Planning the installation
Safety and regulatory compliance
For important safety, environmental, and regulatory information, see Safety and Compliance Information for
Server, Storage, Power, Networking, and Rack Products, available at the Hewlett Packard Enterprise website
(http://www.hpe.com/support/Safety-Compliance-EnterpriseProducts).
Configuration guidelines
Operate the chassis only when a device or blank is installed in all device bays. Before powering up the
chassis, be sure to do the following:
• Install fan modules into all fan module bays.
• Install power supplies into all power supply bays.
• Install a device or a blank into the following bays:
◦ I/O module bays
◦ Server tray bays
◦ Switch bays
For additional switch installation requirements, see the following sections:
•Installing data switch options on page 32
•Installing high-speed fabric switch options on page 36
Determining power and cooling configurations
Validate power and cooling requirements based on location and installed components.
Power requirements
Installation of this equipment must comply with local and regional electrical regulations governing the
installation of IT equipment by licensed electricians. This equipment is designed to operate in installations
covered by NFPA 70, 1999 Edition (National Electric Code) and NFPA-75, 1992 (code for Protection of
Electronic Computer/Data Processing Equipment). For electrical power ratings on options, refer to the product
rating label or the 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 that 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
UPS. This device protects the hardware from damage caused by power surges and voltage spikes and
keeps the server in operation during a power failure.
Planning the installation 5
HPE Apollo Platform Manager
HPE Apollo Platform Manager is an optional point of contact for system administration. HPE Apollo Platform
Manager allows you to manage and regulate power at a rack level by connecting the chassis that contains
chassis controllers.
To configure and access APM, see the HPE Apollo Platform Manager User Guide on the Hewlett Packard
Enterprise website (http://www.hpe.com/support/APM_UG_en).
Hot-plug power supply calculations
For more information on the hot-plug power supply and calculators to determine server power consumption in
various system configurations, see the Hewlett Packard Enterprise Power Advisor website (http://
www.hpe.com/info/poweradvisor/online).
Compiling the documentation
The documentation, while delivered individually and in various formats, works as a solution. Consult the
following documents before attempting installation:
•HPE Apollo k6000 Chassis Quick Setup Instructions
•HPE Apollo k6000 Chassis Rail Kit for HPE and Third Party Racks Installation Instructions
These documents provide required important safety information and decision-making steps for configuration.
To access these documents, see the Hewlett Packard Enterprise website (http://www.hpe.com/info/
Apollok6000-docs).
Warnings and cautions
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to equipment, heed all warnings and
cautions throughout the installation instructions.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment, be sure that:
• The rack is bolted to the floor using the concrete anchor kit.
• The leveling feet extend to the floor.
• The full weight of the rack rests on the leveling feet.
• The racks are coupled together in multiple rack installations.
• Only one component is extended at a time. If more than one component is extended, a rack might
become unstable.
6 HPE Apollo Platform Manager
WARNING: The chassis is very heavy. To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the
equipment:
• Observe local occupational health and safety requirements and guidelines for manual material
handling.
• Remove all servers from the chassis before installing or moving the chassis.
• Use caution and get help to lift and stabilize the chassis during installation or removal, especially
when the chassis is not fastened to the rack.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment, you must adequately
support the chassis during installation and removal.
WARNING: Install the chassis starting from the bottom of the rack and work your way up the rack.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the drives and the internal
system components to cool before touching them.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to the equipment:
• Never reach inside the chassis while the system is powered up.
• Perform service on system components only as instructed in the user documentation.
CAUTION: Always be sure that equipment is properly grounded and that you follow proper grounding
procedures before beginning any installation procedure. Improper grounding can result in ESD damage
to electronic components. For more information, refer to "Electrostatic discharge on page 48."
CAUTION: When performing non-hot-plug operations, you must power down the server and/or the
system. However, it may be necessary to leave the server powered up when performing other
operations, such as hot-plug installations or troubleshooting.
CAUTION: Do not operate the server for long periods with the access panel open or removed.
Operating the server in this manner results in improper airflow and improper cooling that can lead to
thermal damage.
Space and airflow requirements
Installation of the chassis is supported in 1200 mm Gen10 racks.
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.
Space and airflow requirements 7
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 ventilated 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 chassis or rack component, the gaps between the
components cause changes in airflow through the rack and across the components. 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: If a 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 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).
Temperature requirements
To ensure continued safe and reliable equipment operation, install or position the rack in a well-ventilated,
climate-controlled environment.
The operating temperature inside the rack is always higher than the room temperature and is dependent on
the configuration of equipment in the rack. Check the TMRA for each piece of equipment before installation.
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of damage to the equipment when installing third-party options:
• Do not permit optional equipment to impede airflow around the chassis or to increase the internal
rack temperature beyond the maximum allowable limits.
• Do not exceed the manufacturer’s TMRA.
Grounding requirements
• The building installation must provide a means of connection to protective earth.
• The equipment must be connected to that means of connection.
• A service person must check whether the socket-outlet from which the equipment is to be powered
provides a connection to the building protective earth. If the outlet does not provide a connection, the
service person must arrange for the installation of a protective earthing conductor from the separate
protective earthing terminal to the protective earth wire in the building.
