Caution:
Hazardous voltages are present. To reduce the risk of electric shock and
danger to personal health, follow the instructions.
Electrostatic Discharge Safety
Devices that are sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD), such as the motherboard,
PCIe cards, drives, processors, and memory DIMMs require special handling.
Caution:
The boards and drives contain electronic components that are extremely
sensitive to static electricity. Ordinary amounts of static electricity from
clothing or the work environment can destroy components. Do not touch the
components along their connector edges.
Do the following when handling ESD-sensitive components:
• Use an antistatic wrist strap.
Wear an antistatic wrist strap when handling components such as drive
assemblies, boards, or cards. When servicing or removing server components,
disconnect the power cords from the server. Attach an antistatic strap to your wrist
and to a metal area on the chassis. Following this practice equalizes the electrical
potentials between you and the server.
Note:
An antistatic wrist strap is not included in the Accessory Kit for the
server. However, antistatic wrist straps are included with optional
components.
• Use an antistatic mat.
Place ESD-sensitive components such as the motherboard, DIMMS (memory
modules), and other printed circuit board (PCB) cards on an antistatic mat. The
following items can be used as an antistatic mat:
– Antistatic bag used to wrap an Oracle replacement part
– Oracle ESD mat (orderable item)
– Disposable ESD mat (shipped with some replacement parts or optional system
components)
