HP NetServer – Compaq Rack Precautions
CAUTION
When installing this HP NetServer in a Compaq rack enclosure, certain
requirements must be addressed to assure that the needs of the NetServer are met.
This NetServer will meet the requirements designed for the NetServer if:
The NetServer is installed in a Compaq model 4000- or 7000-series rack
enclosure. This NetServer is not supported in any other non-HP rack
enclosure.
If you choose to use a door on this enclosure, only a Compaq model 4000-
or 7000-series door may be used. No other door may be used. The
enclosure may then be used with the door open, closed, or removed.
Mass storage devices listed in the Tested Products List (located on the
HP NetServer Navigator CD-ROM) are used exclusively in the NetServer.
Use HP rack accessories. (Note that HP rack accessories are not optimized
for Compaq rack enclosures.)
Compaq rack accessories have not been tested with HP NetServer
products, but components such as monitors, keyboards, switchboxes, and
PDUs often work.
®
Use APC uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) with HP NetServers.
APC offers mounting kits for Compaq rack enclosures.
If this NetServer is not installed according to these
instructions, damage to the NetServer or accessories may
result. Damage due to improper installation is not covered by
the HP Warranty. Observe the precautions listed in this
section to maintain the NetServer's reliability.
