Installing the chassis
The chassis requires installation in a rack. Install the rack rails, and then
install the chassis and other components. For more information, see the HP
ProLiant SL4500 Series Setup and Installation Guide and the Quick Deploy Rail
System Installation Instructions that ship with the rack hardware kit.
Installing the front components
CAUTION: To prevent improper cooling and thermal damage, do not operate the HP ProLiant SL4500 Series unless all hard drive and device bays are populated with either a component or a blank.
Add any ordered options to the node.
Installing the nodes into the chassis
Install the component as indicated.
Installing a hard drive
To install the component:
-
Prepare the drive.
IMPORTANT: The chassis supports up to 25 SAS or SATA hard drives per hard drive backplane. Always populate hard drive bays from the rear to the front starting with the highest device bay ID number. All unpopulated drive bays require drive blanks to properly distribute air flow and cool the installed drives. -
Install the drive.
-
Determine the status of the drive from the drive LED definitions.
Installing the rear components
CAUTION: To prevent improper cooling and thermal damage, do not operate the chassis unless all bays are populated with a component or a blank.
Installing the system fan

IMPORTANT: Use the tabs to insert the system fan into the chassis. Do not push in on the system fan grill to install it.
Installing a power supply
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to the equipment:
- Do not disable the power cord grounding plug. The grounding plug is an important safety feature.
- Plug the power cord into a grounded (earthed) electrical outlet that is easily accessible at all times.
- Unplug the power cord from the power supply to disconnect power to the equipment.
- Do not route the power cord where it can be walked on or pinched by items placed against it. Pay particular attention to the plug, electrical outlet, and the point where the cord extends from the server.
To install the component:
Insert the power supply into the device bay, and then press firmly until the
power supply is seated.
Installing an I/O module
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or damage to the equipment, do not plug telephone or telecommunications connectors into RJ-45 connectors.
To install the component:
- Release the I/O handle, and then push the I/O handle down.
- Insert the I/O module into the chassis, and be sure it is fully seated.
- Push the I/O module handle up to lock it into place.
Installing a management module
To install the component:
- Be sure the handle is in the down position.
- Insert the management module into the device bay, and press firmly until the module is seated.
