Preparation
Site Selection
Read the safety instructions in your Safety, Environmental, and Regulatory Information booklet before
you begin.
The following criteria should be considered when selecting a site to install the appliance:
• Before you begin, review the safety instructions located at
https://www.arista.com/support/product-documentation.
• Begin installing the rails in the allotted space that is closest to the bottom of the rack enclosure.
• Other Requirements: Select a site where liquids or objects cannot fall onto the equipment and foreign
objects are not drawn into the ventilation holes. Verify these guidelines are met:
• Clearance areas to the front and rear panels allow for unrestricted cabling.
• All front and rear panel indicators can be easily read.
• Power cords can reach from the power outlet to the connector on the rear panel.
Note: All power connections must be removed to de-energize the unit.
Note: This unit is intended for installation in restricted access areas.
Receiving and Inspecting the Equipment
Upon receiving the appliance, inspect the shipping boxes and record any external damage. Retain packing
materials if you suspect that part of the shipment is damaged; the carrier may need to inspect them.
If the boxes were not damaged in transit, unpack them carefully. Ensure that you do not discard any
accessories that may be packaged in the same box as the main unit.
Inspect the packing list and confirm that you received all listed items. Compare the packing list with your
purchase order.
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Precautions
Observe these guidelines to avoid ESD damage when installing or servicing the appliance.
• Assemble or disassemble equipment only in a static-free work area.
5

• Use a conductive work surface (such as an anti-static mat) to dissipate static charge.
• Wear a conductive wrist strap to dissipate static charge accumulation.
• Minimize handling of assemblies and components.
• Keep replacement parts in their original static-free packaging.
• Remove all plastic, foam, vinyl, paper, and other static-generating materials from the work area.
• Use tools that do not create ESD.
Setting up your System
Complete the following steps to set up your system:
1. Unpack the system.
2. Remove the I/O connector cover from the system connectors.
Note: Caution! While installing the system, ensure that it is properly aligned with the slot on the
enclosure to prevent damage to the system connectors.
3. Install the system in the enclosure.
4. Turn on the enclosure.
Note: Wait for the chassis to initialize before you press the power button.
5. Press the power button on the system.
Alternatively, you can also turn on the system by using:
• The system IPMI.
• The enclosure Chassis Management Controller (CMC), after the system IPMI is configured on the CMC.
CloudEOS and vEOS Physical Appliance Setup
You may need the following items to perform the procedures in this section:
• Key to the system key-lock.
• #1 and #2 Phillips screwdriver.
• Wrist grounding strap connected to ground.
• Rack mount kit instructions located in the shipping box.
Before working inside your system
1. Turn off the system, including all attached peripherals.
2. Disconnect the system from the electrical outlet and disconnect the peripherals.
3. Remove the system cover.
Front Bezel
Complete the following tasks to remove the front bezel.
