Rack Installation Overview

Installing the ProLiant DL760 server in the rack requires the following steps
(detailed later in this chapter):

1. Select a site and unpack the server. See the next sections, “Selecting a

Site” and “Shipping Box Contents” in this chapter.

2. Remove the power supply, I/O Module, and Processor and Memory

Module shipping brackets. Refer to “Removing the Shipping
Safeguards” later in this chapter.

3. Release the top access panel latch. Slide the top access panel open and

loosen the shipping screw on top of the unit.

4. Loosen the shipping screw between the I/O Module and the

Processor and Memory module. See “Removing the Shipping
Safeguards” later in this chapter.

5. Install any expansion boards or other options, such as additional

memory. Refer to Chapter 4, “Installing Hardware Options – Server
Power Off,” and Chapter 5, “Installing Hardware Options – Hot
Pluggable,” for more information on hardware options and expansion
boards.
Run the ROM-Based Setup Utility after you install certain hardware
options, with the exception of additional memory and most PCI/PCI-X
boards.

NOTE: Refer to the Server Setup and Management pack shipped with your server to run
the ROM-Based Setup Utility. See Chapter 4, “Installing Hardware Options–Server Power
Off,” and Chapter 5, “Installing Hardware Options–Hot Pluggable,” to install many of the
major options.

NOTE: If the operating system is pre-installed on the server, refer to the Compaq Factory
Installed Operating System Software User Guide
that is included with the server.

6. Remove the Processor and Memory module, Media Module, and

power supplies to lighten the chassis.

7. Install the chassis in the rack and replace the modules and power

supplies.

8. Connect the cables: keyboard, mouse, monitor, network, storage,

and power. See Chapter 6, “Cabling the Server.”
