Unpacking the Server
Hewlett-Packard shipping containers are designed to protect their contents under normal shipping
conditions. After the equipment arrives, carefully inspect each carton for signs of shipping damage. A tilt
indicator is installed on each carton shipped. The beads in the indicator will roll to the upper position if the
container has been tilted to an angle that could cause equipment damage. The tilt indicator itself will have
two windows and each window under normal conditions will show four beads present. If a carton has been
mishandled, accidentally dropped, or knocked against something, the tilt indicator will indicate missing
beads. If damage is found, document the damage with photographs and contact the transport carrier
immediately.
Examine the server cabinet for visible shipping damage. After unpacking the cabinet, check for damage that
may have been obscured by the shipping container. If damage is found after visual inspection, document the
damage with photographs and contact the transport carrier immediately.
If the equipment has any damage, a damage claim form must be obtained by the customer from the shipping
representative. The customer should complete the form and return it to the shipping representative.
NOTE
The server may come already racked, or ready for rack installation.
