CAUTION: Protect the server from power fluctuations and temporary interruptions with a
regulating uninterruptible power supply. This device protects the hardware from damage
caused by
power surges and voltage spikes and keeps the system in operation during a power
failure.
Rack warnings and caution
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment, be sure that:
• The leveling jacks are extended to the floor.
• The full weight of the rack rests on the leveling jacks.
• The stabilizing feet are attached to the rack if it is a single-rack installation.
• The racks are coupled together in multiple-rack installations.
• Only one component is extended at a time. A rack may become unstable if more than one
component is extended for any reason.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or equipment damage when unloading a
rack:
• At least two people are needed to safely unload the rack
from the pallet. An empty 42U rack
can weigh as much as 115 kg (253 lb), can stand more than 2.1 m (7 ft) tall, and might
become unstable when being moved on its casters.
• Never stand in front of the rack when it is rolling down the ramp from the pallet. Always
handle the rack from both sides.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment, adequately
stabilize the rack before extending a component outside the rack. Extend only one component
at a time. A rack may become unstable if more than one component is extended.
WARNING:
When installing a server in a telco rack, be sure that the rack frame is adequately
secured at the top and bottom to the building structure.
CAUTION: Do not operate the server for long periods with the front drive cages extended.
When the front drive cages are extended while the server is powered on, do one of the
following:
• If the iLO 08-HD Max
sensor reading is reporting a temperature value, monitor the status of
the front drive health/thermal LED ("Front panel LEDs and buttons" on page 7). When this
LED starts flashing amber, immediately slide the drive cages back into the chassis and
keep them there until the LED turns green.
• If the iLO 08-HD Max sensor reading is reporting an N/A value, monitor how long the drive
cages have been out of the chassis. Before reaching the 140 sec mark, slide the drive
cages back into the chassis and keep them there for at least 300 sec before extending them
out again.
Failure to observe this caution will result in improper airflow and insufficient cooling that can
lead to thermal damage.
Identifying the contents of the server shipping carton
Unpack the server shipping carton and locate the materials and documentation necessary for installing
the server. All the rack mounting hardware necessary for installing the server into the rack is included with
the rack or the server.
