Purpose

This document describes the process for replacing a power supply in a 5U84 Storage Shelf.

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.

Attention: A HA or multi-node appliance is serviced in the same manner as a single node appliance.

This section describes how to remove and replace a power supply in a 5U84 Storage Shelf.

Caution: You must complete a power supply swap within three minutes. Leaving the power supply

slot open for longer than three minutes can result in the appliance overheating and cause other

components to fail.
