Safety notes
This section provides notes on using the server safely. Read this section carefully to ensure proper and safe use
of the server. For symbols, refer to Safety precautions.
General
WARNING
Do not use the server for services where human life may be at stake or high reliability is required.
This server is not intended for use in medical, nuclear, aerospace, mass transit or other applications
where
human life may be at stake or high reliability is required, nor is it
intended for use in controlling such
applications. We disclaim liability for any personal injury and property damages caused by such use of this
server.
Do not use the server if any smoke, odor, or noise is present.
If smoke, odor, or noise is present, immediately turn off the server and disconnect the power plug from the
outlet, then contact the store where you purchased the product or
your maintenance service company.
Using the server in such conditions may cause a fire.
Do not insert needles or metal objects.
Do not insert needles or metal objects into ventilation holes in the server or openings in the optical disk
drive. Doing so may cause an electric shock.
Use a rack that conforms to the designated standard
This server can be mounted onto a 19-inch rack that conforms to EIA standards. Do not mount the server
onto any rack that does not conform to EIA standards. Doing so may cause a server malfunction, personal
injury, or damage to peripheral devices.
For more information about racks that can be used with the
server, consult with your maintenance service company.
Use the server only under the specified environment
Do not install the server rack in any environment that is not suitable for installation.
Installation in an unsuitable environment is harmful for the server and other systems installed in the rack
and may cause fire or personal injury due to the rack falling.
For a detailed explanation on installation
environments or seismic reinforcement, consult with the instruction manual supplied with the rack or your
maintenance service company.
CAUTION
Keep water or foreign matter away from the server.
Do not let any liquid such as water or foreign materials including pins or paper clips enter the server.
Failure to follow this warning may cause an electric shock, a fire, or failure of the server. When such thing
s
accidentally enter the server, immediately turn off the power and disconnect the power plug from the
outlet. Do not disassemble the server, and contact the store where you purchased the product
or your
maintenance service company.

Rack installation
CAUTION
Do not attempt to carry or install the server alone
More than two people are required to carry or install the rack. Otherwise, the rack may fall, resulting in
personal injury or damage to peripheral devices. In partic
ular, tall racks such as a 44U rack become
unstable unless steadied with a stabilizer. Make sure that two or more people hold the rack to carry or
install the rack.
Do not install with the load weight distributed unevenly
To avoid unevenly distributing the load of the rack and server, install a stabilizer or connect multiple racks
to distribute the weight. Otherwise, the rack may fall, resulting in personal injury.
Do not install components alone, and check the door hinge pins of the rack
Two or more people are required to install the rack components such as the door or rails. When installing
the door, make sure that both upper and lower hinge pins are held in place. Incomplete attachment m ay
cause components to fall off as well as personal injury.
Do not extend any device from the rack that is not stabilized
When extending a device from the rack, make sure that the rack is stable (by using a stabilizer or seismic
reinforcement). Otherwise, the rack may fall, resulting in personal injury.
Do not extend more than one device out of the rack
Extending multiple devices from the rack may cause the rack to fall, resulting in personal injury. Extend
only one device at one time.
Do not exceed the rated capacity of the power supply when connecting devices
To prevent burn injuries, fire, and damage to the server, make sure the load on the branch circuit that
supplies power to the rack will not exceed the rated load. For inquiries regarding the installation or wiring of
the power supply system, consult with the company that performed the installation or wiring, or the power
company that services your area.

Power supply and power cord use
WARNING
Do not hold the power plug with a wet hand.
Do not disconnect/connect the plug while your hands are wet. Failure to follow this warning may cause an
electric shock.
Do not connect the ground wire to a gas pipe.
Never connect the ground wire to a gas pipe. Failure to follow this warning may cause a gas explosion.
CAUTION
Plug in to a proper power source.
Use a grounded outlet with the specified voltage. Use of an outlet with a voltage other than that specified
causes fire and electrical leakage. Do not install the server in any environment that requires an extension
cord.
Connecting to a cord that does not conform to the power supply specs of the server causes
overheating, resulting in fire.
If you want to use an AC cord set with a ground wire of class 0I, be sure to connect the ground wire before
inserting the power plug into the outlet. Before disconnecting the ground wire, be sure to disconnect the
power plug from the output.
Do not connect many cords into a single outlet by using extension cords.
The electric current exceeding the rated flow overheats the outlet, which may cause a fire.
Insert the power plug into the outlet as far as it goes.
Heat generation resulting from a halfway inserted power plug (imperfect contact) may cause a fire. Heat
will also be generated if condensation is formed on dusty blades of the halfway inserted plug, increasing
the possibility of fire.
Do not use any unauthorized interface cable.
Use only the interface cables provided with the server. Electric curren
t that exceeds the amount allowed
could cause fire.
Also, observe the following precautions to prevent electrical shock or fire caused by a
damaged power cord.
• Do not stretch the cord harness
• Do not bend the power cord.
• Do not twist the power cord
• Do not step on the power cord.
• Uncoil the power cord before use
• Do not secure the power cord with staples or
equivalents
• Do not pinch the power cord
• Keep chemicals away from the power cord

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.

PCI Card
This server provides a riser card (2 types) and a slot for RAID controller. The riser card can connect three
Full Height PCI card, two Low Profile PCI card.
Important
You must avoid static electricity to work with the procedure below. For
details, refer to Chapter 2 (1.2 Anti-static Measures).
1.17.1
Notes
Read the following notes when installing or removing a PCI card.
• Do not touch the terminals of the riser cards and the leads of electronic components with your bare
hand. Fingerprints and dust left on them cause the server to malfunction due to a connection failure or
damage to the leads.
• Available type of PCI card depends on riser card. Make sure the card type before connecting it to riser
card.
• The server provides no connector to connect a LED connector which is supplied in RAID Controller
used to indicate disk access.
• PCI slot number "1A" is assigned to the RAID controller slot,"1B, 2B, 3C" are assigned to the riser card
for Full Height PCI cards, "1C, 2C" are assigned to the riser card for Low Profile PCI cards, and “1D” is
assigned to LAN Riser Card slot.
• The search order for PCI bus slot on boot is as follows.
Slot 1A (dedicated to RAID Controller) → Slot 1B (Full height card slot) → Slot 2B (Full height card slot)
→ Slot 1C (Low profile card slot) → Slot 2C (Low profile card slot) → Slot 3C (Full height card slot) →
Slot 1D (dedicated to LAN riser card)
• The PCI devices of the same type (including onboard PCI device) may be recognized in different order
from that described above, depending on OS or RAID Configuration Utility. Check the slot location of
PCI device by PCI bus number, device number and function number shown in the table below.
PCI device Bus number Device number Function number
Onboard NIC1
02h 0 0
Onboard NIC2
02h 0 1

• If an additional LAN card is installed, it is hard to push the catch of the connector with your finger that is
connected to the LAN card. Disconnect the connector pushing the catch with a standard screwdriver. At
this time, be very careful for the screwdriver not to damage the LAN card.
• If a bootable device such as a PCI card or USB device is added, the boot order may change.
In BIOS Setup Utility, select Hard Drive BBS Priorities from the Boot menu, and then specify a higher
priority for the boot device.
Boot → Hard Drive BBS Priorities → Check the display
If the boot device is an HDD under an optional RAID Controller, the display is (Bus xx Dev 00) PCI
RAID Adapter. Note that the value for xx changes depending on the PCI slot where a RAID board is
installed.
• For a RAID Controller, LAN card (network boot), or Fibre Channel controller, if no hard disk drive on
which an OS is installed is connected, set the option ROM for that slot to Disabled. Refer to Chapter 2
(1. Detail of System BIOS) in "Maintenance Guide" for how to specify it.

board, refer to the manual supplied with it.
Tips
• Different boards mounted on the same bus operate at the lower frequency.
• When the operation performance of a PCI card is higher than the PCI slot on the
server, the PCI card
operates with the performance of the PCI slot on the
server.

Use of Internal hard disk drives in the RAID System
This section describes how to use the hard disk drives installed in the HDD cage at the front of the server in the
RAID System.
Important
If you use hard disk drive
s in the RAID System or change the RAID level,
initialize the hard disk drives. If the hard disk drive
contains valuable data,
be sure to backup the hard disk drive befo
re installing the RAID Controller
and configuring the RAID System.
Note
In the RAID System, use hard disk drives that have the same specifications
(capacity, rotational speed, and standard) for each Disk Array.
Tips
Logical Drives can be created even with only one Physical Device.
If using internal hard disk drives in RAID System with an optional RAID Controller (N8103-149/150/151/160)
installed in the server, the SATA cable needs to be rewired.
