Installation Safety Guidelines
System Reliability Guidelines
To help ensure proper cooling and system reliability, make sure that:
• Each of the drive bays has a drive tray installed in it.
• If the server has redundant power, each of the power-supply bays has a
power supply installed in it.
• Allow the server cooling system to work properly by leaving
approximately 50mm (2.0 in.) of open space around the front and rear of
the server.
• There are no objects in front of the fans.
• You follow cabling instructions that come with optional adapters.
• You replace a failed fan within 48 hours.
• You do not remove the air baffle while the server is running since
operating the server without the air baffle might overheat the
microprocessor.
Static-Sensitive Devices
• Static electricity can damage electronic devices, including your server. To
avoid damage, keep static-sensitive devices in their packages until you
are ready to install them.
• Limit your movements as they build up static electricity around you.
• Handle the device carefully, holding it by its edges or frame.
• Do not touch solder joints, pins, or exposed circuitry.
• Do not leave the device where others can handle and damage it.
• While the device is still in its static-protective package, touch it to an
unpainted metal part of the server for at least two seconds to drain static
electricity from the package and from your body.
• Remove the device from its package and install it directly into the server
without setting down the device. If you need to set down the device, place
