Overview
This chapter provides a quick setup checklist to get your StorTrends 3100 up and running.
Following the steps in the order given should enable you to have the system operational
within a minimal amount of time. This quick setup assumes that your 3100 system has
come to you with the processor and memory preinstalled.
Unpacking the StorTrends 3100
You should inspect the box the StorTrends 3100 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 rack unit that will
hold the StorTrends 3100. 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. Read the Rack and
Server Precautions in the next section.
Preparing for Setup
The box the StorTrends 3100 was shipped in should include a set of rail assemblies and
the mounting screws you will need to install the system into the rack. Follow the steps in
the order given to complete the installation process in a minimal amount of time. Please
read this section in its entirety before you begin the installation procedure outlined in the
sections that follow.
