If the airflow vents at the rear of the chassis are blocked by cables or labels, it can lead to premature 

component failures due to overheating.

If you are adding nodes to an existing NetApp HCI installation, ensure that the cabling and network 

configuration of the nodes that you add are identical to the existing installation.
