A factory integrated server is one in which the rp54xx Server and associated components are pre-assembled and shipped from the factory already installed in a Hewlett-Packard E-Series cabinet. Factory integrated systems reduce the amount of time required to set-up and begin server operation.

  1. Carefully remove the carton and anti-static bag from the pallet.

  2. Remove the front two (2) L-brackets. Retain the 1/2-inch bolts for later use.

    NOTE: As viewed from the front, one bracket is located on each side at the base of the cabinet near the front.
  3. At the rear of the cabinet:

    1. Open the door.

    2. Remove the anti-tip foot by removing and retaining the two (2) 1/2-inch bolts.

    3. Remove the two (2) L-brackets (revealed by removing the anti-tip foot).

  4. Remove the two ramps from the pallet and carefully place them into the slots at the front of the pallet.

    WARNING! Use extreme care when rolling the racked system down the ramps. A rack containing one rp54xx can weigh up to 418 lbs. Do not stand in front of the ramps when rolling the cabinet off the pallet or injury may occur. All but the smallest configurations require two persons to safely remove the rack from the pallet.

    If anti-tip feet or ballast are not installed or are improperly installed the cabinet can tip. Failure to follow this precaution can cause injury to personnel or damage to equipment.

  5. Straighten the rollers on the cabinet base, if needed, and carefully roll it down the ramps.

    WARNING! After removing the server from the pallet, Do not move the cabinet unless the anti-tip feet are installed! The cabinet can tip if care is not used. Due to their low ground clearance the feet may catch on irregularities on the floor, thresholds, or ramps.

    Do not move the cabinet without first installing the anti-tip feet. The cabinet may tip if moved without the anti-tip feet or ballast installed.

    Do not move the cabinet after installing the anti-tip feet unless they are in the fully-raised position. Once installed, the anti-tip feet must be fully raised to allow ground clearance.

    Because of their low ground clearance, the fully-raised anti-tip feet may need to be removed temporarily to clear some obstacles such as door jambs, ramps, and other large irregularities or obstructions on the floor.

    If you must temporarily remove the anti-tip feet to clear an obstacle, use extreme caution when moving the cabinet. Always reinstall the anti-tip feet as soon as the obstacle has been cleared.

    Lower and secure both the anti-tip feet and the cabinet leveling/stabilizer feet once the cabinet is in place.

    Failure to follow these precautions can result in equipment damage or personal injury.

  6. Install the front and rear anti-tip feet using the 1/2 inch bolts provided. Ensure that the anti-tip feet are installed in the fully up position in the mounting slots. This will provide maximum ground clearance while moving the cabinet to its final position.

  7. Carefully move the cabinet to its installation location.

  8. Lower the anti-tip feet to the fully down position and adjust the cabinet leveling feet for best cabinet stability.
