As a result, Compaq addresses environmental, thermal, mechanical, power, installation, and service considerations for the server and rackspecific options. While Compaq 9000 and 7000 series racks are ideal for these ultra-dense servers, Compaq recognizes that customers may want to plan and implement deployments using third-party racks. This document describes deployments involving the ProLiant DL320 and ProLiant DL360 servers and the Compaq Third-Party Rack Option Kit. Compaq provides hardware, specifications, and guidelines for deployment schemes using third-party racks as a service to its customers.
