Rack documentation CD The Documentation CD shipped with the rack provides documentation for installing and optimizing the rack. Rack deployment considerations The following sections describe the components and HP options available for the 10000 and 10000 G2 Series racks that may be necessary to achieve safety, regulatory compliance, or functionality requirements. Levels of rack security Either of the following conditions may be necessary for compliance with certain safety certifications: • Racks must be located in a restricted access area that is only accessible to trained personnel. -Or• Racks must be configured with lockable hardware. HP rack front doors, rear doors, and side panels support this locking requirement. Rear split doors are standard on 10000 and 10000 G2 Series racks. (The 10000 Series rack Model S10614 is not configured with split rear doors). HP 10000 G2 Series rack front doors All 10000 and 10000 G2 Series rack Models ship with front doors. The 42U and 36U front doors (and necessary hardware) are available as option kits are backwards compatible with the 10000 Series racks of the same heights; this enables customers to have all racks standardized with the same updated look, if desired. NOTE The front door option kit is not compatible with the 9000 Series racks. HP 10000 G2 Series rack rear doors All 10000 and 10000 G2 Series rack models ship with rear doors as part of the standard configuration. The 10000 G2 rear door has been upgraded to provide a more ergonomically and cosmetically pleasing handle. HP Side Panel Option Kit Side panels aid in providing proper front to rear airflow and a first level of security. 10000 Series rack Models S10614 and 10622 ship with side panels installed. Side Panel Option kits are available for all other rack models. Stabilization requirements Rack stability is of special concern when equipment is routinely installed, removed, or accessed within the rack. Stability is addressed through the use of leveling feet, baying kits, fixed stabilizers, and/or ballast. Leveling feet Leveling feet are adjustable stabilizers that provide leveling of the rack at the installation site and ship installed to the racks. HP 10000 and 10000 G2 Series racks ship with leveling pads for stabilization; these parts are found in the hardware kit - also shipped with each rack. 8
