About this guide
Rack options installation guide

This installation guide includes the instructions for installing rack option kits that are compatible with the HP
10000 G2 Series Rack.
For more information, see the HP 10000 G2 Series Rack User Guide on the HP website
(http://www.hp.com/go/rackandpower).
Important safety information

WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment, be sure that:
• The rear leveling feet are extended to the floor.
• The full weight of the rack rests on the rear leveling feet and front stabilizer feet.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the rack and equipment, the
racks must be positioned and secured together according to these instructions. Failure to do so
could result in an unstable installation.
WARNING: Components can be very heavy. To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to
the equipment:
• Remove all pluggable power supplies and modules to reduce the weight of the product before
lifting it.
• Observe local occupational health and safety requirements and guidelines for manual
material handling.
• Get help to lift and stabilize the product during installation or removal, especially when the
product is not fastened to the rails. When the component weighs more than 22.5 kg (50 lb),
at least two people must lift the component into the rack together. If the component is loaded
into the rack above chest level, a third person must assist in aligning the rails while the other
two support the component.
• Use caution when installing the component in or removing the component from the rack; it is
unstable when not fastened to the rails.
Additional rack considerations

Consider the following specifications and components, with regard to your specific rack configuration:
• Power—If a UPS is installed, do not exceed its output rating. Be sure to review the installation
instructions provided with each component for important cautions and warnings.
• PDUs—Install PDUs before installing other components.
• Height—The height of the rack and of rack-mountable components is measured in U increments, where
U = 4.5 cm (1.75 in). When you are configuring your rack installation, remember that the total U
measurement of the components you want to install cannot exceed the stated U height of the rack.
About this guide 7

• Keyboard—The rack keyboard requires installation of a 1U keyboard drawer rack option kit.
• Monitor—The monitor requires installation of a monitor/utility shelf rack option kit unless you are using
a rack-mountable flat-panel monitor.
• Server console switch—If a console switch is configured, use the CPU-to-console switch cable included
with the server. The standard distance between the console switch and the keyboard, monitor, and
mouse can vary by 3-, 7-, 12-, 20-, and 40-ft lengths.
NOTE: National electrical regulations governing the installation of building wiring require that
an appropriate cable, meeting fire-safety standards, must be used any time cabling is routed:
• Through an overhead drop-ceiling
• Under raised flooring
• From room to room
• From floor to floor
Be sure that the cable jacket or sleeving is made of material that does not burn easily and does not
exude toxic fumes when exposed to heat. Be sure that the cable you have selected is appropriate
for your installation site. If you require a U.S. plenum-rated (CL2P) cable, contact your local HP
authorized reseller to obtain any of the following options:
• 149363-B21-20-foot plenum cable
• 149364-B21-40-foot plenum cable
• Rack baying option kits—The number of baying kits needed to join a series of racks is one less than the
number of racks in the suite. Each baying kit supplies parts to bay two cabinets on 600 mm (24 in)
center line spacing.
• Side panels—Only one set of side panels is required for each row of bayed racks.
• Stabilizer kit—A stabilizer kit is either required or recommended, depending on your rack
configuration. There are four stabilizer kit options.
o The standard 600-mm (23.6 in) or 800-mm (31.5 in) front foot is required with deployments of
stand-alone racks. Rack rows with four or more bayed racks, without a single rack-mountable
component exceeding 99.8 kg (220 lb), do not need a stabilizer kit installed.
o The heavy duty 600-mm (23.6 in) or 800-mm (31.5 in) front foot is required when a single
rack-mountable component weighing 99.8 kg (220 lb) or more is installed in a stand-alone rack or
in a rack belonging to a rack row of three or fewer bayed racks.

The HP 10000 G2 Rack Air Duct kit removes warm air from the rack by channeling the warm air into the data
center ceiling return air plenum. The air duct sits on top of the rack, directly joined to the ceiling plenum,
preventing the warm air from entering the data center aisle.
Three kits support this product.

Electrostatic discharge
Preventing electrostatic discharge

To prevent damaging the system, be aware of the precautions you need to follow when setting up the system
or handling parts. A discharge of static electricity from a finger or other conductor may damage system
boards or other static-sensitive devices. This type of damage may reduce the life expectancy of the device.
To prevent electrostatic damage:
• Avoid hand contact by transporting and storing products in static-safe containers.
• Keep electrostatic-sensitive parts in their containers until they arrive at static-free workstations.
• Place parts on a grounded surface before removing them from their containers.
• Avoid touching pins, leads, or circuitry.
• Always be properly grounded when touching a static-sensitive component or assembly.
Grounding methods to prevent electrostatic discharge

Several methods are used for grounding. Use one or more of the following methods when handling or
installing electrostatic-sensitive parts:
• Use a wrist strap connected by a ground cord to a grounded workstation or computer chassis. Wrist
straps are flexible straps with a minimum of 1 megohm ±10 percent resistance in the ground cords. To
provide proper ground, wear the strap snug against the skin.
• Use heel straps, toe straps, or boot straps at standing workstations. Wear the straps on both feet when
standing on conductive floors or dissipating floor mats.
• Use conductive field service tools.
• Use a portable field service kit with a folding static-dissipating work mat.
If you do not have any of the suggested equipment for proper grounding, have an authorized reseller install
the part.
For more information on static electricity or assistance with product installation, contact an authorized
reseller.
