Server Warnings and Cautions

Before installing a server, be sure that you understand the following warnings and cautions.

WARNING!

To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to the equipment:

• Do not disable the power cord grounding plug. The grounding plug is an important safety feature.

• Plug the power cord into a grounded (earthed) electrical outlet that is easily accessible at all times.

• Unplug the power cord from the power supply to disconnect power to the equipment.

• Do not route the power cord where it can be walked on or pinched by items placed against it.

Pay particular attention to the plug, electrical outlet, and the point where the cord extends from the server.

WARNING!

To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the drives and the internal system components to cool before touching them.

WARNING!

This server is equipped with high speed fans. Keep away from hazardous moving fan blades during servicing.

WARNING!

This equipment is not suitable for use in locations where children are likely to be present.

CAUTION!

• Do not operate the server for long periods with the access panel open or removed. Operat- ing the server in this manner results in improper airow and improper cooling that can lead to

thermal damage.

• Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced.

• Replace only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer.

• Dispose of used batteries according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)

CAUTION!

ESD CAN DAMAGE DRIVES, BOARDS, AND OTHER PARTS. WE RECOMMEND THAT YOU PERFORM ALL PROCEDURES AT AN ESD WORKSTATION. IF ONE IS NOT AVAILABLE, PROVIDE SOME ESD PROTECTION BY WEARING AN ANTI-STATIC WRIST STRAP ATTACHED TO CHASSIS GROUND -- ANY UNPAINTED METAL SURFACE -- ON YOUR SERVER WHEN HANDLING PARTS.

Always handle boards carefully. They can be extremely sensitive to ESD. Hold boards only by their edges without any component and pin touching. After removing a board from its protective wrapper or from the system, place the board component side up on a grounded, static free surface. Use a conductive foam pad if available but not the board wrapper. Do not slide board over any surface.

System power on/off:

rack. Make sure the system is removed from the rack before opening the chassis, adding, or removing any non hot-plug components.

Hazardous conditions, devices and cables:

present on power, telephone, and communication cables. Turn off the system and discon-nect the cables attached to the system before servicing it. Otherwise, personal injury or equipment damage can result.

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) and ESD protection:

boards, and other parts. We recommend that you perform all procedures in this chapter only at an ESD workstation. If one is not available, provide some ESD protection by wearing an antistatic wrist strap attached to chassis ground (any unpainted metal surface on the server) when handling parts.

ESD and handling boards:

sensi-tive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). Hold boards only by their edges. After removing a board from its protective wrapper or from the system, place the board component side up on a grounded, static free surface. Use a conductive foam pad if available but not the board wrapper. Do not slide board over any surface.

Installing or removing jumpers:

over two jumper pins. Some jumpers have a small tab on top that can be gripped with n-gertips or with a pair of ne needle nosed pliers. If the jumpers do not have such a tab, take care when

using needle nosed pliers to remove or install a jumper; grip the narrow sides of the jumper with the pliers, never the wide sides. Gripping the wide sides can dam-age the contacts inside the jumper, causing intermittent problems with the function con-trolled by that jumper. Take care to grip with, but not squeeze, the pliers or other tool used to remove a jumper, or the pins on the board may bend or break.

To remove power from system, you must remove the system from

3-4 Removing and Installing the PCI Expansion Card

• Voltages can be present within the server whenever an AC power source is connected. This

voltage is present even when the main power switch is in the off position. Ensure that the system is powered off and all power sources have been disconnected from the server prior to installing a PCIe card.

• Failure to observe these warnings could result in personal injury or damage to equipment.

• The PCI riser assembly does not include a riser card or any cabling as standard. To install a

PCIe card, a riser card must be installed.

Follow these instructions to PCI Expansion card:

1. Remove the screw securing the riser bracket. Lift up the riser bracket out of system.

2. Loosen and remove the screw securing the slot cover from riser bracket.

3. Orient the PCIe card with the riser guide slot and push in the direction of the arrow until the PCIe card sits in the PCIe card connector.

NOTE:

Some riser brackets allow for single or multiple PCIe cards. Repeat steps 4-5 as necessary.

4. Secure the PCIe card with the screw.
