D Class System Installation

1. Install Internal Add-on Options

D Class servers are confi gured at the factory to inc lude most I/O cards and interna l peripherals.

If you have any internal ad d-on options, install them now according to th e instructions shipped with the option.

WARNING DO NOT CONNECT SYSTEM POWER CORD AT THIS TIME. If you open

the system cabinet when power is connected, you will be exposed to high-energy (high-amperage) circuits and possible ejection of molten metal. Be sure to remove all rings, watches, and other je welry from fingers, wrists, and arms before opening the system cabinet.

Electrostatic Discharge Precautions

If you are installing additional cards or peripherals, you must ensure that they a re not damaged due to electrostatic discharge (ESD). To prevent such damage from occurring, observe the following ESD precautions when handling and installing boards:

1. Use a grounding mat and an anti-static wris t st rap. These items are included in the ESD Field Service Kit (HP P/N A3024-80004).

2. Wear the anti-static wrist strap to ensure that any accumulated electrostatic charge is disc harged from your body to ground.

3. Keep uninstalled printed-circuit boa rds in their protective anti-static bags until you are ready to instal l them.

4. Handle printed-circuit boa rds by their edges after you have removed them from their protecti ve a nti-static bags.

4. Connect Remote Management Card and Serial Data Cable for the Optional UPS

The Remote Management card (also called the Access Port or AP card) is optional on Model D2xx servers, and standard on Model D3xx servers. The Remote Management c ard is located in dif f erent slots depending on which model of D Class server you have. Also, on Model D2xx servers, the UPS data cable connection will vary depending on whether the optional Remote Management card is present.

Model D2xx 1. If you have a Remote Management card, connect your Line Access Module

(LAM) for connecting to the phone line, to the Modem/LAM connector on the Remote Management ca rd.

2. If you also have a UPS, connect the data ca ble from t he UPS Port on the UPS to

the UPS connector on the Remote Management card.

3. If you do not have a Remote Management card, connect the UPS data cable from

the UPS Port on the UPS to the connector on the server labeled Serial 2/UPS.

5. Set the Input Voltage Selector

CAUTION To avoid damage to your server, be sure to set the input voltage s elector switch to a

setting wit hin the voltage range of the power source you intend to use. Always check the switch setting before connecting the power cord.

1. If your input voltage is in the ra nge of 100 V to 127 V, set the voltage selector to

the 115 setting.

2. If your input voltage is in the ra nge of 200 V to 240 V, set the voltage selector to

the 230 setting.

NOTE System models Dx70, Dx80, and D390 have a power supply that automatically

switches to match the input vol tage level. There is no voltage sele ctor switch on these models.

6. Connect the System Power Cords

How you connect the system power cords depe nds on whether your server configuratio n includ es the opti onal Unin terrupt ibl e Power Syst em (UPS). Be sure to connect power correctly for your system, as shown below.

WARNING Be sure the server cabinet is closed and secured before connecting power cord.

Refer to the WARNING on page 4.

The D Clas s servers can be connected to any UPS in the PowerTrust UPS fami ly, except as noted below.

NOTE The A2941A PowerTrus t UPS (600VA) can only be used on the HP D200 and HP

D210 Deskside Enterprise Servers. All other D Class Enterprise Servers require an A2994A PowerTrust UPS (1300VA), or larger. Contact your nearest HP Sales Representative for more information.

The UPS shown in the following diagram is only representative. Contac t your nearest HP Sales Representative for more inf o r mation.

1. If you do not have a UPS, connect both the D Clas s server and the console ( or optional graphic s monitor) directly to your AC power source.

2. If you have a UPS, connec t the D Class server to the upper - left socket at the toprear of the UPS (using the cord supplied with the UPS), then connect the system console (or optional graphics monitor) to one of the other AC Outle t s ockets along the top of the UPS rear panel.

3. Connect the Console, Web Console, or Graphics Monitor

IMPORTANT POWER ADAPTORS FOR THE REMOTE WEB CONSOLE:

The Remote Web Console, used with an R-Class server in either a racked or standalone con figuration, receives power from a sp ecial power adaptor included with your shipment.

The locali zed power adaptor inc luded in the Remote Web Console box is qualified for use ONLY for stand-alone (non-racke d) servers. Do not use this power adaptor for rac ked server solutions.

Racked servers, whether pre-integrated at the factory or rack-mounted at the customer site, must instead use the auto-ranging R Class W eb Console Power Adaptor (HP Part No. 0950-3415) inc luded in the server accessories box. This power adapto r can be secured to the rear of the server chassis using the Velcro strips attached there (refer to the figure on page 2-10).

Do not discard the auto-ranging power adaptor even if the server is configured as a stand-alon e unit. If the server is rack-mounted at a later date, the auto-ranging

power adaptor will be needed to provide the proper power supply to the Remote Web Console.

Configure th e Remote Web Console using the instruc tions provid ed in its shipping box.
