Unpacking the System

You should inspect the box the system was shipped in and note if it was
damaged in any way. If the server itself shows damage you should file a
damage claim with the carrier who delivered it.
Decide on a suitable location for the SuperServer 7044H-82R/7044H-X8R/
7044H-82.
It should be situated in a clean, dust-free area that is well
ventilated.
Avoid areas where heat, electrical noise and electromagnetic
fields are generated. You will also need it placed near a grounded power
outlet. Be sure to read the Rack and Server Precautions in the next section.
