Manual

5. Check the airflow:

Airflow is provided by three, 8-cm, redundant, cooling fans -- plus one

hot spare fan. The system component layout was carefully designed to

promote sufficient airflow through the 2U rackmount space. Also note

that all power and data cables have been routed in such a way that they

do not block the airflow generated by the fans.

6. Supplying power to the system:

The last thing you must do is to provide input power to the system. Plug

the power cord from the power supply unit into a high-quality power

strip that offers protection from electrical noise and power surges. It is

recommended that you use an uninterruptible power supply (UPS).
