Working inside the server with the power on

Attention:

Static electricity that is released to internal server components when

the server is powered-on might cause the server to halt, which might result in the
loss of data. To avoid this potential problem, always use an electrostatic-discharge
wrist strap or other grounding system when working inside the server with the
power on.

The server supports hot-plug, hot-add, and hot-swap devices and is designed to
operate safely while it is turned on and the cover is removed. Follow these
guidelines when you work inside a server that is turned on:

v

Avoid wearing loose-fitting clothing on your forearms. Button long-sleeved shirts
before you work inside the server; do not wear cuff links while you are working
inside the server.

v

Do not allow your necktie or scarf to hang inside the server.

v

Remove jewelry, such as bracelets, necklaces, rings, and loose-fitting wrist
watches.

v

Remove items from your shirt pocket, such as pens and pencils, that might fall
into the server as you lean over it.

v

Avoid dropping any metallic objects, such as paper clips, hairpins, and screws,
into the server.
