Preparing the Rack

The rack nuts and slide mechanism must be connected to the rack before installing
the HP NetServer LXr 8500 into the rack. A cardboard rack-mounting template
comes with the HP NetServer. This template shows you where to mount the nuts
on the rack.

Attaching Rack Nuts to the Rack

Use this section to attach the rack nuts to the front and rear columns of the HP
System/E or HP System/U rack. The rack nuts are used to hold the HP NetServer's
slides in place and to secure the front of the HP NetServer to the rack.
CAUTION
If other rack components are to be mounted in the rack below
the HP NetServer, install those components before starting to
mount the HP NetServer.
NOTE Use the HP Rack Configuration Tools to determine where in
the rack to mount the HP NetServer. The tools are available at:
