Getting Started

This guide shows you how to install the Sun Fire 280R server into a Sun expansion
cabinet, or other EIA 310-compliant rack enclosure. Following the use of this Setup
Guide for installing the server into a rack, you will need to use the Sun Fire 280R
Server Owner's Guide for instructions about how to install the software.
To install a Sun Fire 280R server into a rack enclosure, complete the following tasks
in the order listed:
Unpack the system and verify the kit contents. See Chapter 1.
Rackmount the server. See Chapter 2.
Set up the system. See Chapter 3.

Unpack the System

Your system is shipped from the factory with most internal options installed.
Peripherals that are not factory installed are shipped separately. With the exception
of internal disk drives in the Sun Fire 280R server, all component part installation or
replacement must be performed by a qualified service provider. If your system
options are not fully installed, consult the Sun Fire 280R Server Owner's Guide or the
Sun Fire 280R Server Service Manual for installation instructions or contact a qualified
service provider.
Inspect all shipping cartons for evidence of physical damage. If a shipping carton is
damaged, request that the carrier's agent be present when the carton is opened.
Keep all contents and packing material for the agent's inspections.
Check that you have received all of the parts you ordered. Contact Sun
Microsystems or your distributor/reseller if you are missing anything.
