HP StorageWorks MSA System racking instructions Audience assumptions This document is for the person who installs, administers, and troubleshoots servers and storage systems. HP assumes that you are qualified in the servicing and installation of computer equipment and are trained in recognizing hazards in products and hazardous energy levels. * Hanger pins may be preinstalled on the front and rear rail brackets. Rack installation HP recommends installing all enclosures at the bottom of the rack. To optimize cabling access, avoid interleaving the enclosure and server products. Rack planning and resources HP StorageWorks 2000 Modular Smart Array (MSA2000) and HP StorageWorks P2000 G3 MSA Systems support the HP 10000 series of racks. For information about setting up the rack, including the appropriate warnings and cautions, see the documentation that came with the rack. Updated rack information can be downloaded from the HP website http:/ /www.hp.com/products/racks. NOTE: Other racks might also be suitable, but have not been tested.
