EonStor A16E-G2130-4 Installation and Hardware Reference Manual
and will consequently lead to the system overheating, which can cause
irreparable damage.
• If a module fails, leave it in place until you have a replacement unit and you are
ready to replace it.
• Airflow Consideration: The subsystem requires an airflow clearance, especially
at the front and rear. The airflow direction is from front to back.
• Handle subsystem modules using the retention screws, eject levers, and the metal
frames/face plates. Avoid touching PCB boards and connector pins.
• To comply with safety, emission, or thermal requirements, none of the covers or
replaceable modules should be removed. Make sure that all enclosure modules
and covers are securely in place during operation.
• Be sure that the rack cabinet into which the subsystem chassis will be installed
provides sufficient ventilation channels and airflow circulation around the
subsystem.
• Provide a soft, clean surface to place your subsystem on before working on it.
Servicing on a rough surface may damage the exterior of the chassis.
• If it is necessary to transport the subsystem, repackage all drives separately.
• Dual-redundant controller models come with two controller modules that must
be installed into the subsystem. Single controller modules come with a single
controller module and a metal sheet is placed over the lower controller bay at the
rear of the subsystem. Since single-controller modules cannot be upgraded, this
metal sheet should NEVER be removed.
ESD Precautions
Observe all conventional anti-ESD methods while handling system
modules. The use of a grounded wrist strap and an anti-static work pad are
recommended. Avoid dust and debris in your work area.
