Moving your server Important Do not move your server while it is on. Always turn the server off before you move it. Normal shipping and handling can cause loss of data from a hard disk. If your server has a hard disk drive, take the following precautions: 1. Back up all files and data from the hard disk. Operating systems can vary in the way they perform backup procedures. Some operating systems save only data files, while others make copies of application program files and data files. Refer to your operating system documentation for information about software backup. 2. Remove all media (diskettes, compact discs, tapes, and so on) from the drives. 3. Turn the server and all attached devices off. Your hard disk drive automatically parks the read/write heads in a nondata area. This process prevents damage to the hard disk. 4. Unplug the power cords from electrical outlets. 5. Note where you have attached your cables to the rear of the server; then remove them. 18 kg (37 lbs) 32 kg (70.5 lbs) 55 kg (121.2 lbs) Caution Use safe practices when lifting. . 6. If you saved the original shipping cartons and packing materials, use them to pack the units. If you are using different cartons, cushion the units to avoid any damage. Netfinity 8655 - Type 8655 71
