Handling precautions

Be sure to observe the following precautions for the proper functioning of the server. Ignoring the precautions may cause server malfunction or failure.

 Do not use any cell phones and switch off them near the server. Electric waves from such devices can cause

server to malfunction.

 Install the server in an appropriate place. For details, see Chapter 2 (2. Installation and Connection).  If a peripheral device is a not plug-and-play device, make sure that the server is off and unplug the power

cord before connecting/removing cables to/from the devices.

 Connect the provided power cord to a 100/200 VAC outlet.  Make sure that the access LED on the server is off before turning off the power or ejecting an optical disk.  Wait for at least 30 seconds before turning on the server after turning off the server. If any Uninterruptible

Power Supply (UPS) unit is connected, set it to wait for at least 30 seconds before turning on the server after power off.

 Do not press the POWER switch to turn on the server before the STATUS LED (amber) is unlit.

 Turn off the server and unplug the power cord before moving it.  Regularly clean the server to prevent various types of failure. See Chapter 1 Maintenance (2. Daily

Maintenance) in Maintenance Guide for details.

 Momentary voltage drop may occur due to lightning strike. To prevent this, use of UPS is recommended.  We do not guarantee that the server’s optical disk drive will play a copy-protected CD that does not conform

to standards.

 In the following cases, check and adjust the system clock before operation.

 After transportation  After storage

 After the server is used following a period of disuse, in which storage conditions did not conform to those

that guarantee server operations (temperature: 5C to 40C (when the high-temperature environment is

set: 5 to 48°C (it's subject to composition restrictions.)); humidity: 10% to 85% (10% to 80% (when

internal LTO is installed)).

 Check the system clock approximately once per month.  We recommend you store the server at room temperature. Keep the following storage conditions.

Temperature: 10C to 55C, Humidity: 10% to 85% (10% to 80% (when internal LTO is installed), No condensation of moisture)

 Do not power off or reset the server, nor disconnect the power cord before POST completes.  If this server, internal optional devices, and media set for the backup devices (tape cartridges) are moved

from a cold place to a warm place in a short time, condensation will occur and cause malfunctions and failures when these are used in such state. To protect important stored data and property, make sure to wait for a sufficient period to use the server and components in the operating environment.

Reference: Time effective at avoiding condensation in winter (more than 5C or more differences between

the room temperature and atmospheric temperature)

Disk devices: Approximately 2 to 3 hours T

 For optional devices, we recommend you use our NEC products. Even if they are successfully installed or

connected, installation of unsupported devices can cause the server to malfunction or even failure. You will be charged to repair failure or damage caused by use of such products even within warranty period.

Tips for your health and safety

Using a computer extensively may affect different parts of your body. Here are tips you should follow while working on

a computer to minimize strain on your body.

Keep proper posture

The basic body position for using a computer is sitting straight with

your hands on the keyboard parallel with the floor, and your eyes

directed slightly downward toward the monitor. With the proper

posture described above, no unnecessary strain is applied on any

part of your body, in other words when your muscles are most

relaxed.

Working on the computer with bad posture such as hunching over or

being too close to the monitor could cause fatigue or deteriorated

eyesight.

Adjust the angle of your display

Most display units are designed for adjustment of the horizontal and

vertical angles. This adjustment is important to prevent the screen

from reflecting bright lights and to make the display contents easy to

see. Working without adjusting the display to a comfortable angle

makes it difficult for you to maintain a proper posture and you will

get tired easily. Adjust the viewing angle before use.

Adjust the brightness and contrast of the display

Display screens have functions to control brightness and contrast.

The most suitable brightness/contrast depends on age, individuals,

and environment, so adjust it to suit your preferences. A too bright

or too dark display is bad for your eyes.

Adjust the angle of keyboard

Some keyboards are ergonomically designed, which allow the angle

to be adjusted. Adjusting the angle of the keyboard is effective to

reduce tension on your shoulders, arms, and fingers.

Clean your equipment

Keeping your equipment clean is important not only for the appearance but also for functional and safety reasons. A

dusty monitor makes it difficult to see the display contents, so clean it regularly.

Take rest breaks

When you feel tired, take a break. Light exercise is also

recommended.

Important

Note

Tips

To build a RAID system, change the jumper switch on motherboard, as shown below.

If you use hard disk drives in the RAID system or change the RAID level,

initialize the hard disk drives. If the hard disk drive used in the RAID system

contains valuable data, be sure to backup the hard disk drive before

installing the RAID controller and configuring the RAID system.

In the RAID system, use hard disk drives that have the same specifications

(capacity, rotational speed, and standard) for each disk array.

Logical drives can be created even with only one physical device.
