Site preparation must be completed by the pre–arranged delivery date. Any delay due to
non–completion of the site by the pre–arranged date will be considered as the Customer’s
responsibility.
The server is delivered 24 hours in advance of the scheduled installation date. On arrival, it
must be placed, in its packing, in the Computer Room so that it reaches room temperature
before powering up (optimum operating temperature = 22° C +
3° C, hygrometry = 50% +
5%).
CAUTION:
It is mandatory for the server to be transported vertically. The server cabinet is
extremely heavy and requires the use of an elevator. The Data Processing Site
manager must allocate enough personnel to ensure safe handling. See Appendix A.
for server specifications.
The server is delivered packed on a pallet with rails for easy unloading. The Data
Processing Site manager must set aside the required working area for unpacking as shown
in the following figure.
Use the Packing Slip to check the number and condition of the shipping boxes prior to
unpacking.
