System reliability considerations
To help ensure proper cooling and system reliability, make sure:
v Each of the drive bays has either a drive or a filler panel installed.
v Each of the power supply bays has either a power supply or a filler panel
installed.
v
The cover is in place during normal operation.
v There is at least 50 mm (2 inches) of ventilated space at the sides of the server
and 100 mm (4 inches) at the rear of the server.
v
The cover is removed for no longer than 30 minutes while the server is
operating.
v The processor housing cover (if available on the server) that protects the
processor and memory area is removed for no longer that ten minutes while the
server is operating.
v A removed hot-swap drive is replaced within two minutes of removal.
v
Cables for optional adapters are routed according to the instructions provided
with the adapters (ensure that cables are not restricting air flow).
v The fans are operating correctly and the air flow is good.
v
A failed fan is replaced within 48 hours.
In addition, ensure that the environmental specifications for the system are met.
See “Features and specifications” on page 3.

Working inside a server with power on
The server supports hot-plug, hot-add, and hot-swap devices and it is designed to
operate safely while turned on with the cover removed. Follow these guidelines
when you work inside a server that is turned on:
v
Avoid loose-fitting clothing on your forearms. Button long-sleeved shirts before
working inside the server; do not wear cuff links while you are working inside the
server.
v Do not allow your necktie to hang inside the server.
v Remove jewelry, such as bracelets, necklaces, and loose-fitting wrist watches.
v Remove items from your shirt pocket (such as pens or pencils) that could fall into
the server as you lean over it.
v Take care to avoid dropping any metallic objects, such as paper clips, hair pins,
or screws, into the server.
Handling static-sensitive devices
Static electricity, though harmless to you, can seriously damage server components
or options.
Note: When you are adding an internal option, do not open the static-protective
package containing the option until you are instructed to do so.
When you handle options and other server components, take these precautions to
avoid damage from static electricity:
v Limit your movement. Movement can cause static electricity to build up around
you.
