Mounting the HP Netserver on the Slides

Use this procedure to insert the HP Netserver into the slides mounted in the rack.
Once the Netserver is in the rack, you can connect the cables to the rear of the
Netserver.

WARNING

To prevent rack instability while mounting the HP Netserver
LP 2000r, ensure the anti-tip foot (at the bottom of the rack) is
pulled out and the leveler screws on the rack’s lower four
corners are in firm contact with the floor (see Figure 7-3).
Failure to do so could result in injury and equipment damage.

1. Ensure the leveler screws on the rack’s corners make firm contact with the

floor. Extend the anti-tip foot from the rack. See Figure 13-1.

CAUTION

The HP Netserver LP 2000r weighs 38 lbs (17.3 kg) fully
loaded. To avoid accidents, use two people when placing the
HP Netserver into the rack.

2. Mount the HP Netserver on the slides:

a. With the help of at least one other person, lift the Netserver by its four

corners off the floor or pallet.

b. Slowly insert the Netserver chassis into the slides and push it into the

rack until you feel resistance. See Figure 13-6.

c. Pull the HP Netserver out several inches, then press the stop release on

both slides to allow the Netserver to slide completely into the rack. See
Figure 13-7.

3. Secure the HP Netserver chassis to the rack with thumbscrews.
