During normal operations, all components mounted in the server, including the
dummy (filler) units, are properly grounded through the chassis.
Prior to performing maintenance, ensure that any static electricity is discharged from
the FRUs to be inserted and the person performing the maintenance. Both must be
properly grounded.
Ensure that the procedures below are followed for proper grounding.
