Receiving and Inspecting the Server Cabinet
This section contains information about receiving, unpacking and inspecting the server cabinet.
NOTE The server will ship in one of three different configurations. The configurations are:
• On a pallet installed in a server cabinet
• On a pallet for rack mount into an existing cabinet on the customer site
• On a pallet with a wheel kit for installation as a standalone server
HP shipping containers are designed to protect their contents under normal shipping conditions. A tilt
indicator is installed on each carton shipped. The tilt indicator has two windows, and each window under
normal conditions will show four beads present. If a carton has been mishandled, accidentally dropped, or
knocked against something, the tilt indicator will indicate missing beads. If the container has been tilted to
an angle that could cause equipment damage, the beads in the indicator will roll to the upper position.
After the equipment arrives at the customer site, carefully inspect each carton for signs of shipping damage.
If the container is damaged, document the damage with photographs and contact the transport carrier
immediately.
The factory provides an installation warranty that is effective from the time the customer
NOTE
receives the shipment until Field Services turns the system over to the customer.
Upon inspection of a received system and during installation of the system, if any parts or
accessories are missing or defective, they will be replaced directly from the factory by a priority
process. To request replacement parts, the HP Installation Specialist must contact the local
Order Fulfillment group which will coordinate the replacement with the factory.
