Walk the entire route and note any obstacles that must be avoided. Ensure that all
floors along the route can support the full weight of the server.
Cover raised data center flooring with fiberboard to protect it, prepare a metal
sheet to cross any gaps in the floor (for example, when entering an elevator), and
prepare a metal ramp to go up or down minor floor elevations.

corner of the server to help guide it.
For extra leverage, remove the rear door and push the server on either side of the
rear LED panel. For instructions of removing the door, see
