Overview of Server Installation

Rack Environment

To allow for servicing and adequate airflow, observe the following spatial requirements when selecting a site for the rack-mounted server:

A minimum clearance of 63.5 cm (25.0 inches) in front of the rack ·

A minimum clearance of 76.2 cm (30.0 inches) behind the rack

A minimum clearance of 121.9 cm (48.0 inches) from the back of the rack to the

back of another rack or row of racks HP servers draw in cool air through the front door of the rack and expel warm air

through the rear door. Therefore, the front door must be adequately ventilated to allow ambient room air to enter the cabinet, and the rear door must be adequately ventilated to allow the warm air to escape from the cabinet.

IMPORTANT: Do not block the ventilation openings.

When there is any vertical space in the rack not filled by a server or rack component, the gaps between the components cause changes in airflow through the rack and across the servers. Cover all gaps with blanking panels to maintain proper airflow.

CAUTION: Always use blanking panels to fill empty vertical spaces in the rack. This arrangement ensures proper airflow. Using a rack without blanking panels results in improper cooling that can lead to thermal damage.

CAUTION: When using a Compaq branded 7000 Series rack, you must install the high-airflow rack door insert [part number 327281-B21 (42U) and part number 157847-B21 (22U)] to provide proper front-to-back airflow and cooling and to prevent damage to the equipment.

Compaq branded 9000 Series racks provide proper server cool ing fro m flow-th ro ugh

perforations, ensuring 64 percent open area for ventilation. Refer to the rack

documentation provided with Compaq branded 7000 Series racks for guidelines on

meeting airflow requirements.

CAUTION: If an HP or third-party rack is used, observe the following additional requirements to ensure adequate airflow and to prevent damage to the equipment:

· Front and rear doors: If the 42U server rack includes closing front and rear

doors, you must allow 5,350 sq cm (830 sq in) of holes evenly distributed from top to bottom to permit adequate airflow (equivalent to the required 64 percent open area for ventilation).

· Side: The clearance between the installed rack component and the side panels

of the rack must be a minimum of 7 cm (2.75 in).
