Chapter 7 Mounting the Server in the Rack Precautions Always keep the following safety and environmental issues in mind, especially if you install the HP NetServer in a non-HP rack environment: • Maximum Recommended Ambient Temperature. The maximum recommended ambient temperature of the room is 35°C. • Elevated Operating Ambient Temperature. The ambient operating temperature within a closed or multi-unit rack assembly may exceed the room's ambient temperature. Make sure that the temperature within the rack itself does not exceed 35°C. • Reduced Air Flow. As you mount equipment in the rack, make sure that you allow enough air flow for safe operation of the equipment. • Mechanical Loading. Uneven mechanical loading within the rack can cause hazardous conditions. Plan the placement of equipment in the rack to make sure that this problem does not occur. Mount the heaviest components in the bottom of the rack. • Circuit Overloading. Make sure that the total configuration of equipment in the rack does not overload the supply circuit. To this end, check the nameplate ratings on all equipment. Consider the effect of circuit overloading on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. • Reliable Earthing (Grounding). Maintain reliable earthing of rackmounted equipment. Give particular attention to supply connections that are not direct connections to the branch circuit: the use of power strips, for example. Tools Required To assemble the rack mount kit and install the HP NetServer on it, you need these tools. • T-25 Torx Driver • Number 2 Phillips screwdriver The HP NetServer Rack Installation Tool Kit includes a multi-tipped screwdriver with Torx and Phillips heads. 58

Always keep the following safety and environmental issues in mind, especially if
you install the HP NetServer in a non-HP rack environment:
Maximum Recommended Ambient Temperature.
The maximum
recommended ambient temperature of the room is 35
°
C.
Elevated Operating Ambient Temperature.
The ambient operating
temperature within a closed or multi-unit rack assembly may exceed the
