hot-swap component for any additional procedures that you might have to
perform before you remove or install the component.
v When you have to access the inside of the server, you might find it easier to lay
the server on its side.
v
When you are finished working on the server, reinstall all safety shields, guards,
labels, and ground wires.
v

System reliability guidelines
To help ensure proper system cooling and system reliability, make sure that the
following requirements are met:
v Each of the drive bays has a drive or a filler panel and electromagnetic
compatibility (EMC) shield installed in it.
v
There is adequate space around the server to allow the server cooling system to
work properly. Leave approximately 50 mm (2.0 in.) of open space around the
front and rear of the server. Do not place objects in front of the fans. For proper
cooling and airflow, replace the server cover before turning on the server.
Operating the server for extended periods of time (more than 30 minutes) with
the server cover removed might damage server components.
v
You have followed the cabling instructions that come with optional adapters.
v You have replaced a failed fan within 48 hours.
Working inside the server with the power on
Attention: Static electricity that is released to internal server components when
the server is powered on might cause the server to halt, which could result in the
loss of data. To avoid this potential problem, always use an electrostatic-discharge
wrist strap or other grounding system when working inside the server with the
power on.
The server (some models) supports hot-swap devices and is designed to operate
safely while it is turned on and the cover is removed. Follow these guidelines when
you work inside a server that is turned on.
v Avoid wearing 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 or scarf to hang inside the server.
v Remove jewelry, such as bracelets, necklaces, rings, and loose-fitting wrist
watches.
v
Remove items from your shirt pocket, such as pens and pencils, that could fall
into the server as you lean over it.
v
Avoid dropping any metallic objects, such as paper clips, hairpins, and screws,
into the server.
Handling static-sensitive devices
Attention: Static electricity can damage the server and other electronic devices.
To avoid damage, keep static-sensitive devices in their static-protective packages
until you are ready to install them.
To reduce the possibility of electrostatic discharge, observe the following
precautions:
