Extend a Server From the Rack
rp24xx servers are available in three configurations: rack-mounted, stacked, or stand-alone. Access to servers
mounted in an HP-supported rack is covered in this section.
Ensure that there is enough area (Approximately 82 centimeters (32 in.) to fully extend the
NOTE
server out the front and work on it.
WARNING
Ensure that all anti-tip features (front anti-tip feet installed; adequate ballast
properly placed, etc.) are employed prior to extending the server.
To extend the server, perform the following steps:
Step 1. Remove the front Bezel.
Step 2. Remove the four T-25 screws that fasten each side of the server to the rack.
WARNING
Step 3. Grasp the server chassis and slowly pull forward. The server is fully extended when the rail clips
are locked in place.
The following graphic shows the server extended and indicates the rail clip location.
Chapter
DO NOT press the rail clips after they reach the stops. Defeating this safety
feature when the server is fully extended will cause it to be pulled
completely off the rails. Servers weigh approximately 50 lbs each and
failure to observe this precaution can cause serious injury and/or
equipment damage.
