Selecting a Site
Make sure that the installation area that you select has the following features:
■ A sturdy, level installation site that includes dedicated and properly
grounded (earthed) circuits, air conditioning, and static electricity
protection
IMPORTANT: The ProLiant ML330e/ML330 server must be operated only when in an
upright, vertical position.
■ 7.6 cm (3.0 inches) clearance on all sides of server for proper ventilation
■ A separate electrical circuit for the server
CAUTION: Protect the server from power fluctuations and temporary
interruptions with a regulating uninterruptible power supply (UPS). This device
protects the hardware from damage caused by power surges and voltage spikes
and keeps the system in operation during a power failure.
Unpacking the Server
Unpack the server, keyboard, and cables according to the instructions and
illustrations printed on the Quick Start poster.
