General Guidelines
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury, 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 damage to the equipment,
always load the heaviest item first from the bottom of the rack up. This makes
the rack bottom-heavy and helps prevent the rack from becoming unstable.
See Chapter 2, “Configuration Factors,” for more information about the
placement of rack-mountable components.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment,
be sure that:
• The leveling jacks are extended to the floor.
• The full weight of the rack rests on the leveling jacks.
• The stabilizing feet are attached to the rack if it is a single-rack installation.
• The racks are coupled together in multiple-rack installations.
• Only one component is extended at a time. A rack may become unstable if
more than one component is extended for any reason.
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of damage to the equipment when installing
third-party options:
• Be sure that the option equipment installed does not impede airflow to the
rack-mountable ProLiant servers or increase the internal rack temperature
beyond the specified maximum rating.
• Be sure that the option equipment installed does not exceed the Manufacturer’s
Maximum Recommended Ambient Operating Temperature.
