About the Parts Shipped to You
Standard features for Sun Fire V490 systems are installed at the factory. However, if
you ordered options such as a monitor, or keyboard and mouse, these will be
shipped to you separately.
In addition, you should have received the media and documentation for all
appropriate system software. Check that you have received everything you ordered.
Note – Inspect the shipping carton for evidence of physical damage. If a shipping
carton is damaged, request that the carrier’s agent be present when the carton is
opened. Keep all contents and packing material for the agent’s inspection.
