Planning the Server Installation The resource information on this CD enables you to view, search, and print documentation for Compaq branded racks and rack options. It also helps you set up and optimize your new Compaq branded rack in a manner that best fits your environment. Rack Warnings Before installing your rack, be sure you understand the following warnings: WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or equipment damage, always be sure that the rack is adequately stabilized before extending a component outside the rack. A rack may become unstable if more than one component is extended for any reason. Extend only one component at a time. WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or equipment damage, be sure that: • The leveling jacks are extended to the floor. • The full weight of the rack rests on the leveling jacks. • The stabilizers are attached to the rack for single-rack installation. • The racks are coupled in multiple-rack installations. WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or equipment damage, at least two people are needed to safely unload the rack from the pallet. An empty 42U rack can weigh as much as 115 kg (253 lb), can stand more than 2.1 m (7 ft) tall, and may become unstable when being moved on its casters. Never stand in front of the rack when it is rolling down the ramp from the pallet; always handle the rack from both sides. WARNING: Always begin by mounting the heaviest item on the bottom of the rack. Continue to populate the rack from the bottom to the top.
