    Hot-plug fan operation 
    The server supports variable fan speeds to allow the speed  of all fans to increase if the temperature in any 
    area increases. The fans will run at minimum spee d until a temperature change requires a fan speed 
    increase to cool the server.  
    The server shuts down in the following scenarios: 
    •  At POST: 
    • The BIOS suspends the server for 5 minutes if it  detects a cautionary temperature level. If the 
    cautionary temperature level is still detected  after 5 minutes, the BIOS performs an orderly 
    shutdown and enters Standby mode. 
    •  The BIOS performs an orderly shutdown  if fewer than 11 fans are operating. 
    • The server performs an immediate shutdown if  it detects a critical temperature level.  
      IMPORTANT:   An immediate shutdown is a hardware-control led function and it overrides any firmware or 
    software actions. 
    •  In the operating system: 
    • The Health Driver performs an orderly shutdown if  it detects a cautionary temperature level. If the 
    server detects a critical temperature level before  the orderly shutdown occurs, the server performs 
    an immediate shutdown. Additionally, the Health  Driver performs an orderly shutdown if more 
    than one fan is failed or removed. 
    •  When Thermal Shutdown is disabled in RBSU, the  server performs an immediate shutdown if it 
    detects a critical temperature level. 
       IMPORTANT:   An immediate shutdown is a hardware-control led function and it overrides any firmware or 
    software actions.

    Rack planning resources 
    The rack resource kit ships with all HP branded  or Compaq branded 9000, 10000, and H9 series racks. 
    For more information on the content of each resour ce, refer to the rack resource kit documentation. 
    If you intend to deploy and config ure multiple servers in a single rack, refer to the white paper on high-
    density deployment at the HP website ( http://www.hp.com/products/servers/platforms
    ).  
    Optimum environment 
    When installing the server in a rack, select a locati on that meets the environmental standards described in 
    this section. 
     
    Space and airflow requirements 
    To allow for servicing and adequate airflow, observe  the following space and airflow requirements when 
    deciding where to install a rack: 
    •  Leave a minimum clearance of 63.5 cm (25 in) in front of the rack. 
    • Leave a minimum clearance of 76.2 cm (30 in) behind the rack. 
    • Leave a minimum clearance of 121.9 cm (48 in) 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  and expel warm air through the rear door. Therefore, 
    the front and rear rack doors must be adequately  ventilated to allow ambient room air to enter the 
    cabinet, and the rear door must be adequately vent ilated to allow the warm air to escape from the 
    cabinet. 
       CAUTION:   To prevent improper cooling and damage to the equipment, do not block the ventilation 
    openings. 
    When vertical space in the rack is not filled by  a server or rack component, the gaps between the 
    components cause changes in airflow through the ra ck and across the servers. Cover all gaps with 
    blanking panels to maintain proper airflow. 
       CAUTION:   Always use blanking panels to fill empty vertic al 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. 
    The 9000 and 10000 Series Racks provide proper server cooling from flow-through perforations in the 
    front and rear doors that provide 64 percent open area for ventilation.  
      CAUTION:   When using a Compaq branded 7000 Series rack,  you must install the high airflow rack door 
    insert [P/N 327281-B21 (42U) or P/N 157847-B21 (22U )] to provide proper front-to-back airflow and 
    cooling. 
       CAUTION:   If a third-party rack is used, observe the fo llowing additional requirements to ensure adequate 
    airflow and to prevent damage to the equipment: 
    •   Front and rear doors—If the 42U rack includes clos ing 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 comp onent and the side panels of the rack must be a 
    minimum of 7 cm (2.75 in). 
       IMPORTANT:   The HP ProLiant DL380 Generation 5 Server  cable management arm is not supported on 
    Compaq branded 7000 series racks. 
      
    						
    							
     
    Setup 28 
    Temperature requirements 
    To ensure continued safe and reliable equipment oper ation, install or position the system in a well-
    ventilated, climate-controlled environment. 
    The maximum recommended ambient operating temperat ure (TMRA) for most server products is 35°C 
    (95°F). The temperature in the room where the rack is located must not exceed 35°C (95°F). 
       CAUTION:   To reduce the risk of damage to the equi pment when installing third-party options: 
    •   Do not permit optional equipment to  impede airflow around the server or to increase the internal rack 
    temperature beyond the maximum allowable limits. 
    •   Do not exceed the manufacturer’s TMRA. 
     
    Power requirements 
    Installation of this equipment must comply with lo cal and regional electrical regulations governing the 
    installation of information technology equipment by li censed electricians. This equipment is designed to 
    operate in installations covered by NFPA 70, 1999 Ed ition (National Electric Code) and NFPA-75, 1992 
    (code for Protection of Electronic Computer/Data Proc essing Equipment). For electrical power ratings on 
    options, refer to the product rating label or th e user documentation supplied with that option. 
      WARNING:  To reduce the risk of personal  injury, fire, or damage to the equipment, do 
    not overload the AC supply branch circuit th at provides power to the rack. Consult the 
    electrical authority having jurisdiction over  wiring and installation requirements of your 
    facility.  
      CAUTION:   Protect the server from power fluctuations  and temporary interruptions with a regulating 
    uninterruptible power supply (UPS). This device pr otects the hardware from damage caused by power 
    surges and voltage spikes and keeps the syst em in operation during a power failure. 
    When installing more than one server, you may need  to use additional power distribution devices to 
    safely provide power to all devices. Observe the following guidelines: 
    •  Balance the server power load between  available AC supply branch circuits. 
    • Do not allow the overall system AC current load  to exceed 80 percent of the branch circuit AC 
    current rating. 
    •  Do not use common power outlet  strips for this equipment. 
    • Provide a separate electrical circuit for the server.  
    Electrical grounding requirements 
    The server must be grounded properly for proper operation and safety. In the United States, you must 
    install the equipment in accordance with NFPA 70,  1999 Edition (National Electric Code), Article 250, 
    as well as any local and regional  building codes. In Canada, you must install the equipment in 
    accordance with Canadian Standards Association, CS A C22.1, Canadian Electrical Code. In all other 
    countries, you must install the equipment in accordance  with any regional or national electrical wiring 
    codes, such as the International Electrotechnical  Commission (IEC) Code 364, parts 1 through 7. 
    Furthermore, you must be sure that all power distributi on devices used in the installation, such as branch 
    wiring and receptacles, are listed or  certified grounding-type devices. 
    Because of the high ground-leakage currents associ ated with multiple servers connected to the same 
    power source, HP recommends the use of a PDU that is  either permanently wired to the building’s branch 
    circuit or includes a nondetachable co rd that is wired to an industrial-style plug. NEMA locking-style plugs 
    or those complying with IEC 60309 are considered su itable for this purpose. Using common power outlet 
    strips for the server is not recommended.
