SuperServer 1029P-NR32R User's Manual
2.1 Overview
This chapter provides advice and instructions for mounting your system in a server rack. If
your system is not already fully integrated with drives, fans etc., refer to Chapter 3 for details
on installing those specific components.
Caution: Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can damage electronic components. To prevent such
damage to PCBs (printed circuit boards), it is important to use a grounded wrist strap, handle
all PCBs by their edges and keep them in anti-static bags when not in use.
2.2 Preparing for Setup
The box in which the system was shipped should include the rackmount hardware needed to
install it into the rack. Please read this section in its entirety before you begin the installation.
Choosing a Setup Location
•
The system should be situated in a clean, dust-free area that is well-ventilated. Avoid areas
where heat, electrical noise, and electromagnetic fields are generated.
•
Leave at least 25 inches of clearance in front of the rack so that you can open the front
door completely. Leave approximately 30 inches of clearance behind the rack to allow suf-
ficient space for airflow and access when servicing.
•
This product should be installed only in a Restricted Access Location (dedicated equipment

Rack Precautions
