IBM XIV Storage System Manual page 35

Notes:
1. Coordinate a technical survey with IBM representatives to plan the loading
path from the truck to the server room.
2. If required to reduce the height of the rack for delivery to locations where
doorway heights are smaller than the delivery clearances, it is possible to
remove the rack from the pallet and roll the rack on its castors, for a short
distance. This reduces delivery height to 1991 mm (78.4 in.).
Important: The rack is more easily moved when on a pallet and the rack casters
might damage floors and carpets; therefore, roll the rack into position on its own
casters only when necessary.
Disassembled shipping for weight reduction
If your site does not meet the delivery clearances shown in Table 12 on page 14,
IBM offers a disassembled shipping option (FC: 0200), which reduces the weight of
the shipment for easier moving of components. The rack shipping weight is
reduced to less than 300 kg by removing selected components that are shipped
separately. This option reduces weight loading on floors and elevators used for
moving the unit from the truck to the final position in the lab, and makes it easier
to maneuver the rack through areas that do not meet the minimum space
requirements. The IBM service representative installs the components that were
shipped separately during the storage unit installation.
Note: This option greatly increases storage-unit installation time.
