Location Discovery kit
About this device
HP provides built-in location awareness in the new ProLiant servers, a capability that works hand-in-hand with
technology in the HP Advanced Series Racks and Enterprise Series Racks. Together these technologies
provide the rack identification number and precise U location of the servers. This information is
communicated through SIM, ICPM, and HP iPDUs.

Precautions
WARNING:
A risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment exists. Before installing the
LDS modules in a populated rack, be sure that the rack is stabilized in accordance with all product
and rack warnings. When installing the modules, you must partially extend one or more rack
mounted devices (up to 8U of devices) at a time. Only single devices that are mounted on slide
rails are intended to be fully extended from the rack and remain in a safe and upright position.
To reduce the risk of personal injury, damage to the equipment, or rack instability:
•
Do not extend more devices than necessary to install a single 7U or 8U module. To prevent the
rack from becoming unstable, do not extend any device more than 9 cm (3.5 in) from the rack.
•
If a device is mounted on non-slide, static rails and it must be extended more than 9 cm (3.5
in), remove the device completely from the rack. For more information about removing the
device from the rack, see the device installation instructions.
•
If a device is secured to the rack and not mounted on rails, remove the device completely from
the rack.
