Installation Basics; Safety Precautions - HP D5970A - NetServer - LCII Installation Manual

Chapter 13
The HP NetServer rack mount kit requires seven EIA units of space in the rack.
Before mounting the server, plan the server's location in the rack relative to other
rack components. Proper placement is vital both for safety and operating
efficiency. For more details, see the Rack Installation Road Map and the HP
NetServer Rack Assembly and Cabling Reference Guide.
NOTE Mounting the HP NetServer in its rack may or may not be the
final step in the installation procedure. If the HP NetServer is
completely configured by the vendor before delivery to the
customer, then mounting the HP NetServer in the rack may be
the last step. If the vendor configures the HP NetServer at the
customer's site, installation of the network operating system
and other software may occur after the HP NetServer is
mounted in the rack.
CAUTION
The HP NetServer weighs over 130 pounds. To avoid
accidents, remove the server's three power supplies before
lifting it.
CAUTION
If other rack components are to be mounted in the rack below
the HP NetServer, install those components before starting to
mount the server.
