Procedure
1. If the chassis is in a rack, remove it from the rack.
2. Place the chassis on a lift or on the shipping pallet provided with the original chassis and transport to
storage location.
3. Unpack the new chassis.
a. Cut the bands that encircle the packaging.
b. Open the top of the shipping box and remove accessory kit, rack mount kits, and foam from the
top of the chassis.
c. Lift the cardboard shipping container and inner cardboard sleeve off the chassis.
d. Remove the antistatic plastic off the chassis.
e. Save the packing materials for use when returning the old chassis.
f. Leave the chassis on top the foam shipping tray and wood pallet if the chassis must be transported
to the installation location.
g. Verify the contents of the shipping carton by referring to "Items shipped" on page 14.
h. Save foam packing material and wooden pallet for reuse.
4. Use a pallet jack or other assisted lift to transport the new chassis to the installation area. Doorways
must be wider than 91 cm (36 in.) to accommodate the chassis on the pallet.
5. Use a lift to raise the chassis to the correct level. If installing the chassis in a rack, follow the
instructions provided by the rack kit manufacturer.
Installing components into the chassis
About this task
Follow electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions when installing new components. Wear a wrist
grounding strap connected to chassis ground (if the device is plugged in) or a bench ground.
DANGER
Procedure
1. Record the chassis serial number, SKU, and WWN printed on the chassis label. This label is located
on the upper portion of the chassis to the left of the fan assemblies on the nonport side. You may
need this information to transfer licenses to the new chassis.
2. Replace the fan assemblies ("Installing a fan assembly" on page 176).
A completely empty chassis weighs approximately 24.49 kg (54.0 lb) and requires a
hydraulic or assisted lift to install it.
Make sure the rack housing the device is adequately secured to prevent it from
becoming unstable or falling over.
For safety reasons, the ESD wrist strap should contain a series 1 megaohm resistor.
