Rack Precautions
o Ensure that the leveling jacks on the bottom of the rack are fully extended to the floor with the full
weight of the rack resting on them.
o In a single rack installation, stabilizers should be attached to the rack.
o In multiple rack installations, the racks should be coupled together.
o Always make sure the rack is stable before extending a component from the rack.
o You should extend only one component at a time - extending two or more si- multaneously may
cause the rack to become unstable.
Server Precautions
o Review the electrical and general safety precautions in Chapter 4.
o Determine the placement of each component in the rack before you install the rails.
o Install the heaviest server components on the bottom of the rack first, and then work up.
o Use a regulating uninterruptible power supply (UPS) to protect the server from power surges,
voltage spikes and to keep your system operating in case of a
power failure.
o Allow the power supply units and hot plug Serial ATA drives to cool before touching them.
o Always keep the rack's front door and all panels and components on the servers
closed when not servicing to maintain proper cooling.
