Basicguidelines

Beforeyouusetheserver,besuretoreadandunderstandthefollowingguidelines:
•BesuretoreadandunderstandtheSafetyInformationandtheWarrantyandSupportInformationat http://www.lenovo.com/support,and“Guidelines”onpage15.Theinformationwillhelpyouworksafely.
•Whenyouinstallyournewserver,taketheopportunitytodownloadandapplythemostrecentrmware updates.Thisstepwillhelptoensurethatanyknownissuesareaddressedandthatyourserveris readytofunctionatmaximumlevelsofperformance.T odownloadrmwareupdatesforyourserver, dothefollowing:
1.Gotohttp://www.lenovo.com/support.
2.ClickDownload&Drivers➙ThinkServerandthenfollowtheinstructionsontheWebpageto downloadrmwareupdatesforyourserver.
•Beforeyouinstalloptionalhardwaredevices,makesurethattheserverisworkingcorrectly.Ifan operatingsystemisinstalled,turnontheserverandmakesurethattheoperatingsystemstarts.Ifno operatingsystemisinstalled,makesurethatamessageBOOTMGRismissingisdisplayed,indicatingthatan operatingsystemwasnotfoundbuttheserverisworkingcorrectly.Iftheserverisnotworkingcorrectly, refertoChapter7“Troubleshootinganddiagnostics”onpage75
•Observegoodhousekeepingintheareawhereyouareworking.Putremovedcoversandotherparts inasafeplace.
•Ifyoumustturnontheserverwhiletheservercoverisremoved,makesurethatnooneisneartheserver andthatnotoolsorotherobjectshavebeenleftinsidetheserver.
•Donotattempttoliftanobjectthatyouthinkistooheavyforyou.Ifyouhavetoliftaheavyobject, observethefollowingprecautions:
fordetaileddiagnosticinformation.
–Makesurethatyoucanstandsafelywithoutslipping. –Distributetheweightoftheobjectequallybetweenyourfeet. –Useaslowliftingforce.Nevermovesuddenlyortwistwhenyouliftaheavyobject. –Toavoidstrainingthemusclesinyourback,liftbystandingorbypushingupwithyourlegmuscles.

•Aftercompletinganyinstallation,removal,orreplacementprocedure,reinstallallsafetyshields,guards, labels,andgroundwires.
•Foralistofsupportedoptionaldevicesfortheserver,gotohttp://www.lenovo.com/thinkserver.
•Whenworkinginsidetheserver,youmightndsometaskseasierifyoulaytheserveronitsside.Y ou mightneedtorstpivotthefootstandsinwardandthenlaythecomputeronitsside.

Systemreliabilityguidelines

Tohelpensurepropercoolingandsystemreliability,makesurethatyoufollowtheseguidelines:
•EverydrivebayhasaninternaldriveinstalledoranElectroMagneticCompatibility(EMC)shieldinstalled.
•Iftheserverhasredundantpower,everypowersupplybayhasapowersupplyassemblyinstalled.
•Leaveadequatespacearoundtheservertomakesurethattheservercoolingsystemworkswell.
•Properlyroutethecables.Forsomeoptions,suchasPCIcards,followthecablinginstructionsthat comewiththeoptions.
•Makesurethatyoureplaceafailingfanwithin48hours.
•Whenreplacingahot-swapdrive,installthenewhot-swapdrivewithintwominutesofremoval.
•Donotremoveanyairductorairbafeswhiletheserverisrunning.Operatingtheserverwithoutthe airductorairbafesmightcausethemicroprocessortooverheat.
•Thesecondmicroprocessorsocketalwayscontainseitheramicroprocessorsocketcoverora microprocessorandheatsinkassembly.

Handlingstatic-sensitivedevices

Attention:
Donotopenthestatic-protectivepackagecontainingthenewpartuntilthedefectiveparthasbeenremovedfromthe serverandyouarereadytoinstallthenewpart.Staticelectricity,althoughharmlesstoyou,canseriouslydamage servercomponentsandparts.
Whenyouhandleserverpartsandcomponents,taketheseprecautionstoavoidstatic-electricitydamage:
•Limityourmovement.Movementcancausestaticelectricitytobuilduparoundyou.
•Wearanelectrostatic-dischargewriststrap,ifoneisavailable.
•Alwayscarefullyhandlethepartsandothercomponents(suchasPCIcards,memorymodules,system boards,andmicroprocessors)byitsedgesoritsframe.Donottouchsolderjoints,pins,orexposed circuitry.
•Preventothersfromtouchingthepartsandothercomputercomponents.
•Beforeyoureplaceanewpart,touchthestatic-protectivepackagecontainingthenewparttoametal expansion-slotcoverorotherunpaintedmetalsurfaceontheserverforatleasttwoseconds.This reducesstaticelectricityfromthepackageandyourbody.
