Detailed instructions for use are in the User's Guide.
[. . . ] After you have completed the six safety steps above, remove the covers as follows: 1. To open the top back cover, push the sliding latches on the top of the cover and pull the cover toward the back of the chassis. To remove the top back cover, continue to slide the cover toward the back of the chassis until it reaches the end-stops. Press the latch on the left rail slide and pull the cover until it clears the chassis. [. . . ] Select a site that meets these criteria: · Near a properly earthed, grounded three-pronged power outlet · · · · In the United States and Canada: A NEMA-compliant, 110-208V~ outlet rated for 15 amps In other geographic areas: A properly grounded, earthed outlet in accordance with the local electrical authorities and electrical code of the region
Clean and relatively free of excess dust Well ventilated and away from sources of heat, with the ventilating openings on the server kept free of obstructions. Away from sources of vibration or physical shock Isolated 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
CAUTION, ESD Precautions
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage disk drives, add-in boards, and other parts. However, we recommend doing all procedures in this guide only at an ESD-protected workstation. If one is not available, you can provide some ESD protection by wearing an anti-static wrist strap attached to chassis ground of the server when handling components (e. g. , any unpainted metal surface).
CAUTION
Grounded outlet: Make sure that the power service connection is through a properly grounded outlet. Temperature: The range of temperatures in which the server operates when installed in an equipment rack, must not go below 5° C (41° F) or rise above 35° C (95° F). Extreme fluctuations in temperature can cause a variety of problems in your server. Ventilation: The equipment rack must provide sufficient airflow to the front of the server to maintain proper cooling. Front View of MAXDATA PLATINUM 9000-2R Server (Shown with Bezel Removed) A.

CAUTION
Unplug server before connecting external devices, make sure the server is not plugged in or equipment could be damaged. Before powering on the server, you must connect these devices to the front or back of the Server System. Mouse to a USB port
Powering On the Server for the First Time
The first time you power on the server you need to enter the BIOS Setup Utility and set the correct date and time values. After setting these values, the server executes its Power-On Self Test (POST) sequence and passes control to the Boot Manager. [. . . ] At the shell prompt, enter the following command:
mount -r
