Caring For Your Server
D-3
Moving the Server
Perform the following steps before shipping or moving the server:
1. Back up all files stored on all hard disk drives.
2. Turn off the server (the monitor automatically shuts off).
3. Disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet, then from the back of the
server.
4. Disconnect the monitor cable from the back of the server.
5. Disconnect the keyboard cable from the back of the server.
6. Disconnect the mouse cable from the back of the server.
7. Disconnect any other external peripheral devices, such as printers and
modems.
8. Insert a drive protection card in the 3½-inch diskette drive. If you do not
have a drive protection card, use a blank diskette.
9. Package the server as described in the following section, "Packing the
Server."
Packing the Server
If you are moving the server a short distance (from one room to another in the same
building), you do not have to pack the server. If you are shipping the server or
moving it by vehicle, pack the server to avoid damage.
Pack the server in the original packing material and containers. If you did not save
the boxes and packing material, use a sturdy carton and cushion the server well to
avoid damage.
