1.2 Installation Safety

Installation Guide 1. Installation
1.3 Before You Begin
Safety is the number one priority for personnel responsible for installing the OpenFlex F3100 and E3000
platform. This section outlines what to consider before performing an installation.
Protect Yourself and Others
Before any installation of an OpenFlex F3100 and E3000 it is important to take steps to keep all personnel
performing the installation (or individuals near the installation site safe). Make sure all paths and floors are
clean and free of obstacles. Do not wear clothing that is loose or can become tangled or catch on anything,
or clothing that is too tight and may restrict movement. Read all safety labels and instructions in this manual
and on the equipment being used for installation. Never lift the E3000 alone. It should always be teamlifted.
When installing the unit in a rack, it is highly recommended that you install it at the lowest possible U height
of the rack. This is intended to prevent an imbalanced load and it keeps the center of gravity low on the rack
to help prevent tipping hazards.
Protect Your Equipment
Always use the proper tooling outlined in this document during installation. This includes torque
specifications and driver heads when installing screws, lifting equipment, and safety equipment, as well
as the E3000 and F3100s themselves. Always respect the ESD requirements outlined at your site. Use
ESD mitigation and prevention equipment to prevent discharges that may damage equipment. During
installation, do not tip the enclosure.
The following is a list of safety equipment that should be considered before proceeding:
•Safety Shoes/Steel-toed Boots (ESD Safe is a plus)
•Lifting equipment
•ESD mitigation equipment
•Safety vests and hard hats
•Rack support or anchoring equipment
Warning: Never lift the chassis by the handles on the rear fan modules! They are not intended
to support the weight of the unit. Injury or damage to the unit is likely.

Installation Guide 1. Installation
1.3 Before You Begin
The installation process for the OpenFlex F3100 and E3000 happens in four basic phases: Unpacking,
Chassis Installation, Device Installation, and Initial Bringup. The following procedure outlines the steps for
Chassis and Device Installation in a rack.
1.3.1 DHCP
When the E3000 BMC module is powered on, it will try to establish an IP address using DHCP. The E3000
and F3100 require access to a DHCP Server to access the OCGUI. Access to a DHCP server should be
setup ahead of time to ensure the installation of the product is not gated. If a DHCP server is not present
on the network that the E3000 is connected to, access to the BMC and the OCGUI will not be available.
1.3.2 How to Report Damage
During the installation process, there are a number of inspection steps where the installation team should
be looking for damage to the product that may have occurred during shipment. If damage is found,
document the items using the following process.
Step 1 : Take two digital photos of the damaged packaging or component, one closeup shot showing
the damage in detail and one further out so the support engineers working the case can see
where the damage occurred.
Step 2 : Open a web browser and go to https://portal.wdc.com/Support/s/login/.
