Inspecting the Shipment
1 Introduction
The HP 9000 D2xx and D3xx Class Enterprise servers can be mounted into a cabinet to consolidate the pieces of the core system. The cabinet is available in a 1.6 meter (63.8 inches) size. The cabinet is offered as a factory integrated cabinet (A3764A) with one to four D Class computers mounted, or a field integrated (A3765A) cabinet with no computers mounted by the factory. Both cabinets have a usable depth of 0.905 meter (35.6 inches). The cabinets have mounting columns that comply with EIA standard 23 inch mounting flanges.
Inspecting the Shipment
When the shipment arrives, make sure the cabinet has been received as specified by the carrier's bill of lading. Inspect the shipping container for evidence of mishandling during transit. If the container is damaged or water-stained, ask that the carrier's agent be present when the cabinet is unpacked. Refer to the instructions described in the Claims Procedure section. If everything appears to be in satisfactory condition, proceed with the unpacking instructions.
NOTE Do not discard or destroy the shipping container or the packaging material. If
it becomes necessary to repackage the cabinet, these items will be needed. HP also suggests that you keep this manual, in case you later have to repackage the cabinet for shipment.
Claims Procedure
If the shipment is incomplete or if the equipment is damaged or fails to meet specifications, notify the nearest Hewlett-Packard Sales and Support Office. If damage occurred in transit, notify the carrier as well. Hewlett-Packard will arrange for replacement or repair without waiting for settlement of claims against the carrier. If the shipment was damaged in transit, keep the shipping containers and packaging material for inspection.

2 Unpacking and Installation
This chapter describes how to unpack the A3764A or A3765A cabinet assembly. Both cabinets are shipped on a pallet. The instructions for unpacking are the same for both the A3764A and A3765A cabinet.
It is the customer's responsibility to inspect the shipping package for shipping damage. It is not the customers responsibility to remove the cabinet assembly from the shipping pallet.
NOTE Do not discard or destroy the shipping container or the packaging material. If
it becomes necessary to repackage the cabinet, these items will be needed. HP also suggests that you keep this manual, in case you later have to repackage the cabinet for shipment.
Unpacking the Cabinet Assembly
All cabinet types are packaged the same way. Be sure to read the unpacking instructions before proceeding.
WARNING A fully configured 1.6 meter cabinet (A1897A) can weight up to
approximately 441 kg (980 lbs). Be very careful when unpacking the cabinet.
To unpack an A series cabinet, perform the following steps:
1. Cut the plastic polystrap bands around the shipping container.
WARNING Wear protective glasses while cutting the plastic bands around the
shipping container. These bands are under tension. When cut, they can spring back and cause serious eye injury.
2. Lift the cardboard top cap off of the shipping box. See Figure 2-1.

3 Cabinet Operation
Once you have the computer system installed in the rack mount cabinet and all the peripherals connected, you are ready to turn on the system. The power up sequence for the computer in the cabinet is controlled by the ON/OFF switch on the cabinet, unless you have installed a PowerTrust UPS.
Turning On the Computer System (Without UPS)
When turning on the computer in the cabinet, remember that includes all the components mounted in the cabinet turn on at the same time (if the component ON/OFF switches are in the ON position). The basic steps for the power up sequence are listed below, refer to the documentation that comes with the computer for specific details concerning the operating system software for your computer.
CAUTION Ensure external power connection matches voltage setting of all products in
this cabinet.
1. Turn on all the external equipment connected to the computer first.
2. Check all READY or ONLINE indicators on the external equipment to be sure that they are powered up and ready.
NOTE If any of the external equipment has been OFF due to any environmental
problem, such as heating or air conditioning failure, or outside storage conditions (such as a loading dock) allow approximately 30 minutes for the temperature of the equipment to stabilize before turning on the computer.
3. Be sure all the ON/OFF switches, of the components mounted in the cabinet, are in the ON position.
4. When all external equipment indicate READY or ONLINE, put the cabinet ON/OFF switch in the ON position. All components mounted in the cabinet are going to power up at the same time.
NOTE If there are multiple HP D Class computers mounted in the cabinet, you may
want to power each one up separately. This would reduce the power surge through the cabinet PDU if all computers and equipment try to power up at the same time.

5 Computer Access
Computers mounted in the A3764A or A3865A cabinet can only be accessed one at a time. This is a safety feature to avoid cabinet instability if to many heavy components are extended at the same time. Each shelf assembly can accommodate two D Class computers. The cabinets can accommodate two shelf assemblies, providing cabinet space to mount up to four D Class computers. To access a computer mounted in the A3764A or A3765A cabinet perform the steps listed in the Access Procedure section.
Required Tools
Before beginning the installation process, make sure you have the necessary tools.
• Standard CE hand tools (including Torx-drive set).
Access Procedures
Before performing any service or modifications to a computer, be sure the computer has been backed up. Only one computer can be accessed at a time, this includes upper to lower mounted computers. Also, if the computer needs to be removed from the cabinet, refer to the removal procedures listed in Chapter 4.
WARNING If the cabinet you are working has the two upper computers, plus a
19 inch component lower bay, DO NOT extend lower components at the same time one of the upper computers is extended. This could cause a stability problem with the cabinet.
1. Turn off the computer to be accessed.
2. Remove the cosmetic frame (upper or lower) by removing the four mounting screws and nylon washers.
3. Move the lockout slide away from the access computer. If it is a lower computer, you have to slide the safety rod up, then while holding the safety rod up, move the lockout slide. This locks out the upper computers while accessing the lower computers.
CAUTION Be careful of cables connected to the back of the computer, they may not have
enough slack to allow full extension of the computer. Disconnect any questionable length cables.
