Optimum Environment
When installing these servers in a rack, select a location that meets the environmental
standards described in the following paragraphs.
Space and Airflow Requirements
To allow for servicing and adequate airflow, observe the following spatial
requirements when deciding where to install an HP-branded, Compaq-branded, telco,
or third-party rack:
• Leave a minimum clearance of 63.5 cm (25 inches) in front of the rack.
• Leave a minimum clearance of 76.2 cm (30 inches) in the back of the rack.
• Leave a minimum clearance of 121.9 cm (48 inches) from the back of the rack to
the rear of another rack or row of racks.
The servers draw in cool air through the rack front door and expel warm air through
the rack rear door. Therefore, the front and rear rack doors must be adequately
ventilated to allow ambient room air to enter the front of the cabinet and warm air to
escape from the rear of the cabinet.
IMPORTANT: Do not block the ventilation openings.
Compaq branded 9000 and 10000 Series racks provide proper server cooling from
flow-through perforations in the front and rear doors that provide 64 percent open
area for ventilation.
CAUTION: When using a Compaq branded 7000 Series rack, the high airflow rack
door insert must be installed [P/N 327281-B21 (42U) and P/N 157847-B21 (22U)] to
provide proper front-to-back airflow and cooling.
CAUTION: When using a Compaq branded 7000 Series rack, an extension kit must
be installed to allow sufficient clearance for cabling and cabling hardware at the
back. Refer to www.compaq.com/quickspecs for part numbers and ordering
information.

Writer: Richard O. Heath File Name: b-ch1 Planning the Server Installation.doc
Codename: Ertl Part Number: 293974-001 Last Saved On: 10/11/02 11:15 AM
CAUTION: If a third-party rack is used, observe the following additional
requirements to ensure adequate airflow and to prevent damage to the equipment:
• Front and rear doors: If the 42U server rack includes closing front and rear
doors, 5,350 sq cm (830 square inches) of holes evenly distributed from top to
bottom must be available to permit adequate airflow (equivalent to the required
64 percent open area for ventilation).
• Side: The clearance between the installed rack component and the side panels
of the rack must be a minimum of 7 cm (2.75 inches).
CAUTION: Always use blanking panels to fill empty vertical spaces in the rack. This
arrangement ensures proper airflow. Using a rack without blanking panels, results in
improper cooling that can lead to thermal damage.
Temperature Requirements
To ensure continued safe and reliable equipment operation, install or locate the
system in a well-ventilated, climate-controlled environment.
The HP maximum recommended ambient operating temperature (TMRA) for most
server products is 35°C (95°F). The temperature in the room where the rack is
located must not exceed 35°C (95°F).
Power Requirements
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury, fire, or damage to the
equipment, do not overload the AC supply branch circuit that provides power
to the rack. Consult the electrical authority having jurisdiction over the
facility’s wiring and installation requirements.
The installation of this equipment shall be in accordance with local/regional electrical
regulations governing the installation of information technology equipment by
licensed electricians. This equipment is designed to operate in installations covered
by NFPA 70, 1999 Edition (National Electric Code) and NFPA 75, 1992 Edition
(code for Protection of Electronic Computer/Data Processing Equipment). For
electrical power ratings on options, refer to the product’s rating label or the user
documentation supplied with that option.

When installing more than one server, additional power distribution devices may be
required to safely provide power to all devices. Observe the following guidelines:
• The power load must be balanced between available AC supply branch circuits.
• The overall system AC current load must not exceed 80 percent of the branch
circuit AC current rating.
Grounding Requirements
For proper operation and safety, the server must be properly grounded. In the United
States, install the equipment in accordance with NFPA 70, 1999 Edition (National
Electric Code) Article 250, as well as any local and regional building codes. In
Canada, install the equipment in accordance with Canadian Standards Association,
CSA C22.1, Canadian Electrical Code. In all other countries, the installation must
follow any regional or national electrical wiring codes, such as the International
Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) 364, parts 1 through 7. Furthermore, ensure that
all power distribution devices used in the installation—such as branch wiring and
receptacles—are listed or certified grounding-type devices.
Because high ground leakage currents associated with multiple servers connected to
the same power source, HP recommends the use of a power distribution unit (PDU)
that is either permanently wired to the building’s branch circuit or includes a
non-detachable cord that is wired to an industrial-style plug. NEMA locking-style
plugs or those complying with IEC 60309 are considered suitable for this purpose.
HP does not recommend using common power outlet strips for this equipment.

Rack Warnings and Cautions
Before installing a rack, carefully review the following warnings and cautions.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or equipment damage, always
ensure that the rack is adequately stabilized before extending a component out
of the rack. Extend only one component at a time. A rack may become
unstable if more than one component is extended for any reason.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or equipment damage,
ensure that:
• The leveling jacks are extended to the floor.
• The full weight of the rack rests on the leveling jacks.
• The stabilizers are attached to the rack for single-rack installation.
• The racks are coupled together in multiple-rack installations.
WARNING: When installing the server in a telco rack, ensure that the rack
frame is adequately secured to the top and bottom of the building structure.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or equipment damage, at
least two people are needed to safely unload the rack from the pallet. An
empty 42U rack can weigh as much as 115 kg (253 lb), can stand more than
2.1 m (7 ft) tall, and may become unstable when moved on its casters.
Never stand in front of the rack when it is rolling down the ramp from the
pallet. Always handle the rack from both sides.
CAUTION: Always begin by mounting the heaviest item on the bottom of the rack.
Continue to populate the rack from the bottom to the top.
Server Warnings and Cautions
Before installing the server, carefully review the following warnings and cautions.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the
drives and the internal system components to cool before touching them.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to the equipment:
• Do not disable the power cord grounding plug. The grounding plug is an
important safety feature.
• Plug the power cord into a grounded (earthed) electrical outlet that is
easily accessible at all times.
• Unplug the power cord from the power supply to disconnect power to the
equipment.
CAUTION: Protect the server from power fluctuations and temporary interruptions
with a regulating uninterruptible power supply (UPS). This device protects the
hardware from damage caused by power surges and voltage spikes and keeps the
system in operation during a power failure.
CAUTION: Do not operate the server for long periods without the access panel.
Operating the server without the access panel results in improper airflow and
improper cooling that can lead to thermal damage.
Server Shipping Contents
Unpack the server box, and locate the materials and documentation for installing the
