Page 15: Delivery Considerations
Overview Delivery Considerations The following list is only a sampling of the many delivery considerations available. For more information, visit the Best Practices web page at www.hp.com. When preparing to receive palletized racks, consider the following: • The dock door at the receiving site has to accommodate the height and width of palletized racks. -
Page 16: Installation Service
Overview 9. Install the appropriate support rails and/or tray for the first rack-mountable component. 10. Install the first individual component. 11. Attach a cable management arm, if required. 12. Attach the appropriate cables and power cords to the component, being sure to adhere to all cautions and warnings. -
Page 17: Configuration Factors
Configuration Factors Before populating your new rack, it is important to plan the placement of each component. Factors of each component, such as weight, accessibility, power, temperature, and airflow requirements, affect installation order and component placement in the rack. Rack Configuration Software To help you plan your rack configuration more efficiently, HP provides Rack Builder Online, the browser-based rack configuration tool. -
Page 18: Rack Builder Online Modes Of Operation
Configuration Factors Rack Builder Online Modes of Operation The Rack Builder Online software has two modes of operation: • Help Me Build It Mode—Includes a simple interview session to help determine your rack and component needs, as well as the necessary power products and rack assembly devices needed to complete the final rack assembly. -
Page 19: Component Placement
Configuration Factors Component Placement The following rules apply to the physical placement of components in the rack: • Weight—Sort all components by weight, placing the heaviest components at the bottom of the rack. • Server Console Switch—Position the switch box on the side of the rack above the keyboard, or mount it behind the keyboard. - Page 20 Configuration Factors • Server Console Switch—If a switch box is configured, use the CPU-to-Switch cable included with the server. The standard distance between the switch box and the keyboard, monitor, and/or mouse can vary by 3-, 7-, 12-, 20- and 40-foot lengths.
-
Page 21: Optimum Environment
Configuration Factors Optimum Environment Specific requirements for space, power, temperature, and airflow must be met to provide optimum performance with minimum maintenance for your rack environment. Space Requirements When deciding where to place your rack: • At least 122 centimeters (48 inches) of clearance is needed all the way around the pallet and above the rack to allow the removal the packing materials. -
Page 22: Grounding Requirements
Configuration Factors • If a UPS is used, the load should not exceed 80 percent of the UPS’s marked electrical current rating. CAUTION: To reduce the risk of damage to the equipment, verify that all AC Voltage Selector Switches are set correctly to match your local AC line voltage (115V or 230V). -
Page 23: Temperature Requirements
Configuration Factors Temperature Requirements For safe and reliable operation of equipment, locate the system in a well-ventilated, climate-controlled environment. The HP Maximum Recommended Ambient Operating Temperature (TMRA) for most server products is 95°F (35°C). Therefore, the temperature in the room where the rack is located should not exceed 95°F (35°C). -
Page 24: Airflow Requirements
Configuration Factors Airflow Requirements HP rack-mountable products typically draw in cool air through the front and exhaust warm air out through the rear of the rack. The front door of the rack, therefore, must be adequately ventilated to allow ambient room air to enter the rack, and the rear door must be adequately ventilated to allow the warm air to escape the rack. -

Page 44: Preparing The Sliding Rail
Installing Components Preparing the Sliding Rail Components mounted with this type of rail are designed for frequent accessibility and/or maintenance. 1. Extend the component rail until the component rail release latch clicks (1). 2. Hold down the component rail release latch (2) and completely remove the component rail from the sliding rail assembly. - Page 45 Installing Components 3. After removing the component rails, attach the sliding rail assembly to the rack- mounting brackets. Note the orientation of the rack-mounting brackets: a. The front flange (1) has alignment tabs. b. The back flange (2) is designed to install flush against the rack. NOTE: There are eight screw holes in the standard rack-mounting brackets.
- Page 46 Installing Components 4. Note the orientation of the sliding rail assembly: a. The front of the sliding rail assembly (1) allows the inner slide to move forward on ball bearings. b. The back of the sliding rail assembly (2) has a stop for the inner slide. NOTE: While matching fronts, lay one rack-mounting bracket and one sliding rail assembly together so that the screw holes are aligned.
- Page 47 Installing Components 5. Extend the inner slide in the sliding rail assembly until the screw holes in the rack-mounting bracket and the sliding rail assembly are aligned (1). Secure the sliding rail assembly to the rack-mounting bracket by inserting one 8-32 × 3/8 screw into each of the three exposed holes, two near the rear and one near the front of the sliding rail assembly.

Page 48: Installing The Sliding Rails
Installing Components Installing the Sliding Rails 1. Align and secure the front of the sliding rail to the front of the rack with two M6 × 16 screws. NOTE: The tabs on the front of the sliding rails help you align them correctly with the mounting rails. -
Page 49: Preparing The Component
Installing Components 2. Align the rear of the sliding rail with the cage nuts on the rear of the rack and secure with two M6 × 16 screws. Figure 4-11: Securing the rear of the sliding rail Preparing the Component The following are general instructions for installing a typical rack-mountable component. -
Page 50: Sliding Rails
Installing Components Sliding Rails For a sliding rail installation, you need to install the component rails on the component before you can insert it into the rack. 1. Locate the component rails that you set aside when they were removed from the sliding rails earlier. -
Page 51: Cable Management Arm Bracket
Installing Components Cable Management Arm Bracket If the component uses a cable management arm, use two 6-32 × 1/4 screws to attach the bracket that supports the cable management arm to the component.
