Chapter 2: Setting Up Your Server Setting up the hardware To make sure that your working environment is safe: ■ Use a clean, dry, stable cabinet mount for your server. ■ Use a UPS with surge protection for protection from power outages and power spikes. Warning Your server comes with 3-wire AC power cords fitted with the correct plug style for your region. If this plug does not match the connector on your UPS or wall outlet, do not attempt to modify the plug in any way. Use a UPS or wall outlet that is appropriate for the supplied AC power cords. ■ Avoid subjecting your server to extreme temperature changes. Do not expose your server to direct sunlight, heating ducts, or other heat-generating objects. Damage caused by extreme temperatures is not covered by your warranty. As a general rule, your server is safest at temperatures that are comfortable for you. ■ Keep your server and magnetic media away from equipment that generates magnetic fields, such as unshielded stereo speakers. Strong magnetic fields can erase data on both diskettes and hard drives. Even a telephone placed too close to the server may cause interference. Important Keep the server boxes and packing material in case you need to ship the server. 10 www.gateway.com

Setting up the hardware
To make sure that your working environment is safe:
■
Use a clean, dry, stable cabinet mount for your server.
■
Use a UPS with surge protection for protection from power outages and
power spikes.
■
Avoid subjecting your server to extreme temperature changes. Do not
expose your server to direct sunlight, heating ducts, or other
heat-generating objects. Damage caused by extreme temperatures is not
covered by your warranty. As a general rule, your server is safest at
temperatures that are comfortable for you.
■
Keep your server and magnetic media away from equipment that
generates magnetic fields, such as unshielded stereo speakers. Strong
magnetic fields can erase data on both diskettes and hard drives. Even a
telephone placed too close to the server may cause interference.
Warning
Your server comes with 3-wire AC power cords fitted with
the correct plug style for your region. If this plug does not
match the connector on your UPS or wall outlet, do not
attempt to modify the plug in any way. Use a UPS or wall
outlet that is appropriate for the supplied AC power cords.
Important
Keep the server boxes and packing material in case you
need to ship the server.
