Warning: The MSA20 disk array
weighs 24 kg (53 lb) full. At least two
people are required to lift and rack mount
the disk array.
Warning: To reduce the risk of personal
injury or damage to the equipment, before
installing equipment be sure that:
• The rack 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: Make sure that the rack and all
equipment mounted in the rack has a
reliable ground connection. Verify that the
total current of the rack components does
not exceed the current rating of the power
distribution unit or outlet receptacles.
Caution: Parts can be damaged by
electrostatic discharge. Keep parts in their
containers until needed. Ensure that you
are properly grounded when touching
static sensitive components.
Rack requirements:
HP supports the HP System E racks and the
HP 10000 Series racks for use with the virtual
library system (VLS). Other racks might also be
suitable, but have not been tested with the VLS.
