Getting started
Checking for damage to the packaging
Inspect the packaging container for evidence of mishandling during
transit. If the packaging container is damaged, photograph it for
reference. Save the packaging container and packing materials in the
event you need to package the server for reshipment.
Selecting a site
Before unpacking and installing the system, select a suitable site for
the system for maximum efficiency. Consider the following factors
when choosing a site for the system:
• Near a properly grounded, three-pronged power outlet
Note:
In the United States and Canada: a NEMA 6-15R outlet for 100-
120 V and for 200-240 V.
In other geographic areas: a properly grounded outlet in
accordance with the local electrical authorities and electrical code
of the region.
• Clean and dust-free
• Stable surface free from vibration
• Well-ventilated and away from sources of heat, with the
ventilation openings on the server kept free of obstructions
• Secluded from strong electromagnetic fields and noise caused by
electrical devices such as elevators, copy machines, air
conditioners, large fans, large electric motors, radio and TV
transmitters, and high-frequency security devices.
• Maximum ambient air temperature should not exceed 35°C
(95°F).
• Access space provided so the server power cords can be unplugged
from the power supply or the wall outlet; this is the only way to
remove AC power from the server.
