Server Warnings and Cautions

HP ProLiant ML370 Generation 3 Server Maintenance and Service Guide
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment, use two
or more people to safely unload the rack from the pallet. An empty 42U rack weighs
115 kg (253 lb), is over 2.1 m (7 ft) tall, and may become unstable when moved on its
casters. Handle the rack from both sides as it rolls down the ramp from the pallet. Do
not stand in front of the rack.
CAUTION: Always begin by mounting the heaviest item on the bottom of the rack. Continue
to populate the rack from the bottom to the top.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the hot-plug
drives and the internal system components to cool before touching.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to the equipment:
•
Do not disable the power cord grounding plug. The grounding plug is an important
safety feature.
•
Plug the power cord into a grounded (earthed) electrical outlet that is easily
accessible at all times.
•
Unplug the power cord from each power supply to disconnect power to the
equipment.
WARNING: Because the rack allows you to stack server components in a vertical
rather than a horizontal plane, you must take precautions to provide for rack stability
and safety to protect both personnel and property. Heed all cautions and warnings
throughout the installation instructions that came with the server.
CAUTION: Protect the server from power fluctuations and temporary interruptions with a
regulating uninterruptible power supply (UPS). This device protects the hardware from
damage caused by power surges and voltage spikes and keeps the system in operation
during a power failure.
CAUTION: Do not operate the server for extended periods without the access panel.
Operating the server without the access panel results in improper airflow and improper cooling
that can lead to thermal damage.
