Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)
CAUTION
Perform the procedures in this product guide only at an electrostatic discharge (ESD)
workstation, because the server components can be extremely sensitive to ESD. If no
such station is available, you can reduce the risk of electrostatic discharge ESD
damage by doing the following:
Wear an antistatic wrist strap and attach it to a metal part of the server.
Touch the metal on the server chassis before touching the server components.
Keep part of your body in contact with the metal server chassis to dissipate the
static charge while handling the components.
Avoid moving around unnecessarily.
Hold the server components (especially boards) only by the edges.
Place the server components on a grounded, static-free surface. Use a
conductive foam pad if available but not the component wrapper.
Do not slide the components over any surface.
2.8
Cooling and Airflow
CAUTION
For proper cooling and airflow, always install all access covers before turning on the
system. Operating the system for longer than five minutes without the covers in
place can cause overheating and damage to system components.
