The HP Warranty does not cover damage due to improper installation. Observe the precautions listed in this section to maintain HP NetServer reliability. Always follow these safety and environmental rules when installing an HP NetServer in a third-party rack enclosure: • The maximum recommended ambient operating temperature for the server is 35o C. This ambient operating temperature must not be exceeded either in the server room or inside the multi-unit rack enclosure. • The airflow through the rack must be sufficient for safe operation. • Uneven mechanical loading of servers in the rack can cause the rack to tip. Plan the placement of equipment in the rack. Mount the heaviest components in the bottom of the rack, and mount all components as low in the rack as is practical. • Make sure that the total equipment configuration in a rack does not overloads the power supply circuit. Check the power ratings on the nameplates of all equipment. Consider the effect of circuit overloading on the overcurrent protection and supply wiring. 1
