Follow the safety precautions listed to ensure safe handling of components, to prevent
injury, and to prevent damage to the server blade:
When removing or installing a server blade or server blade component, review
the instructions provided in this guide.
Do not wear loose clothing that might snag or catch on the server or on other
items.
Do not wear clothing subject to static charge build-up, such as wool or synthetic
materials.
If installing an internal assembly, wear an antistatic wrist strap, and use a
grounding mat such as those included in the Electrically Conductive Field Service
Grounding Kit.
Handle components by the edges only. Do not touch any metal edge-connectors
or electrical components on accessory boards.

Unpacking and inspecting the server blade

Be sure that you have adequately prepared your environment for your new server
blade, received the components that you ordered, and verified that the server and
the containers are in good condition after shipment.

Verifying site preparation

Verifying site preparation is an essential factor of a successful server blade installation,
and includes the following tasks:
Gather LAN information. Determine the two IP addresses for the iLO 3 MP LAN
and the server blade LAN.
Establish a method to connect to the server blade console.
Verify electrical requirements. Be sure that grounding specifications and power
requirements are met.
Confirm environmental requirements.

Inspect the shipping containers for damage

Hewlett Packard Enterprise shipping containers protect their contents under normal
shipping conditions. After the equipment arrives, carefully inspect each carton for
signs of shipping damage. Shipping damage constitutes moderate to severe damage
such as punctures in the corrugated carton, crushed boxes, or large dents. Normal
wear or slight damage to the carton is not considered shipping damage. If you find
shipping damage to the carton, contact your Hewlett Packard Enterprise customer
service representative immediately.
