 System Architecture with Dual Memory controllers and Dual Peer PCI buses System Memory 64-MB standard, extended data out (EDO), error checking and correcting (ECC) DIMMs Supports EDO buffered, 60-ns or faster, 32-, 64-, 128-, or 256-MB, , 4-K or 8-K refreshed DIMMs.
Page 19: Media Bays
Media Bays The Compaq ProLiant 3000 server can house up to 12 mass storage devices. Internal Drives - the server can be configured in either Simplex or Duplex drive cage configurations. Simplex mode configures the drive cage into a single drive cage attached to a single SCSI channel. Duplex mode configures the drive cage into two separate drive cages that are connected to separate SCSI channels.

Page 30: Pre-Installation Planning
To reduce the risk of personal injury, fire, or damage to the equipment, do not overload the AC supply branch circuit that provides power to the server. Consult the electrical authority having jurisdiction over your facility wiring and installation requirements. ProLiant 3000 Setup and Installation Guide...
Page 31: Grounding
To ensure continued safe and reliable operation of the equipment, locate the system in a well-ventilated, climate-controlled environment. The Compaq Maximum Recommended Ambient Operating Temperature (TMRA) for most server products is 35°C (95°F). Therefore, the temperature in the room where the rack is located should not exceed 35°C (95°F).
Page 32: Installation Procedure
There are two installation procedures presented in the following paragraphs. Each procedure is a summary of the steps you will follow to install your Compaq ProLiant 3000 server. The procedure you will use depends on whether you are installing a rack-mount model or a tower model server. Detailed instructions for each of the numbered steps are included in later chapters of this guide.
Page 33: Installing A Tower Model
Installation Overview 12. Connect cables: keyboard, mouse, monitor, network, and power cables. See Cabling Guidelines for Compaq ProLiant 3000 Servers. 13. Turn on the computer and insert the SmartStart and Support Software CD to configure and manage the server. When the server boots from the SmartStart program, it automatically starts the System Configuration Utility.
Page 34 For complete details on the SmartStart program, read the SmartStart installation card included in your SmartStart package. After the SmartStart program has finished configuring your system, installation of your new Compaq server is complete. ProLiant 3000 Setup and Installation Guide...
Page 35: Chapter 3 Rack-Mount Server Installation
How to attach the mounting hardware to the server and to the rack How to install the server into the rack You may choose Compaq’s optional installation service to install your rack products. See “Optional Installation Service” at the end of this chapter.
Page 36 Rack-Mount Server Installation WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment, at least two people are needed to safely unload the rack from the pallet. An empty 42U rack weighs 253 LB (115 kg), is over seven ft (2.1m) tall, and may become unstable when being moved on its casters.

Rack-Mountable ProLiant Servers or increase the internal rack temperature beyond the Compaq specified maximum rating. Ensure that the Manufacturer’s Maximum Recommended Ambient Operating Temperature of the option equipment is not exceeded when installed in the rack. ProLiant 3000 Setup and Installation Guide...
Page 38: Airflow Requirements
Rack-Mount Server Installation Airflow Requirements Compaq ProLiant rackmountable servers draw cool air in through the front door and exhaust warm air out the rear. Therefore, the front door of the rack must be adequately ventilated to allow ambient room air to enter the cabinet, and the rear door must be adequately ventilated to allow the warm air to escape from the cabinet.
Page 39: Unpacking The Server
Unpack the server box and locate the materials and documentation necessary to install your rack-mountable server. Locating Materials and Documentation All of the equipment needed to install the ProLiant 3000 server in the rack is included with the rack and with the server Figure 3-1.

Page 42: Preparing The Mounting Brackets And Slide Rail Assemblies
Rack-Mount Server Installation Preparing the Mounting Brackets and Slide Rail Assemblies Each pair of mounting brackets, with attached slide rail assemblies, supports one rack-mountable server. Figure 3-2. Each slide rail assembly consists of an outer bracket rail and an inner component rail (see the following figure).
Page 43: Attaching The Bracket Rail To The Mounting Bracket
Extend the component rail from the bracket slide rail until the component rail release latch clicks. Holding down the latch, slip this piece out of each bracket rail, as shown in the following figure. To make the installation of the mounting bracket easier, ProLiant 3000 Setup and Installation Guide...
Page 44 3-10 Rack-Mount Server Installation Figure 3-4. 3. Put the component rails to one side. You will attach them to the rack server chassis later, in the section, "Attaching Component Rails to the Server." The next figure shows the separated bracket rail with its inner sliding piece and the flat, one-piece component rail.
Page 45 To identify the front of the mounting bracket and the bracket rail: The front of the mounting bracket has alignment tabs on its flange. The front of the bracket rail allows the inner slide to move forward on ball bearings. 3-11 ProLiant 3000 Setup and Installation Guide...

Page 48: Attaching The Mounting Bracket Slide Assembly To The Rack
3-14 Rack-Mount Server Installation Attaching the Mounting Bracket Slide Assembly to the Rack Measuring with the Template The template provided with the server offers an easy and reliable way to properly position the server in the rack. Use the tabs on the template to suspend it from the lower hole of a two-hole set of perforations in the vertical side rails.
Page 49 Be sure to follow the alignment instructions on the template, and keep the sides of the template squared up with the sides of the rack. Tick marks on the rack’s vertical rails will help you maintain the proper alignment. 3-15 ProLiant 3000 Setup and Installation Guide...

Page 60: Attaching The Optional Cable Support
3-26 Rack-Mount Server Installation Figure 3-16. Attaching the Optional Cable Support The optional cable support attaches to both sides of the rack’s rear. All cables to and from the server are tied to this support, which allows the server cables to stretch from the right rear of the server across to the cable channel on the other side of the rack, where the other cables are all bundled in the cable channel.
Page 61: Optional Installation Service
The installation service covers the entire hardware installation from unpacking the components to routing the cables and running a test of the system. In the United States, Compaq will make all of the arrangements to have the rack system installed by qualified Guaranteed Service Providers. An order form with pricing is available from PaqFax, the Compaq fax retrieval service.
