HP LH4r HP Netserver LXr 8000 for Compaq 4000/7000 Racks - Page 11

3 Installation This section contains detailed instructions for installing an HP NetServer LXr 8000 in certain models of Compaq rack enclosures. Preparation Before beginning the installation of the NetServer into the rack, you must prepare the rack and the NetServer. Determine the location at which the NetServer is to be installed in the rack enclosure. Mark the bottom and top of this location on the rack columns. The HP NetServer LXr 8000 measures 7 EIA units tall. Marking the Installation Holes First, mark two holes on each of the four columns to use for the rack nuts and screws that hold the slide to the column. When marking the holes, mark the outer surface of the column (see Figure 3-1); on the front columns, this is the column surface facing forward; on the rear columns, this is the surface facing rearward. Use tape or a marker pen to mark the appropriate holes on each column. A rack template which is marked with the appropriate holes is provided with this NetServer. You may use this rack template to show you where to mark the holes on the rack columns, or if you do not use the template, you can simply mark the appropriate holes as indicated in Figure 3-1. (Two templates are provided with this NetServer; use the one marked "Rack System/E and Rack System/U".) To mark the slide mounting holes (refer to Figure 3-1): 1. On the front columns, count up from the top of the unit below, marking the 4th and 6th holes. 2. On the rear columns, count up from the top of the unit below, marking the 4th and 6th holes. 7
