Hewlett-Packard Site Preparation Services
The following paragraphs outline Hewlett-Packard’s site planning and verification services.
Site Planning Visit
Upon receipt of a purchase order, a Hewlett-Packard Customer Engineer (CE) will make arrangements 
for an on-site meeting with your principal operator and electrician. As a part of this on-site meeting, 
the CE will discuss site planning and preparation needs including electrical, mechanical, and physical 
system requirements. If required, a Hewlett-Packard Site Preparation Specialist Engineer will be 
available for consultation. The forms in Section 2 of the Computer Products Site Preparation Resource 
Guide will be completed at this time.
As a result of this visit, a site layout plan agreeable to you and Hewlett-Packard will be created. All of 
your computer requirements and specifications are contained in either this manual or the Computer 
Products Site Preparation Resource Guide.
Site Verification Visit
A Hewlett-Packard CE or Site Preparation Specialist will verify that your site meets or exceeds your 
computer system’s requirements and specifications prior to and during system installation. Sites failing 
to meet the system requirements and specifications may incur additional service charges.
Hewlett-Packard provides service under the conditions of the Computer Products Warranty & 
Installation Terms, Customer Support Services Agreement, Installation Support Plan, and on a time 
and materials basis. (See Section 1 of the Computer Products Site Preparation Resource Guide.)
Third Party Service
If an HP 3000 9x9/KS or HP 9000 K-Class Enterprise Server and/or applications software is purchased 
from a “third party vendor”, that third party is responsible for providing consultation services on the 
system operation and applications software.
In the situation of a third party purchase, a maintenance agreement for hardware and an Account 
Management Service (AMS) for software are available directly from Hewlett-Packard.
