Preparing to move the DS4500 Storage Server
Remove each component CRU before you move the DS4500 Storage Server to a
new location or before you remove the chassis from its rack cabinet. This
precaution helps safeguard the equipment and ensures a smoother transition to the
new environment.
If you are moving the DS4500 Storage Server a short distance, and you have
sufficient assistance or equipment, you might be able to move the DS4500 Storage
Server without removing each component CRU. If you do not have sufficient
assistance or equipment, use the procedure in “Moving or relocating the DS4500
Storage Server” on page 40 to safely move the equipment to its new location.
If you are moving the DS4500 Storage Server a significant distance, be sure to
pack it in its original shipping container.
