Figure 4-2 Carefully Push Oracle Exadata Rack from Behind
Oracle recommends having two people to move the rack: one person in front and
one person in back to help guide the rack. When transporting configured racks
from one location to another, take care to move them slowly, 0.65 meters per
second (2.13 feet per second) or slower.
Carefully examine the transportation path. Avoid obstacles such as doorways or
elevator thresholds that can cause abrupt stops or shocks. Go around obstacles
by using ramps or lifts to enable smooth transport.
WARNING:
•
Never attempt to move Oracle Exadata Rack by pushing on the side
panels. Pushing on the side panels can tip the rack over. This can cause
serious personal injury or death as well as damage to the equipment.
•
Never tip or rock Oracle Exadata Rack because the rack can fall over.
4.3.2 Stabilizing Oracle Exadata Rack
After moving Oracle Exadata Rack to the installation site, stabilize the rack to ensure
that it does not move or tip over.
You can stabilize the rack permanently by extending the rack leveling feet.
