Server Warnings
Adhere to the following guidelines when servicing or installing an HP server:
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to the equipment:
• Unplug the power cord from the system.
• Do not disable the power cord grounding plug. The grounding plug is an
important safety feature.
• Plug the power cord into a grounded (earthed) electrical outlet that is easily
accessible at all times.
CAUTION: To properly ventilate the system, provide at least 7.6 cm (3 in) of
clearance at the front and back of the computer.
CAUTION: The system is designed to be electrically grounded. To ensure proper
operation, plug the AC power cord only into a properly grounded (earthed) AC outlet.
Rack Warnings
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment:
• Do not attempt to move or relocate an equipment rack populated with
servers. A fully populated rack can weigh as much as 771 kg (1,700 lb). The
rack mi
g
ht become unstable and cause serious personal in
j
ur
y
or equipment
damage.
• Before installing the servers, extend the leveling jacks to the floor and rest
the full weight of the rack on the leveling jacks. Either install the stabilizer
kit or couple multiple racks together for stability.
• Always load the heaviest item first and load the rack from the bottom to the
top. Loading in this manner makes the rack “bottom-heavy” and helps
prevent the rack from becoming unstable.
• Extend only one server at a time. A rack might become unstable if more
than one server is fully extended for any reason.
CAUTION: Do not overload the AC supply branch circuit that provides power to the
rack.
Note: Sliderails, power distribution units (PDUs), power cords, and cables can be preinstalled
into the rack in a build room or on the data center floor before moving the rack to its final
ocation. l
