For all host computers that will be backed up by the RDX QuikStation, verify
that the host computer OS has iSCSI initiator software installed.
Verify all items are included in the accessory kit (see
page 11
).
Keep the packing materials and box in case you need to ship the unit later.
Select an appropriate location —The maximum recommended ambient
temperature for the RDX QuikStation is 35° C (95° F). Install the appliance in
an environment that is compatible with this temperature limit. Use a
ventilated rack to ensure the appliance receives adequate air flow required
for safe operation.
Select an appropriate power source — The AC input for the RDX QuikStation
is 100-240 VAC, and the rated input current is 2,0 -1,0A. Keep this information
in mind when selecting a power source to prevent circuit overload. Plug the
appliance’s power cord into a high-quality power strip that offers protection
from electrical noise and power surges. An uninterruptible power supply
(UPS) is recommended.
Ensure that the work area is free from conditions that could cause
electrostatic discharge (ESD) — Discharge static electricity from your body
by touching a known grounded surface, such as a computer’s metal chassis.
Ensure the rack is placed on level ground — Use a level when installing the
rack rails to prevent any potentially hazardous conditions caused by uneven
mechanical loading.
Obtain the following items to complete the rack installation instructions

iSCSI initiators are
included with Windows
Server 2008 and later. If
necessary, download
and install the
appropriate iSCSI
initiator from the
Microsoft web site or
from a third-party
vendor.
iSCSI initiators are
included with most
Linux operating systems.
If necessary, download
and install the
appropriate iSCSI
initiator from your Linux
Distribution web site or
from a third-party
vendor.
Macintosh systems
require the installation of
a third-party iSCSI
initiator. We recommend
that you download and
install an iSCSI initiator
that has been tested or
recommended for use
with your chosen backup
application.
