Additional warnings
and cautions
Before attempting to service the EMC hardware described in this
document, observe the following additional Warnings and Cautions:
The hardware enclosure contains no user-serviceable parts, so it
should not be moved or opened for any reason by untrained persons.
If the hardware needs to be relocated or repaired, only qualified
personnel familiar with safety procedures for electrical equipment
and EMC hardware should access components inside the unit or
move the unit.
This product operates at high voltages. To protect against physical
harm, power off the system whenever possible while servicing.
In case of fire or other emergency involving the EMC product, isolate
the product’s power and alert appropriate personnel.
Trained personnel are advised to exercise great care at all times
when working on EMC hardware.
Remember to:
◆Remove rings, watches, or other jewelry and neckties before you begin
any procedures.
◆Use caution near any moving part and any part that may start
unexpectedly such as fans, motors, solenoids, etc.
◆Always use the correct tools for the job.
◆Always use the correct replacement parts.
◆Keep all paperwork, including incident reports, up to date, complete,
and accurate.

Warnings and Cautions
CAUTION
!
Static precautionsEMC incorporates state-of-the-art technology in its designs, including
the use of LSI and VLSI components. These chips are very susceptible
to damage caused by static discharge and need to be handled
accordingly.
Before handling printed circuit boards or other parts containing
LSI and/or VLSI components, observe the following precautions:
◆Store all printed circuit boards in antistatic bags.
◆Use a ground strap whenever you handle a printed circuit board.
◆Unless specifically designed for non disruptive replacement, never
plug or unplug printed circuit boards with the power on. Severe
component damage may result.

Planning overview
Tab le 1Pre-installation responsibility summary
This section provides an overview of the planning requirements for
EMC® Disk Library for mainframe (DLm) installation. It reviews
EMC’s responsibilities and outlines customer’s responsibilities.
Note: Inform EMC of any labor union-based restrictions or security clearance
requirements prior to delivery.
The DLm systems must be installed in a properly equipped computer
room, with controlled temperature and humidity, proper airflow and
ventilation, proper power and grounding, system cable routing
facilities, fire equipment, and so on. Although a raised floor is not
required, it is recommended. One or more planning sessions with
your EMC Systems Engineer and EMC Customer Support
Representative will be necessary to close all the details related to
installation. Table 1 on p ag e 18 lists the responsibility summary at the
first planning session.
