Relocating an ESS racked system 5147-084 (5U84)

Important: Relocation of this enclosure is not a Customer action. You must contact IBM service
(www.ibm.com/planetwide) to relocate this enclosure. Loss of data or system damage may result if IBM
service does not perform the relocation action.
Shipment or storage conditions that exceed the specified limits can cause permanent damage to your
server. These guidelines should be followed when relocating or temporarily storing your server.
Care should be taken to ensure that a server is not stored with chemicals that can cause corrosion
damage.
When a server is removed in preparation for shipment or storage, use the packaging bill of material. This
might include a protective package, including blocks, braces, and preparation instructions, designed
uniquely for each server. This is available from any IBM
for operation in a controlled temperature and relative humidity range, and require the environment be
kept within this range even when they are in a storage area or in transit. See the individual server
specifications for operating environment limits. Shipment of large processors should be in an
environmentally controlled van with appropriate strapping and padding to avoid any transit damage.

Operation

Important: All rear modules are part of the fire enclosure and must only be removed when a replacement
can be immediately inserted.
Important: The enclosure does not receive sufficient airflow or cooling if it is operated with any of the
rear modules missing. It is essential that every module bay be filled either with a module or a blank
module. Each row of drive bays must be completely empty or completely full.
