HP Products. Follow the steps in this installation guide to determine where and how to install the
server into the rack.
The following are additional instructions for installing the server into the rack:
1.
The cable management arm (CMA) is factory configured to mount on the left side of the server
as viewed from the rear of the chassis. You must switch the CMA to a right-mount configuration.
Mount the CMA on the right side of the server to ensure easy removal of the power supplies.
2.
Remove two T25 screws from the server bezel; one screw from the same location on each
side of the server. The screws are located behind the pull handles.
Non-HP Rack
The Guide for Evaluating the Installation of HP Equipment in Non-HP Racks enables you to evaluate
the installation of HP equipment into non-HP racks. Use this guide when you need to qualify whether
you can install, maintain, and service any HP equipment in a non-HP rack.
The Guide for Evaluating the Installation of HP Equipment in Non-HP Racks is located on the web

Installing the Server into a Pedestal Mount
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 Server Rackless
Mount Kit. The rackless mount kit comes with the HP Integrity rx6600 Rack to Pedestal Conversion
Guide. Follow the steps in the HP Integrity rx6600 Rack to Pedestal Conversion Guide to attach
the pedestal mount to the server.
Connecting the Cables
This section provides information on the cables that power the server and provide LAN connectivity
for the server.
AC Input Power
The server can receive AC input from two different AC power sources. If two separate power
sources are available, you can plug the server into the separate power sources, increasing system
reliability if one power source fails. The power receptacles are located at the rear of the chassis.
They are labeled PWR 0 and PWR 1.
You can install a maximum of two bulk power supplies (BPS) in the server. Installing two BPSs in
the server provides 1+1 redundancy, meaning that if one BPS fails, there is still enough power
supplied to the server for it to remain operational. You must promptly replace the failed BPS to
restore 1+1 functionality.
A minimum of one BPS is required to power the server. There is no 1+1 capability if only one BPS
is present.
Power States
The server has three power states:
•
Standby power
•
Full power
•
Off
Plug the power cord into the appropriate receptacle on the rear of the chassis to achieve the
standby power state; the front panel Power button is not turned on. Full power occurs when the
power cord is plugged into the appropriate receptacle, and either the power is activated through
