Installation
Required Equipment
Avoid UPS types that use ferroresonant technology. These UPS types can become unstable with systems such as the Cisco UCS, which can have substantial current draw fluctuations due to fluctuating data traffic patterns.
•Ensure that circuits are sized according to local and national codes. For North America, the power supply requires a 20 A circuit.
To prevent loss of input power, ensure that the total maximum loads on the circuits supplying power to the chassis are within the current ratings for the wiring and breakers.
•Use the following torque values when installing the chassis:
Required Equipment
Before you begin the installation, ensure that you have the following items:
•Number 1 and number 2
•Tape measure and level
•ESD wrist strap or other grounding device
•Antistatic mat or antistatic foam
Unpacking and Inspecting the Chassis
Caution When handling chassis components, wear an ESD strap and handle modules by the carrier edges only.
Tip Keep the shipping container in case the chassis requires shipping in the future.
Note The chassis is thoroughly inspected before shipment. If any damage occurred during transportation or any items are missing, contact your customer service representative immediately.
Procedure
Step 1 Remove the chassis from its cardboard container. Save all packaging material.
