Post-System-Installation Check
After the system has been installed in a computer room and verified, conduct the post installation check.
Before turning the system over to the customer, it is important to inspect the system visually and clean up the
installation area. Do the following:
•
Inspect circuit boards. Check that all circuit boards are installed and properly seated and that the
circuit board retainers are reinstalled.
•
Inspect cabling. Check that all cables are installed, secured, and properly routed.
•
Inspect test points. Check that test leads are removed from the test points, and that the test points are
properly covered.
•
Clean up and dispose of debris. Remove all debris from the area, and dispose of it properly.
•
Perform final check. Inspect the area to ensure that all parts, tools, and other items used to install the
system are disposed of properly. Then close and lock the doors.
•
Enter information in the Gold Book. When the installation and cleanup are complete, make the
appropriate notations in the Gold Book, which should have been shipped with the system.
•
Obtain customer acceptance (if required). This includes thanking the customer for choosing
Hewlett-Packard.
