2. Installing the rail kits and mounting the system in a rack
Important safety information
CAUTION:
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can damage the electronic components. Ensure that you are properly
grounded (earthed) before beginning any installation procedure.
Installation Guidelines
This installation must be performed by qualified individuals having knowledge of the procedures, precautions,
and equipment hazards that contains hazardous electrical circuits.
6 2. Installing the rail kits and mounting the system in a rack

WARNING:
• The rail kits, when installed, form only a shelf for the StoreEasy 1X60 to rest on. The StoreEasy
1X60 is not attached to the rail by any other means. Use extreme caution when pulling the
StoreEasy 1X60 out from the rack. The storage system can slip and fall, which may cause damage
or injury to the StoreEasy 1X60 Storage. HPE is not responsible for any damage or injury caused by
mishandling of StoreEasy 1X60.
• Ensure that the rack is leveled and stable before working on the rack. The leveling jacks (feet) must
extend to the floor and the full weight of the rack must rest firmly on the floor.
• Ensure that the rack has anti-tip measures such as, floor-bolting, anti-tip feet, ballast, or a
combination of the measures, as specified by the rack manufacturer and applicable codes in place.
• Ensure that sufficient personnel are available to support one or more products during the installation
process. HPE recommends you to use an appropriate lifting device as an installation aid.
• Ensure that the rack is loaded from bottom to top, with the heaviest appliances at the bottom to make
the rack steady.
• Avoid overloading the branch circuit that provides power to the rack. The total rack load must not
exceed 80 percent of the branch circuit rating.
Installation
1. Install the rail kits.
For detailed instructions on installing the HPE rack rails into square and round hole racks for HPE 2U
Storage system, refer HPE Rack Rail Kit installation instructions document, that is part of the shipped rail
kit.
2. Slide the StoreEasy 1X60 into the position on the rails as shown in Figure 1.

6. Connect all power cords to the facility power source.
3. Cabling the StoreEasy system to the network
The iLO network port is used to remotely manage the StoreEasy 1X60 hardware and allows administrators to
launch a remote console session to the system. HPE recommends that you connect the iLO port to your
management network. The iLO port is preconfigured to obtain an IP address through DHCP. If your
environment does not support DHCP, use a KVM and configure iLO to use a static IP address. For
instructions, see HPE StoreEasy 1X60 Storage System Administrator Guide available at
https://support.hpe.com/hpesc/public/home/documentHome?sp4ts.oid=1008632547.
The 4 x 1GbE network ports are used for the storage network and to connect the system to infrastructure
services such as, Active Directory, DNS, NTP, etc. The ports can be configured as segregated network ports
or a network team. Ensure that your switch is prepared for either configuration.
