Installation Safety Precautions
Follow these safety precautions:
•
Dell recommends that only individuals with rack-mounting experience install the SC9000 storage
system in a rack.
•
Make sure the storage system is always fully grounded to prevent damage from electrostatic
discharge.
•
When handling the storage system hardware, use an electrostatic wrist guard (not included) or a
similar form of protection.
The chassis must be mounted in a rack. The following safety requirements must be considered when the
chassis is being mounted:
•
The rack construction must be capable of supporting the total weight of the installed chassis. The
design should incorporate stabilizing features suitable to prevent the rack from tipping or being
pushed over during installation or in normal use.
•
To avoid danger of the rack toppling over, slide only one chassis out of the rack at a time.
Electrical Safety Precautions
Always follow electrical safety precautions to avoid injury and damage to Storage Center equipment.
WARNING: Disconnect power from the storage controllers when removing or installing
components that are not hot-swappable. When disconnecting power, first power down the
storage controllers using the Dell Storage Client and then unplug the power cords from all the
power supplies in the storage controllers.
