Unpacking the SuperServer 6113L-8/6113L-i

You should inspect the box the SuperServer 6113L-8/6113L-i was shipped in and

note if it was damaged in any way. If the server itself shows damage you should

file a damage claim with the carrier who delivered it.

Decide on a suitable location for the rack unit that will hold the SuperServer

6113L-8/6113L-i. It should be situated in a clean, dust-free area that is well

ventilated. Avoid areas where heat, electrical noise and electromagnetic fields

are generated. You will also need it placed near a grounded power outlet. Be

sure to read the Rack and Server Precautions in the next section.
