Notes
Become familiar with the safety and handling
guidelines specified under “Safety information” on
page 230. These guidelines will help you work
safely while working with the server or options.
You do not need to turn off the server to install or
replace hot-swap power supplies, hot-swap
drives, hot-swap fans, or hot-plug PCI adapters.
The orange color on components and labels in
the server indicates hot-swap or hot-plug
components. This means that you can install or
remove the component while the system is
running, provided that the system is configured to
support this function. For complete details about
installing or removing a hot-swap or hot-plug
component, see the information provided in this
chapter.
The blue color on components and labels
indicates touch points where a component can be
gripped, a latch moved, and so on.
Make sure that you have an adequate number of
properly grounded electrical outlets for the server,
monitor, and any other options that you intend to
install.
Place the server in a location that is dry. Rain or
spilled liquids might damage the server.
Be sure to leave space around the server to
allow the server cooling system to work properly.
Ÿ
On a tower model, leave about 127 mm (5
in.) of space around the front and rear of the
server.
Ÿ
On a rack model, refer to the documentation
that comes with the rack.
Leave about 50 mm (2 inches) of ventilated space
on the right and left sides of the server to allow
the server cooling system to work properly.
Leave 100 mm (4 inches) of clearance at the rear
of the server for cables.
Have a supply of 1 MB and 2 MB, 3.5-inch
diskettes available.
Back up all important data before you make
changes to disk drives.
Have a small, flat-blade screwdriver available.
