Step 1: Attaching Rack Nuts to the Rack

CAUTION If other rack components are to be mounted in the rack below
the HP NetServer, install those components before starting to
mount the server.
NOTE
Use the HP Rack Assistant software to determine where in the
rack to mount the HP NetServer.
In this step, you attach rack nuts to the front and rear columns of the HP
System/E or HP System/U rack. Some of these nuts will hold the server's slide in
place. Others will fasten the front of the server to the rack.
A cardboard rack-mounting template comes with the HP NetServer. This
template shows you where to mount the nuts on the rack.
1. Find the rack-mounting template. If your HP NetServer is still in its box,
the template should be in the accessories tray that sits on top of the server
itself.
2. Hold the template alongside the outside face (the front) of one of the front
rack columns. Line up the template with the same rack space that the
server will occupy. (The template covers an area 7 EIA units high, the
same height the server requires.)
