Chapter 1 Preparation for Cabling the HP NetServer LXr8500 • Determine configurations for and mount the PDU (Power Distribution Unit or Units). Connect the LXr 8500 Data Cables to Peripheral Components • Plan where data connections are to be made. • Attach data cables to the server. Mark the ends of data cables with colored tie-wraps and labels supplied with each server. This simplifies attaching cables later in the procedure. • Provide sufficient cable length to allow servers to be extended from the rack for maintenance. • Attach data cables to their respective components. Cable the LXr 8500 for Power • Connect each component to a Power Distribution Unit (PDU). • Connect each PDU to an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) (optional). • Connect PDU or UPS --if present--cables to Branch Circuits. Managing and Routing Cables • Route cables through the Cable Management Arm and tie-wrap them in place. • Route cables through Cable Guide and tie wrap them in place. Powering Up and Powering Down the Components in the Rack • Follow the power up sequence. See "Power Up Sequence" in Chapter 3. • If it becomes necessary to bring the server power down, follow the "Power Down Considerations" in Chapter 3. 11. Configure the System, Install Doors and Side Panels At this point, refer to the NetServer user or installation manual and configure the system. Install front and rear doors as required, and mount side panels. Look for detailed instructions and illustrations with the rack enclosure and components. 13

Determine configurations for and mount the PDU (Power Distribution Unit
or Units).
Connect the LXr 8500 Data Cables to Peripheral Components
Plan where data connections are to be made.
Attach data cables to the server. Mark the ends of data cables with colored
tie-wraps and labels supplied with each server. This simplifies attaching
cables later in the procedure.
Provide sufficient cable length to allow servers to be extended from the
rack for maintenance.
Attach data cables to their respective components.
Cable the LXr 8500 for Power
Connect each component to a Power Distribution Unit (PDU).
Connect each PDU to an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) (optional).
Connect PDU or UPS --if present--cables to Branch Circuits.
Managing and Routing Cables
Route cables through the Cable Management Arm and tie-wrap them in
place.
Route cables through Cable Guide and tie wrap them in place.
Powering Up and Powering Down the Components in the Rack
Follow the power up sequence. See "Power Up Sequence" in Chapter 3.
If it becomes necessary to bring the server power down, follow the "Power
Down Considerations" in Chapter 3.
