About the Parts Shipped to You
Standard features for the Sun Fire V890 server are installed at the factory. However,
if you ordered options such as a monitor, these will be shipped to you separately.
Also, you should have received the Solaris Media Kit and documentation for all
appropriate system software. Check that you have received everything you ordered.
Inspect the shipping carton for evidence of physical damage. If a shipping carton is
damaged, request that the carrier's agent be present when the carton is opened. Keep
all contents and packing material for the agent’s inspection. Unpacking instructions
are printed on the outside of the shipping carton.
