Safety Precautions
Read these instructions carefully before you install, operate, or transport the EonStor
DS RAID systems and JBODs.
Installation and Operation
Install the rack cabinet and the associated equipment at a site where
the ambient temperature stays lower than 35
C.
Install the power source socket outlet near the enclosure where it is
easily accessible and ground the rack cabinet.
Secure airflow clearance inside and around the rack cabinet.
- Secure an 18 to 20cm clearance on the rear side.
- Do not cover the openings at the front and rear of the enclosure.
- Route cables inside the rack cabinet.
Always close the drawers once you have performed your maintenance
task, leaving the drawers opened will affect the airflow efficiency.
Secure each enclosure module using its retaining screws.
Place power cords and other cables away from foot traffic. Do not place
objects on power cords and make sure they do not rest against data
cables.
Install all modules to the enclosure before powering on the system.
Ensure that the correct power range is being used before powering on
the device.
DO NOT remove panels or replaceable modules during operation
unless you are performing a maintenance task. During maintenance,
removed panels or modules should be replaced as swift as possible.
If the enclosure is not going to be used for a long period of time,
disconnect it from the mains to avoid transient over-voltage.
For power source redundancy, please make sure that at least two of the
three PSUs are plugged into two different power sources (eg. to
different circuit breakers).
