Chapter 2 2-1 REMOVAL AND REPLACEMENT PROCEDURES This guide provides detailed maintenance and service information for the Compaq ProLiant 4500R Rack-Mountable Server. RACK MOUNTABLE PRODUCTS SERVICE GUIDELINES Follow these guidelines when removing or replacing components. WARNING: Before loading any components in the rack, be sure that the rack leveling feet are extended to the floor, that the rack is stable and level, and that the full weight of the rack rests evenly on the leveling feet, not on the casters. Be sure that you have either attached the stabilizing feet or coupled multiple racks. WARNING: Always ensure that the rack is adequately stabilized before extending a component outside the rack, and extend only one component at a time. A rack may become unstable if more than one component is extended for any reason. WARNING: Be careful when pressing the component rail latches on both sides of the component. Pressing the latches in at the same time while sliding the component in on its rails, could pinch your fingers in the latch. n Allow a minimum clearance of 30 inches between the wall and the rack to provide adequate access. n Load the heaviest components first, and load the rack from the bottom up. Refer to the Rack Builder software to provide optimal installation order. n Ensure that the rails are properly aligned. Push the component completely into the rack and secure it in place with the four thumb screws on the component face plate before working on the next component. n Make sure the previously installed component is secured to the rack by its thumb screws; then install the next component.
