About this Guide

Rack stability

Rack stability protects personnel and equipment.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment, be sure that:

The leveling jacks are extended to the floor.

The full weight of the rack rests on the leveling jacks.

In single rack installations, the stabilizing feet are attached to the rack.

In multiple rack installations, the racks are coupled.

Only one rack component is extended at any time. A rack may become unstable if more than one rack component is extended for any reason.

Getting help

If you still have a question after reading this guide, contact an HP Authorized Service Provider or access our web site: http://www.hp.com.

Note: HP call centers use product and serial numbers to validate warranty entitlement. Most HP products can provide product number, serial number and firmware revision electronically through the use of supplied management or diagnostic utilities, eliminating the need to physically inspect or remove products from installed enclosures. You may be directed by HP to run these utilities to gather required entitlement information.
