Sun Microsystems 280R About the Parts Shipped to You, Using the Setup and Rackmounting Guide

About the Parts Shipped to You

Your system is “configured-to-order,” which means that most internal options that you ordered are pre-installed at the factory. However, if you ordered options that are not factory-installed, these will be shipped to you separately.

You will receive a rackmounting kit (standard) or kits (ordered separately) to install your system(s) into a rackmounting cabinet. See the Sun Fire 280R Server Setup and Rackmounting Guide for a list of parts in the rackmounting kit. You may also have separately ordered one or more rackmounting cabinets with accompanying documentation (ordered separately). Verify that you have received everything you ordered.

In addition, you should have received the media and documentation for all appropriate system software (ordered separately). Verify that you have received everything you ordered.

Note –Inspect all shipping cartons for evidence of physical damage. If a shipping carton is damaged, request that the carrier's agent be present when the carton is opened. Keep all contents and packing material for the agent's inspection.

Using the Setup and Rackmounting Guide

Use this Owner’s Guide with the Sun Fire 280R Server Setup and Rackmounting Guide to install your server. The Setup and Rackmounting Guide is shipped with your system and describes procedures for rackmounting the server, and for attaching all cords and cables needed to get the server up and running.

Tools Required for Setup and Rackmounting

You will need to locate these tools before you rackmount the server in a standard EIA-compliant rack:

■A Phillips No. 2 screwdriver and a flat-blade screwdriver

■An adjustable wrench to tighten the nuts on the slide bracket assemblies and to adjust the feet on the rackmount cabinet’s anti-tip legs (if necessary)

■Allen wrenches to remove the rackmount cabinet’s side panels (if necessary)

■A spirit level to level the rackmount cabinet front-to-back and side-to-side (if necessary)
