Step 4 – Prepare the library for installation
Prepare the library as follows:
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 your computer’s metal chassis.
Locate an appropriate area for the library. The library must
have a level surface near a readily accessible outlet. In
addition, there must be approximately 6 inches (15 cm) of
open area behind the library for adequate air flow.
If you have a rack-mount library, make sure that your rack has
extension support legs and that you have at least four people
or two people and a small fork lift to lift the library into the
rack.
If you have a standalone library, access the handles by
removing the side panels as described below.
Using a flat-blade screwdriver, loosen the captive screws
(two on each panel) at the rear of the library.
