Installing hardware options

Install any hardware options before initializing the server. For options installation information, refer to the
option documentation. For server-specific information, refer to "Hardware options installation (on page

32

)."

Installing the server into the rack

To install the server into a rack with square, round, or threaded holes, refer to the instructions that ship
with the rack hardware kit.
If you are installing the server into a telco rack, order the appropriate option kit at the RackSolutions.com

website (

http://www.racksolutions.com/hp

). Follow the server-specific instructions on the website to install

the rack brackets.
Use the following information when connecting peripheral cables and power cords to the server.

WARNING:

This server is very heavy. To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the

equipment:

Observe local occupational health and safety requirements and guidelines for manual
material handling.

Get help to lift and stabilize the product during installation or removal, especially when the
product is not fastened to the rails. When the server weighs more than 22.5 kg (50 lb), at

least two people must lift the server into the rack together. A third person may be required

to help align the server if the server is installed higher than chest level.

Use caution when installing the server in or removing the server from the rack; it is unstable

when not fastened to the rails.

CAUTION:

Always plan the rack installation so that the heaviest item is on the bottom of the

rack. Install the heaviest item first, and continue to populate the rack from the bottom to the top.

Install the server and cable management arm into the rack. Refer to the installation instructions that
