Rack. Allow for a sufficient warm-up period prior to server operation.
• Do not install Oracle Exadata Rack near a photocopy machine, air conditioner,
welding machine, or any other equipment that generates loud, electronic noises.
• Avoid static electricity at the installation location. Static electricity transferred to
