Electrical Safety
The static discharged by human bodies can damage static-sensitive components on the boards.
When installing and maintaining the equipment, observe appropriate electrostatic safety precautions
to prevent personnel injuries or device damage.
When operating a device in an electrostatic sensitive area, you must take electrostatic-discharge
(ESD)-preventive measures. These include wearing ESD-preventive gloves, an ESD-preventive wrist
strap, and ESD-preventive clothes to avoid personnel injury or device damage.
To prevent damage to the device, pay attention to the following during operations:
•
Do not touch devices with bare hands because ESD from the human body may damage the
electrostatically sensitive elements on a board.
•
When dealing with the server or any of the internal components, wear an ESD-preventive wrist
strap, ESD-preventive gloves, and ESD-preventive suit.
About replacing a power supply in a Veritas appliance
This document describes how to replace a 5150 Appliance power supply while the appliance is
operating. One of the power supplies must be operating at all times. If both power supplies must be
removed at the same time, the shutdown procedure must be performed on the appliance before a
power supply is removed. Contact the Veritas Field Service Coordinators.
This repair can be accomplished with the appliance installed in the rack.
