Unpacking the Server
Hewlett-Packard shipping containers protect their contents under normal shipping conditions. After the
equipment arrives, carefully inspect each carton for signs of shipping damage. If damage is found, document
the damage with photographs and contact the transport carrier immediately.
If the equipment has any damage, a damage claim form must be obtained from the shipping representative.
The customer should complete the form and return it to the shipping representative.
Unpacking the Server
WARNING Because a filled hp Integrity cx2600 shipping container may weigh as much as 95
pounds (43 kilograms), two people should lift the container together. Do not lift or

Installing the HP Server into a Rack
HP Rack
Any hp Integrity cx2600 Server that is to be installed into a rack is shipped with a mounting kit or equipment
slides. With every mounting kit and slides comes an installation guide. Follow the steps in this installation
guide to determine where and how to place the server into the rack.
Non-HP Rack
There is a guide for evaluating the installation of HP equipment in non-HP racks. This document should be
utilized when there is a need to evaluate and qualify whether any HP equipment can be installed,
maintained, and serviced in a non-HP rack. The guide is located on the Web at:
http://www.hp.com/racksolutions.
Once there, select “mounting information” from the menu on the left side, then select the guide titled
