Unpacking the System
You should inspect the box the 1027R-72RFTP was shipped in and note if it was
damaged in any way. If the server itself shows damage you should file a damage
claim with the carrier who delivered it.
Decide on a suitable location for the rack unit that will hold the server. It should be
situated in a clean, dust-free area that is well ventilated. Avoid areas where heat,
electrical noise and electromagnetic fields are generated. You will also need it placed
near a grounded power outlet. Be sure to read the Rack and Server Precautions
in the next section.

begin the installation procedure outlined in the sections that follow.
