B.1.1 Thermal Stabilization

Before you remove the enclosure from its packaging, allow it enough time to adjust to the local temperature and humidity of the new operating environment.

CAUTION: Failure to thermally stabilize cluster components can potentially damage drive media or associated electronics when the cluster is activated.

Place the equipment in the room in which it is to be installed. If it arrives in a plastic bag, leave it in the bag. If condensation is visible on any component, stabilize in the operating environment for six hours or until the condensation is no longer visible, whichever is longer. Table B-2specifies the time required to thermally stabilize the enclosure, based on the ambient shipping temperature.
