Maintenance
Refer to the following information for performing maintenance on your server, muting an alarm,
restoring factory defaults, or upgrading the software.
Alarm
All servers feature audible alarms inside the chassis to notify the user of cooling fans and power supply
failures.
The server contains both primary and redundant fans and power supplies. A failure of either of these
components causes the system to alarm and to automatically switch over to the redundant item. The
server will continue operating with the failed component.
You can mute the audible alarm and failure notification from the front of the server, and continue
working until you are able to service the failed component.
When a failure occurs, the audible alarm sounds and the red
Alarm Mute
button on the front of the
chassis flashes.
Tip:
Lift the clear cover and press the red Alarm Mute button to silence the audible alarm. The button will continue to flash as long as the
alarm state still exists.
Media Drive
The server uses an SSD media drive to store all media content.
Disk Space
The amount of free disk space that is available for clips is shown at the top of the Tria Explorer window.
The free space is shown in time (HH:MM:SS:FF) and percentage of free space on the drive. When the
amount of free space goes below 10% the text is highlighted in yellow. If the amount of free disk space
goes below 5% the text is highlighted in red.
Tip:
When the amount of free disk space goes below 5% you should consider removing unused content in order to free-up media disk space.
To assist you in locating older or unused content, the Clip Library contains Date Loaded and Date Played columns that can be used to sort
content.
To Replace the Media Drive
The media drive in the server can be replaced. This is useful for increasing the amount of storage,
replacing a failed drive, or moving your media library from one server to another.
Note:
You can only have a single media drive in the server at a time. If you want to use multiple SSDs in the server as the media drive, you
must set them up as a raid array.
1.
Power off the server and disconnect the power cords from the mains power.
2.
Locate the media drive at the front of the server.
3.
Slide the silver tabs on the drive doors to the right to unlock the doors.
4.
Pull the bay doors open and remove the drives.
ESD Susceptibility:
Static discharge can cause serious damage to sensitive semiconductor devices. Avoid handling the
server components in high static environments such as carpeted areas and when synthetic fiber clothing is worn. Touch the
frame to dissipate static charge before removing boards or drives from the chassis and exercise proper grounding precautions
when working on circuit boards.
