Pre-installation requirements

This section describes the tasks that you must complete before you start the installation. You
complete certain tasks before you go on site and other tasks at the site.

Preinstallation tasks to complete at the customer site

Before you start the installation, you must:
Verify that all the required equipment is on site
Ensure that the preinstallation team completed the preinstallation tasks

Verifying that all the required equipment is on site

Compare the list of items that were ordered to the contents of the boxes to verify that you have
all the equipment. Your project manager can give you an inventory list. Do not rely on the
packing slips inside the boxes for the correct information.

Ensuring that the preinstallation tasks are complete

The preinstallation team completes the following tasks. If these tasks are not complete, do not
continue with the installation.
Verify that the required number of open, customer-supplied, EIA-310D (or equivalent)
standard 19-in. (48-cm) 4-post equipment rack(s) is(are) properly installed and solidly
secured. Ensure that the screws that come with the racks are present. If you use a rack
cabinet, ensure that the cabinet has adequate ventilation.
Verify that the rail kit to support the server is available to install (S8400 installed in a G650
carrier only).
