Suggested Method for Building an HP NetServer Rack Installation

1. Check Site Preparation
Use the Site Preparation Checklist in this chapter to be sure that all necessary
preparations have been completed, including:
floor assessed for levelness and sufficient strength and space
network and software guidelines met
site electrical power supply set-up complete
environmental and space requirements met
data and voice communications pre-tested
system parameters correctly configured
hardware and cables order checked
2. Receiving
CAUTION
Units are heavy, often weighing between 85 and 180 lb. (50
and 110 kg). Do not attempt to move or install such units
without help. Also, remove power supplies and hard disk
drives to minimize the amount of weight to be lifted.
Compare the order documents to the packing list or to a list of boxes received.
Check to see that all parts are present. Unpack the HP NetServer and external
storage and tape backup units (if any were ordered).
NOTE Save the boxes and packaging materials if you intend to reship
the units and rack.
3. Prepare Rack Enclosures for Assembly
WARNING A tip-over hazard exists. Rack enclosures are shipped upright
and are top-heavy. Never move enclosures without adequate
equipment and assistance. Use caution to prevent rack from
falling over and causing potential damage or injury.
