2 Server Unpacking and Installation
Factory Integrated rp54xx Cabinet Installation
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:
a. Open the door.
b. Remove the anti-tip foot by removing and retaining the two (2) 1/2-inch bolts.
c. Remove the two (2) L-brackets (revealed by removing the anti-tip foot).
Factory Integrated rp54xx Cabinet Installation 15
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 oftheir lowground 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 feetfor best
cabinet stability.
16 Server Unpacking and Installation
Receive and Unpack A Non-Integrated Server
WARNING! The typical rp54xx system can weigh up to 68kg (150lbs). HP recommends using an
an approved lifting device. Lift and move the server in accordance with all local safety regulations.
Failure to follow this precaution can cause injury to personnel or damage to equipment.
Unpacking the server
The followingprocedure describes the steps involved in unpackingthe server,whether tofunction
as a stand-alone Deskside unit, or to be integrated into a cabinet.
1. Remove the shipping carton and anti-static bag from the server as depicted below.
NOTE: The packaging for rp74xx and rp54xx servers is the same, rp74xx is shown.
2. If you are moving the server manually, use three people to lift the server from the packing
material and pallet. Carefully move the server to the selected location.
3. If you are moving the server by an approved lifting device (such as Genie Lift ™), remove
the tearflap fromthe frontlip ofthe cartonbottom toallow accessto the server, as illustrated
below. Removal of the tear flap will reveal a slot between the bottom of the server and the
inside bottom of the cardboard box.
Receive and Unpack A Non-Integrated Server 17
4. Carefully raise the lift's platform so that it will slide into the slot located under the center
of the server, but over the top of the pallet.
NOTE: The server's center of gravity will vary with the hardware configuration, but it is
generally located slightly behind the middle of the server.
5. Raise the lifting device platform enough for the server to clear the pallet and packing
materials, as show below.
18 Server Unpacking and Installation
Install Deskside Server
The followingsection describes theinstallation of aserver into a Deskside enclosure forinstallation
in an office environment.
WARNING! The typical rp54xx system can weigh up to 68kg (150lbs). HP recommends using an
approved lifting device.
• Lift and move the server in accordance with all local safety regulations.
• Do not attempt to lift the server by the plastic handles on the top and side covers.
Failure to follow these precautions can cause injury to personnel or damage to equipment.
1. Unpack the server.
2. Unpack the deskside enclosure.
NOTE: Ensure that the positioning spring pins in the enclosure base align with the
alignment holes in the bottom of the server.
3. Position the server on the wheeled enclosure base.
4. Tighten the two captive screws in the enclosure base to secure the server to the base.
5. Position the enclosure cover (outsideskin) over theserver and install andtighten the screws
to secure it to the base.
Install Deskside Server 19
NOTE: The perforations and the lip of the outside skin should be toward the rear of the
server.
WARNING! Stacking rp54xx servers in deskside enclosures is not supported.
Stacking rp54xx servers in deskside enclosures can damage equipment, may cause injury
to personnel, and may void your warranty or service contract.
6. Install the Front Bezel.
7. Locate the two pull-tabs. One pull-tab is longer than the other. The shorter pull-tab is blank
on bothsides. The back of the shorter pull-tab provides a writable surface for Customer use.
8. Locate the plastic bag containing the label sheet (taped to the server).
9. Remove the label containing serial number, base product, processor product, and model
information from the label sheet and apply to the back of the longer pull-tab.
NOTE: Pull-tab and label shown above is for an rp74xx server. rp54xx uses the same style
label and similar pull-tab.
10. Insert the pull-tabs into the front bezel. Install the longer pull-tab in the left side plastic
window in such a way that the rp54xx logo is visible. Install the shorter pull-tab in the right
side plastic window with either surface visible. Refer to the diagram above for pull-tab
locations.
Install Stand-Alone Server in a Cabinet
The following describes how to install the A5556A slide-tray assembly into an approved HP
cabinet in preparation for installing an rp54xx server.
This slide-trayassembly can beinstalled in anHP E-Series cabinetor other HPcabinets approved
for rp54xx system installation. To install the A5556A slide-tray assembly in an approved HP
equipment cabinet, proceed as follows:
20 Server Unpacking and Installation
1. Determine what type of cabinet you are installing the slide-tray assembly into.
a. E-Series cabinets have:
• Parchment white, plastic, sectional, side panels
• Black painted vertical frame posts with a partial return flange.
b. Approved, non-E-Series, cabinets have:
• Single piece metal side panels
• Gray painted verticle frame posts with full return flanges.
2. Note the vertical, rectangular, slots in the return flanges on the vertical mounting posts.
Determine into which of these vertical slots the slide/tray kit will be installed. This is done
by counting down eight rectangular slots from the top of the cabinet or the bottom of the
equipment above.
3. On the front vertical mounting posts only, slide M5 sheet metal nuts onto the posts over the
holes immediately adjacent to the vertical slots determined in the previous step. Also place
M5 sheet metal nuts on the holes directly above these. Orient the sheet metal nuts so that
the threaded portion faces towards the outside of the cabinet. There should now be a total
of four (4) sheet metal nuts installed.
4. If the cabinet is a non-E-Series cabinet, discard the left hand and right hand aluminum
spacers and two of the M5 x 16 screws with cress-cup washers and proceed to step 12.
5. If the cabinet is an E-Series cabinet, place the hook of the aluminum spacer marked "L"
(5183-1864) into the appropriate vertical, rectangular slot on the front, left hand mounting
Install Stand-Alone Server in a Cabinet 21
post. The hook points downward. Similarly, place the spacer marked "R" (5183-1863) into
the appropriate slot on the right hand mounting post.
6. Use one M5 x 16 screw with cress-cup washer to attach each spacer to its vertical post. Do
this by inserting the screw through the top hole in the spacer, through the mounting rail
and tightening it into the sheet metal nut located at that position.
7. Take the lefthand slide/bracket assembly (marked337079-1L) and install it intothe left hand
vertical mounting posts. This is done by inserting the pin at the rear of the slide's mounting
bracket into the 23rd hole in the rear vertical mounting post and inserting the hook at the
front of the bracket into the vertical, rectangular slot in the aluminum spacer. The slide
should be positioned in the cabinet so that it is horizontal and level.
8. Securely fasten the rear of the slide's mounting bracket to the rear vertical mounting post
by installing and tightening two of the M5 x16 screws with cress-cup washers thorough the
mounting post, through the slides mounting bracket and into the threaded nuts attached to
the mounting bracket.
9. Fully extend the slide so that it is locked in the fully open position.
22 Server Unpacking and Installation
10. Use an M5 x 30 screw with a cress cup washer to attach the front of the slide to the vertical
mounting post. Insert the screw through the slide, through the center hole of the aluminum
spacer, through the vertical mounting post, and tighten into the sheet metal nut located at
that position.
11. Usea procedure similarto steps 7 through 10 to install theright handslide/bracket assembly
(marked 337079-1R) and then proceed to step 12.
12. Take the trayand place it onto the pins that extend from the slides' inner members. The slots
with wide lead-in guides on the side of the tray fit down onto the slides' pins. The flat part
of the tray will be on top, and the mounting holes in the top of the tray will be located to
the right of the center of the tray. Slide the tray all the way down on both sides so that the
pins reach the top of the slots in the side of the tray.
Install Stand-Alone Server in a Cabinet 23
13. Use six, M5 x 12 screws (without washers) to attach the tray to the slides. Three screws are
used to attach each slide. Insert the screws through the slides, through the tray and tighten
into the threaded nuts located on the inside of the sides of the tray.
14. From the bottom of the tray pull the plunger pin down and give it a 1/4 turn to hold it in

Identifying Static Rail Kit
Hewlett-Packard has currently approved two static rail kits for use in cabinet mounting the
rp54xx server. They are illustrated below.
Installing Stationary Rails
The installation of stationary rails is similar for most cabinet and rail combinations.
The key considerations to are:
• Ensure that all safety precautions are read, understood, and observed
• Follow all installation instructions provided with the cabinet and rail kits, and
• Ensure that the rails extend out from the cabinet posts sufficiently to properly and safely
support the equipment being installed.
To install an rp54xx server on stationary rails in an approved cabinet proceed as follows:
26 Server Unpacking and Installation
1. Locate the rail mounting height in the cabinet. Allow for the following space requirements:
• For each rp54xx server, allow 31.8cm (12.5 inches)vertically (7 EIAs or Rack Units (RUs).
• If installing the A5575A rail kit, allow an additional vertical 4.45cm (1.75 inches (1 EIA)
each set of rails.
2. Install sheet metal nut(s) in the vertical cabinet posts at the required height for the kit being
installed:
• Install the first nut either:
— 4.45 cm (1.75 Inches) above the top, or
— 31.8 cm (12.5 inches) below the bottom of the last server.
• If installing a A5562A rail kit, install the second nut in the next frame hole below the
first.
3. Hold the rail in place and insert and tighten the screws.
For installation of other qualified cabinet and rail combinations refer to the safety precautions
and instructions accompanying them.

3 Installing Additional Components
Additional Components
Some internal components are too delicate to be installed in the server prior to shipping. These
internal componentsare shipped withthe server, butare packed separately. They can be installed
after the cabinet has been unpacked and positioned.
Some ofthe internal components that are packed separately are not user-installable. To maintain
warranty validation, these items must be installed by a Hewlett-Packard Customer Engineer.
If you received either (or both) of the components listed below, contact your Hewlett-Packard
provider to arrange for installation.
• Central Processing Units (CPUs)
• Power Distribution Units (PDUs)
Installing Memory
Memory Configuration Rules
rp54xx servers have 16slots (8DIMM pairs) for memory DIMMs. These slots arenumbered 0a/b,
1a/b,... 7a/b. 8 of these slots (4a/b - 7a/b) are disabledon rp5400 servers. rp5450 servers canaccess
all slots. rp5400 and rp5450 servers have DIMM slots located on the System Board.
rp5470 servers install DIMMs using Memory Carriers. The Memory Carriers fit into slots on the
System Board.
The following rules govern the installation of memory DIMMs for rp5400, rp5450, and rp5470
servers:
• Memory must be installed in DIMM pairs.
• The capacity of DIMMs within a pair must be the same.
• Install DIMMs with the greatest capacity in the lowest slot numbers.
• Install DIMMs the following slot order: 0a/b, 1a/b, 2a/b, 3a/b, and so on.
Installing rp5400 and/or rp5450 DIMMs
1. Power down and unplug the rp54xx server.
CAUTION: DC voltages are present when the server is connected to AC power. Do not
install or service rp54xx internalcomponents while DC voltage is present. Failure toobserve
this precaution can result in damage to the server.
2. Loosen the captive T-15 screws that holdthe top cover in place, then grasp the strap handle,
raise the cover slightly, and pull the cover toward the front of the server to free the cover
tabs from the slots in the chassis. The air baffle will be exposed.

3. Make the top of the server accessible for service.
4. Loosen the captive T-15 screws on the air baffle. Grasp the two handles on the baffle, and
lift the baffle remove it.
CAUTION: Observe all ElectroStatic Discharge (ESD) precautions Do not touch internal
components. Failure to observe ESD precautions can cause damage to components.
5. Observe Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) precautions.
6. Refer to the following graphic for memory slot locations.
Locate the correct DIMM pair slots. Insert the DIMM connectors into the guides until the
card snaps firmly in place. It may be necessary to apply downward force using the palm of
your hand on the DIMM. Observe the top of the DIMM to make sure one side is not higher
than the other.
NOTE: It may be necessary to remove PSM 1 when installing a DIMM in slot 0a and PSM
0 when installing a DIMM in slot 1b. If either PSM is removed to install memory, ensure it
is re-installed.
7. Replace the air baffle. Tighten the four captive screws to secure the air baffle in place.
