Pedestal kit installation
The server ships with a pedestal mount if you order the rackless configuration option. The pedestal
mount is packaged in a separate carton that is attached to the server carton.
To change the server from a rack-mount to a rackless configuration, you need a pedestal kit. The
pedestal mount kit comes with the Pedestal Kit Installation Guide for HP Integrity rx2800 i2 and
HP Proliant DL380 G6 & DL385 G6 Servers. Follow the steps in this installation guide to attach
the pedestal to the server.
Connecting server cables
AC input power
The server can receive ac input from two different ac power sources. The power receptacles are
located at the rear of the server.
A maximum of two power supplies can be installed in the server. Installing two power supplies in
the server provides 1+1 redundancy, meaning that if one power supply fails, there is still enough
power supplied to the server to operate. You must promptly replace the failed power supply to
restore 1+1 functionality.
All high-line (220 V) configurations are capable of 1+1 redundancy. Low-line (110 V) configurations
can maintain 1+1 redundancy as long as the total power consumed does not exceed 800 W.
A minimum of one power supply is required to power the server. If only one power supply is
installed in the server, there is no 1+1 capability.

CAUTION:
If the server is expected to remain in standby mode for more than 30 minutes, ac
power should be completely removed from the server. You can do this by switching off the circuit
breakers that are part of the building installation, disconnecting or switching off a power distribution
unit, or by physically removing the power cords from the server.
NOTE:
If the power restore feature is set to
Always On
through the iLO 3 MP
PR
command, the
server automatically powers on to the full power state when the power cord is plugged in to the
server.
