hp ProLiant DL320 generation 2 server high-density deployment technical white paper 35 WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, fire, or damage to the equipment: • Extend the leveling jacks to the floor and rest the full weight of the rack on the leveling jacks. • Install either the stabilizer kit or couple multiple racks together for stability. • Load the heaviest item first and load the rack from the bottom to the top. Loading the rack in this manner makes the rack "bottom-heavy" and helps prevent the rack from becoming unstable. • Do not overload the AC supply branch circuit that provides power to the rack. • Extend only one server at a time. A rack might become unstable if more than one server is fully extended for any reason. connecting cables This section discusses connecting and routing cables with different cable management solutions and different console management solutions. in-rack local console To install cables with in-rack local consoles: 1. Connect the cables to each device installed in the rack, working from the bottom to the top. 2. Connect the cables to the bottom piece of equipment. 3. Bundle the cables and route them through the cable management solution. 4. Connect the cables to the console switchbox. 5. Connect the power cord to the PDU. Do not connect the PDU to any power source until all equipment is fully deployed in the rack. Refer to HP ProLiant DL320 Generation 2 Server Setup and Installation Guide for the recommended order for connecting cables. When the cables are properly connected and routed through the cable management solution, the rear door of the rack closes easily over the cables. If the rear door does not close easily, additional space might be required. Install the rack extension or the bustle kit to provide more space for the cables at the rear of the rack.
