Safety and Tools Requirements
This chapter describes the safety and system precautions you must take when
servicing the system. It also lists the tools and equipment you will need.
1.1 Safety Precautions
For your protection, observe the following safety precautions when servicing your
equipment:
■ Follow all cautions, warnings, and instructions marked on the equipment.
■ Never push objects of any kind through openings in the equipment as they may
touch dangerous voltage points or short out components that could result in fire
or electric shock.
■ Refer servicing of equipment to qualified personnel.
To protect both yourself and the equipment, observe the following safety
precautions:
TABLE 1-1 Safety Precautions
Item Problem Precaution
ESD wrist or
foot strap
ESD mat ESD Using an approved ESD mat provides protection from static damage
Electro-Static
Discharge (ESD)
Connect the ESD banana connector to your system and wear the wrist
strap or foot strap when handling printed circuit boards. Each system
except for the Sun Fire 3800 has an ESD socket.
when used with a wrist strap or foot strap. The mat also cushions and
protects small parts that are attached to printed circuit boards.

You can safely remove board or component from the system when
the OK to remove LED (amber or blue) is lit.
1.3 System Precautions
Ensure that the voltage and frequency of the power outlet to be used matches the
electrical rating labels on the equipment.
Wear an ESD wrist/foot strap when handling any magnetic storage devices,
CPU/Memory boards, or other printed circuit boards.
Use only properly grounded power outlets as described in the installation guides.
Caution – DO NOT make mechanical or electrical modifications to the system or
the cabinet. Sun Microsystems is not responsible for regulatory compliance of
modified cabinets.
Caution – The chassis AC power cord(s) must remain connected to ensure a proper
ground.
1.3.1 Captive Screws
Caution – Completely loosen all captive screws before ejecting the System
Controller board, power supplies, and I/O assemblies. Captive screws that have not
been completely loosened may cause damage to the System Controller board, power
supplies, or I/O assemblies.
1.3.2 Fan Speed Message
The fan speed message states “WARNING” instead of “NOTICE” when the fan
changes speed. Fans will go from low to high speed if all of the system fans are not
providing cooling, or when the environmental threshold is exceeded for the CPU.
Use the showenv -v command to obtain CPU environmental threshold
information. Refer to the Sun Fire 6800/4810/4800/3800 System Controller Command
Reference Manual for correct usage of the showenv command. The system is OK and
is still within the thermal specification when this “WARNING” message appears.
Chapter 1 Safety and Tools Requirements 1-3
1.3.3 Sun Fire Cabinet Fan Tray Power Switches
If the Sun Fire cabinet fan trays are not operating, make sure that the fan trays are
switched on. The fan tray power switches are located in the back of each cabinet fan
tray, below the power cord socket.
1.3.4 Firmware On Replacement Boards and
Assemblies
After installing a board or assembly, use the showboards -p proms command to
determine if the firmware needs to be updated. If an update is required, use either
the system controller flashupdate -f or flashupdate -c command. Refer to
the Sun Fire 6800/4810/4800/3800 System Controller Command Reference Manual for
correct usage of the flashupdate command.
Note – Do not use the flashupdate -u command as shown in onscreen messages.
Using flashupdate -u can result in incompatibility issues that require a reboot of
the system controller and domains.
You can find a list of the most current patches for bug fixes and system firmware
upgrade on SunSolve Online
patches, including Year 2000 patches, to all users. Other product and OS patches are
available to SunSpectrum
Care Center or your service provider if you need assistance in accessing the list of
current patches and system firmware upgrades.

Switzerland for pluggable type A equipment. To comply with national requirements,
customers in Switzerland who receive a standalone Sun Fire Sun Fire 3800 system
(shipped without a rack) must provide a means to connect the system to a pluggable
type B power circuit.
