In which case, you roll it back to its original location before you call HP
;-)

Seriously, rolling machines around in the room is no big deal, and people do
it all the time.  I would definitely involve HP if moving the machine to a
different site, but not for the move you describe.

I'll let others add their two cents, however, my understanding of HP's
official policy is that if the system does not come back up OK, the repair
is not covered under your support contract since you moved it.
