Installing the server into a 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 website
( http://www.racksolutions.com/hp ). Follow the server-specific instructions on the website to install the rack
brackets.

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. HP recommends that a minimum of two people are required
for all rack server installations. A third person may be required to help align the server if the
server is installed higher than chest level.
•
