Setting up the server
Use the instructions on the quick guide poster that came with the server to
assemble the server.
You can prepare a safer working environment before assembling the server
by following these guidelines:
■ Use a clean, flat, and stable surface for the server. Allow at least 12 inches
at the rear of the computer for cabling and air circulation.
■ Obtain an adequately rated uninterruptible power supply (UPS). A UPS
protects against AC line spikes, power interruptions, and other power
fluctuations that may damage the server.
■ Protect the server from extreme temperature and humidity. Do not
expose it to direct sunlight, heater ducts, or other heat-generating objects.
■ Keep the computer away from equipment that generates magnetic fields,
such as unshielded stereo speakers. Even a telephone placed too close to
the computer may cause interference.
■ Plug the computer into a wall outlet, power strip, or uninterruptible
power supply (UPS). Make sure the power cords are secured in the power
supply cable clamp on the back panel.
Important Keep the boxes and packing material. If you need to send
the computer to Gateway for repairs, you must use the
original packaging or your warranty may be voided.
