Moving the Xserve RAID System
If you need to move the system after you have mounted it in a rack or cabinet, you must
follow the precautions listed below.
Before moving a rack or cabinet that contains the Xserve RAID system:
m If feasible, remove the system from the rack and remount it after moving the rack or
cabinet; always use two people to hold or carry the system.
m If you cannot remove the system, carefully secure the rack screws on the front and rear of
the system.
m Check the fastening tabs or handle on each component on the back panel to be sure that
all are firmly closed and in place.
Warning Make certain that the system is securely fastened to the rack or cabinet and
that all components are firmly in place before attempting to move the rack or cabinet. If
the system or components are not secure, moving the system could result in injury or
damage to the hardware.
