Stabilize the Rack for Installation
Use this procedure to stabilize the rack before installing Oracle Database Appliance X9-2-HA.
Caution:

stabilize the rack cabinet, and extend all anti-tilt devices before installing the server.
Refer to your rack cabinet documentation for more detailed instructions.
1.
When unpacking at the installation site, verify that the rack cabinet leveling feet are up
before moving the rack cabinet.
2.
Remove the front and rear doors of the rack cabinet if they interfere with the installation.
3.
To prevent the rack cabinet from tipping during the installation, fully extend the rack
cabinet's anti-tilt legs or anti-tilt bar, which are located at the bottom front of the rack
cabinet.
4.
If there are leveling feet beneath the rack cabinet to prevent it from rolling, extend these
leveling feet fully downward to the floor once the rack cabinet is where it will reside in the
data center.
5.
When moving a rack cabinet to a different location, including repacking, verify that rack
cabinet leveling feet are up before moving the rack cabinet.
