7 Mounting the Server in the Rack Planning This chapter tells how to mount the HP NetServer LXr Pro8 in a rack. Before doing so, however, you should plan the HP NetServer's location in the rack relative to other rack components. Proper placement is vital both for safety and operating efficiency. For more details, see the HP NetServer Rack Installation Road Map and the HP NetServer Rack Assembly and Cabling Reference Guide. The HP NetServer LXr Pro8 rack mount kit fits into HP 19-inch-wide EIA (Electrical Industry Association) racks. Vertical space in these racks is measured in standard EIA units. One EIA unit is 1.75 inches (44.45 mm). The rack mount kit requires 10 EIA units of space. The kit includes the following: • screws and connectors • mounting rails NOTE Mounting the HP NetServer in its rack may or may not be the final step in the installation procedure. If the HP NetServer is completely configured by the vendor before delivery to the customer, then mounting the HP NetServer in the rack may be the last step. If the vendor configures the HP NetServer at the customer's site, installation of the network operating system and other software may occur after the HP NetServer is mounted in the rack. CAUTION The satellite and base chassis combined weigh over 160 pounds. To avoid accidents, remove the satellite chassis from the base chassis and remove the power supplies from the front of the base chassis. Then mount the base chassis in the rack. Replace the satellite and the power supplies only after the base chassis is fixed in place. 57
